Title: 3D Studio -- No longer selling Photos?
Post by: Cricket on December 15, 2014, 18:10
Hi All,

I visited 3D studio tonight and it looks like they are no longer selling photos.  The whole site looks completely different. 

It would have been nice if they had told their contributors of the upcoming changes.

Dear Valued 3D Studio Artists and Contributors,

We are taking this opportunity to contact you to let you know that the new
The3DStudio.com (https://t.e2ma.net/click/5iyypc/t1c1rx/1zw5lc) website launched today. 

This is an exciting development for us, and we are working hard to make it an exciting new platform for you so that we can offer the best 3D images, files and collectibles.

You may still contribute 3D models, but moving forward we will no longer be offering applications, stock photography or 2D images.

How the changes affect you

Not ALL artists’ images and files will be transferred and available at launch. While we are working to provide as many files as possible to carry over in the transition, we can only carry over a select few artists to support the site launch.

Again, we will no longer be offering and supporting 2D files and Applications.

We would like to pay out all of the outstanding balances on your accounts.  In order to do this, please fill out and return the attached Tax Forms.

We’d like to thank you for your support in the past, and appreciate your support and understanding moving forward.

Sincerely,

The 3D Studio

I have received following email from them although due to 0 sales I already deleted my images from their site few months ago.

They primarily sold 3d designs. Sorry to see them stop selling my stuff, although they were only about 2x my Stockfresh sales, so not too much. I had pretty much stopped uploading there anyway except a flurry inspired by a good month this spring. Curiously enough 2011 and 2014 were my best years there.

Where do we cash out?  I can't even find my balance.  I haven't looked or uploaded to the site in years but I know I had a balance of $13 in 2012 and even though I think I only had 40 photos there it may be more - I would rather have those earnings than abandon them.  I never got the e-mail.

I always was paid right after the end of the month regardless of small the balance was, even if it was a couple of dollars.
