Pixmac merges with Pond5
sdeva:
Just wondering ... did this merger develop as expected? Apologies if there's another thread I should be looking at? ???
It seemed like a nice-ish bit of news - one of the few good ones - thus the curiosity!
Jo Ann Snover:
When I cashed out at pixmac this week, the payment came from Pond5 - so in that sense they are merged.
In terms of the images or sites merging, they're still separate. Sales (for photos) don't seem to be great at either (although I have only a fraction of my stuff at either site - was sort of waiting for something to happen with the merger before doing more uploading, but...)

Same here. Never got a sales lift from the merger.

Thanks for the update :)
I wanted to give them a go and was wondering whether its better to go thru Pixmac or Pond5 (since I have mostly photos). But I guess that may be a premature question if the merger is still not fully implemented - and maybe hard to predict how exactly it will go.
CrackerClips:
I stopped uploading pictures to Pixmac a long time ago because we were told that images would be mirrored at both so I just upload to Pond5. Unfortunately this hasn't happened yet as far as I'm aware and I'm wondering if it's ever going to happen or should I just start uploading to Pixmac directly again?
