they said 1 month ago that they like my portfolio on photodune and they will keep it - although my sales there are pathetic - and what about this envato elements site - I don t understand what they want me to do - and there is no uploud link on pd - chaos !

I don't know if I'm out or not. I ask them, had no answer except to wait the email. I can't upload since november. I just want to get my email saying I'm out and got paid and forget about envato forefer !

Total shambles.

I'm definitely getting a mixed message. On the one hand I'm being kicked out. On the other, I'm having my best month there in a couple of years. The longer they hold off deleting my account the better it'll be. Reconsidering my expulsion would be even better, but that's too much to hope for.

angelawaye · « **Reply #8 on:** March 20, 2017, 09:50 »

Maybe they are planning something ... a mind game before they offer some exciting news ...

sgoodwin4813 · « **Reply #9 on:** March 20, 2017, 09:57 »

I'm still waiting for them to close my account and send me the money too. I don't think they had a timeline other than "soon" in the e-mail so they apparently are in no hurry.

Maybe someone there has worked out just how many best selling images they are about to pull......do I hear the echo of a penny dropping I wonder........

Yes, what does mean "soon" compared to the age of the Universe?

Same here, 1 sale per month or even less, yet they somehow decided they like my port. Although I have a "badge" that apparently one of my files was trending. Which file and when, I don't know. I also don't know how can I have a "trending" file with less than 1 sale per month on average.

LouisPhotos · « **Reply #14 on:** March 31, 2017, 08:54 »

This is the end my friend. My portfolio is deleted but this is not really the end buyer will go on other website anyway.

sgoodwin4813 · « **Reply #15 on:** March 31, 2017, 09:46 »

Mine are still up there and even had a sale. One of mine apparently was trending as well but that didn't keep me in their fold. Maybe they've suddenly realized they will have to come up with the cash to pay out the closed accounts and have rethought.

Photodune Envato market has ust effectively commited professional suicide by unceremoneously kicking out so many photographer contributors. Their search engine has now huge content gaps eg.:

newbielink:https://photodune.net/search?as=0&referrer=homepage&term=traumatology%20surgeon&utf8=%E2%9C%93 [nonactive]

Where is the Traumatology surgeon to be seen?

Another example:

newbielink:https://photodune.net/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&term=arthroscopy&as=0&referrer=homepage [nonactive]

Perhaps they were tired and wanted all go unemployed in the agency or perhaps they wanted to do the far superior Shutterstock a huge favour.

now have to wait 1 year for our money? what?

sgoodwin4813 · « **Reply #18 on:** April 09, 2017, 08:59 »

We have to wait a year? Is that what they said? I thought they were going to send us the money expeditiously as soon as they closed the accounts. If they want us to wait a year then maybe it is time for a class-action lawsuit.

I tried to check my account just now and their page won't load - very annoying. I suspect they are planning to run off with the money and keep it.

I got paid on time for March and there is a zero balance for April, since my port has been removed.

It would make sense you got more sales, they've been deleting all the portfolios over the past three months, so there's considerably less competition. Strange they only ditched you now though, most people got the 'you're out' decision months back.

Tabimura · « **Reply #24 on:** August 02, 2017, 02:53 »

They kept a minuscule amount of images out of my 20k portfolio (while sending me emails of praise about the high quality of my content) and logically, those aren't generating any sales. I waited a month, got zero sales, told them to delete my images, close my account and sod off. What a bunch of imbeciles!
In the praise email they even specified photos they especially liked that were actually NOT selected from my portfolio. Sent them an email "uhm, you know, those pictures you liked so bad were not selected", got a reply with "hang on, my bad..." and that told me everything I needed to know about their new approach to fcking things up.
