I wonder when Microsoft will end up the same? Maybe Apple will eat them up...
No youre very wrong. Its destruction for a purpose, i.e. its done on purpose and for a reason and the IS admin cant do anything about it because they are themselves just minor players in all this. Got nothing to do with it.So far the strategy has worked out superb. Getty has got them exactly where they want them and frankly it might all be for the better? after all as independants we were not treated much better before, were we? Personally I am much rather in the hands of Getty then the present wobbling IS admin.Besides at the moment IS, is selling very well for me. Cant complain at all.

Or not.I have noticed that when first you begin to use the word "little", it will only take a few posts before you use the word "girl".I have also said how that sort of communication is labeled.

Whilst I realise that this doesn't necessary mean that he's staying at the helm precisely as he is now, I see nothing but optimism for the future of SS in this interview. He doesn't sound like someone who wants to walk away from his creation:http://techcrunch.com/2012/10/17/shutterstock-ceo-jon-oringer-on-ipo-success-the-future-of-video/

Problem is and will alway be after an IPO. Once the shareholders start their yearning for profits the troubles start. Its a classic and always follows and to think SS will be the first one not to be effected, well thats to be naive.Anyhow, wait and see.

Ever heard of companies called Apple, Microsoft or Google (to pick a few out of countless others)? They never did anything after their IPO's did they? Sank without trace shortly afterwards I expect.Do you just make these ridiculous statements because you have nothing better to do? You can't possibly believe the nonsense that you write. Oringer still owns 54% of the business. It's his baby as well as being almost the entirety of his wealth. He's not going to blow it because someone like you buys a few shares and then starts clamouring for instantaneous extra profits __ which is the sort of idiotic thing you would probably do if you turned up at a shareholders' meeting.SSTK have already projected both revenues and profit until the end of 2013 in their Q3 report, 15th Oct. Did you even bother to read it before making your absurd 'predictions'?

I couldn't care less about istockphoto.. despite making 1/6 of what I used to make on istock with less files, my micro income went up so they can go to hell with their commissions..
