**AHEM**

Feel free to shout that from the rooftops (or monthly earning polls from certain third-party forums). We're not opposed to photographers letting others know that their earnings are growing with Elements and PhotoDune. ;-)

Seriously though, super excited to see that things are working out well and your earnings are growing. I am curious how this might impact your plans for future uploading/publishing. Does more earnings change how often and how many items you upload? What impact does tooling play in this?

I'm also curious to know what, if anything we can do to help you understand our content requirements and subject matter needs. We're hoping to ramp up what you get from our team in the way of feedback and input so, happy to hear what format is best for you.

It would help if your reviewers didn't arbitarily just reject everything and then if you did how about showing the rejections somewhere?

So at least we would know if an image is rejected?

The elements pages don't work you can't upload anything directly.

There's no way to download earnings reports for elements.

The whole site is just a mess

This hopping between Photodune and elements is a real pain.

Looks like July earnings for Envato are already calculated. My item earnings were doubled from June + even higher bonus (120$$) than in June!! Go Envato!

dpimborough · « **Reply #28 on:** September 13, 2017, 15:46 »

Yeah right...

I see the Elements offerings are suffering from an over stuffing of similars from their pet authors.

Try and follow their airy fairy ideas on what they want but some contributors are being allowed to dump dozens of poor quality similars and the annoying thing is they are obviously being accepted.

I checked with a buyer in the US and they said the quality was very poor on a lot of searches.

So what gives James? Do you guys really know what you want?

Dumc · « **Reply #29 on:** September 14, 2017, 07:43 »

Yeah right. I'm sorry you're so butt-hurt cause you got booted out.

My bonus has not calculated yet. How many images do you have in your portfolio Dumc ?

Dumc · « **Reply #31 on:** September 14, 2017, 10:35 »

Did you actually went to the main page? I haven't received any e-mail yet, but clicked on the link for June earnings in my e-mail and it showed my July earnings.

I have about 75 files and I've earned more than 123rf, DT, and Bigstock combined, where I have 1100+ files.

And I have fewer images than you but made more money LOL

Oh yes, now I see it, thanks

.

I also received $120 bonus. Does everyone gets the same bonus regardless the number of images in portfolio or the number of sales ?

By the way, shouldn't we receive the report for August ? We have middle September and just only received the report for July....

If you're in, you'd know that 120$ is bonus, not my earnings from images, I never said how much I've made only from images, so how would you even remotely know, how much I've made with my files?

Well to be fair, you're not exactly taking the high road by saying "I didn't get booted out they kept me, so up yours" and "And I have fewer images than you but made more money LOL "

And he has a point... you don't know how much money he makes there, so how can you say that you make more money than him? Did I miss a post where he stated sales earnings, other than the $120 bonus?

Selective recall? You obviously read the "Yeah right. I'm sorry you're so butt-hurt cause you got booted out."

The thread was about the bonus not earnings. I don't give a fig about how much he makes

SpaceStockFootage · « **Reply #39 on:** September 16, 2017, 16:14 »

So why bother to say that you earn more than him?

Dumc · « **Reply #40 on:** October 13, 2017, 14:35 »

August Envato earnings out.

angelawaye · « **Reply #41 on:** October 13, 2017, 21:15 »

Sammy is right, he did start it with at "butt-hurt" comment ...
Congrats on the bonuses guys

Dumc · « **Reply #42 on:** October 14, 2017, 03:12 »

Actually he started with "yeah right" basically calling me a liar which I don't like beeing called, because it's not in my nature to make things up, like some people tend to do here.

Anyway, even higher bonus then previus month, but slightly less earnings from photos, overall earnings a few cents higher than in July. Go Envato!

"Yeah right" does not imply in anyway you are a liar Slovenian dude; yeah nah

My orignal post was concerned with Envatos double standards on image acceptance

In my part of the world "yeah right" was more to do with your "Go Envato!" comment and the fact that (as I commented) Envato don't appear to applying any logical standards to image curation.

But if you feel "butt hurt" I suggest you go lie down in a dark room for a little while

LOOL

P.S. He? maybe she would be more accurate

Does anyone know how to download a full report from Elements? I just got my 1099 but it is for the whole tamale of sales, not just what I earned. Now I have to go dissect everything to get my tax guy a realistic net income number. I have the CVS file from Photodune, just not from Elements and I cannot find any downloadable link nor do they split out anything on their earnings report in Elements.

Also if anyone in the USA has received a 1099 from Envants it looks like it is combined with NET Elements and GROSS Photodune. Very poor tax reporting structure.

I remember having to ask Envato for a report. I emailed their support and they gave me a sales report.

I ended up doing that, Ron. Simply amazing that we can't just get a clean 1099.
