No. I've done it other times for my photos (I found one even today). I'm a bit tired ... Thieves are everywhere but the stock website don't care ...
If you look at those profiles you will find manga illustrations, cars disney images, movie scenes, football team brands ...

When I paid my first annual subscription it said in the terms and conditions that you can cancel your yearly membership fee at any time, but now I can't find where to do that. Do I have to close my credit card because of this? I hate these kinds of fees, which are secretly renewed after a year.

Remove your CC number, they won't renew.
Ha Ha, reply from FAA support? It's like spotting Bigfoot. People have reported that, but mostly unconfirmed.

What do you get when you are premium membership? I ask you, because i don't have it. It is worth?

Honest answer, it depends. I was free account for years, and had two sales. November of 2020 I went pay and the account paid for itself in a month or two.
No way for me to know what's going to sell or not. I'm surprised at what does, just as much as what doesn't. I have someone who wanted to buy some prints. I uploaded the photos to FAA, they can pick the prints, size, style and anything. I do nothing but collect the percentage. (or in truth, FAA doesn't do much except have one of their vendors, fill and ship the order?)
Basic advantages. Personal website, that links to Pixels marketplace. https://pete-klinger.pixels.com/ they make all kinds of products, this isn't just prints.
Shopping cart widget for your own website if you have one. ** The other advantage is, you aren't limited to the free 25 images. **
Not sure if there are any other real benefits, just those three. People claim that paid accounts get better search placement?
So if you want to upload 200 images, or if you want to promote your own free personalized link, or if you have a website and want to feature your own images. That's nice. $30 a year. Some people like it, some people have found they don't.
My answer is, spend the $30 and see. Just remember (like the person who started this) you need to remove your CC data or it will auto renew. Maybe if anyone tries the site, you might want to sign up and then immediately remove the CC data. I wonder if FAA will write you at renewal time?
Anyway, when your paid premium account goes free again, you'll have 25 images again.
NOT FOR MICROSTOCK STYLE IMAGES.
