Hi all!

I've just released version 1.1 of Microstock Monitor, which adds support for iStockPhoto. It seems that iStockPhoto has no concept of monthly downloads (I'm not sure, I got accepted, but don't have any downloads yet), so the "current downloads" field shows "N/A" (as for Lucky Oliver).

It would be awesome if you could grab the latest release (no need to uninstall 1.0) and tell me if and how iStockPhoto stats work for you in Microstock Monitor.

Many thanks!
Michael

Michael, I would be glad to use this handy MSMonitor, but before I do, I would like to know if you were able to fix the bug with the SS 'new post' search page:

http://submit.shutterstock.com/forum/search.php?search_id=newposts

All the posts disappear each time the MSMonitor is refreshed.
I know that I could access every forum individually on SS, but I prefer to have it chronologically all in one page, much more convenient.

Hi Berry,

it's on my ToDo list: http://www.microstockgroup.com/index.php?topic=1209.0 . I will look into that soon and definitely try to resolve it.

Many thanks,
Michael

Hi Berry,

I wrote you a PM. Would be great if we can get in touch more directly in order to discuss the bug and try to resolve it.

All the best,
Michael

Well, just like you said, it shows my current balance, but not the number of downloads. But, anyway, it's great, you don't even need to improve anything else.
Well, if you really want to, maybe you could also include other sites (l123rf, featurepics...) and provide a "minimize to systray" option. As you can see, nothing you should really bother with...

Best

Hi Photosgraphis,

many thanks for testing!

There are actually two things which I have on my mind right now, when it comes to additional features:
1) Adding support for additional agencies. I've been a member of featurepics for 1 month and today signed up with 123rf (membership pending). The reason why featurepics is not in Microstock Monitor yet is that I haven't had a single sale with my 400 photos online (they do very well at other agencies). I've just uploaded my latest patch...maybe it will get better. Once I start getting a few sales there, I will definitely add them to Microstock Monitor. Same for 123rf.

2) I'm considering adding two additional sets of information: Total downloads and Uploads.

What do you guys think?

All the best,
Michael
