Call them and explain! resubmitting to SS, is not a good idea. Their editors are by far the best within Micro-stock and there is almost always a reason for rejections.

Thanks for your idea, but it is useless to call them as their hotline is only for CUSTOMERS but not for submitters...
They leave your message but you will never get a reply...

seriously, i hope guys in shutterstock are reading this. Not everyone is badass that want to resubmit to ruin up your site. There is a lot of way to control quality of images..like alamy or limit uploads based on rejections rate.

it cause a lot of miserable things in my life, when i am not sure if suspension means termination of account forever or 1 month, 2 month, 3 months? and i am not sure is that means i lost all the remaining earnings in shutterstock and even bigstock? i am not sure whether i can reapply as contributors, and start to earn from $0.25.. even i had reached $0.36

I have moved on with other things, but I always feel like i had done something so evil and shameful that my money is deserved to be gone and suspended, and when i asked what should i do, i get mocked by other contributors, and i should not tell more about it and i may really get warned.

there is a lot of way to control quality of image banks, but in this way, it actually make someone life difficult.

It is still a good agency that i want to contribute, i hope they will update us people who get suspended with details. I will still tell people to contribute it, since i know it is the site that really sells, if there is a strict policy that want to stop people submitting bad images, i would like them to put in faq tell us how many warnings we will get, how long the suspension, blah blah and really warns us that the earnings will be confiscated if we violate their rules.

in the mean time, i hope i will still get back my account, and start to submit to shutterstock again.

same with mtkang, I was not even in 0.36 club and I will reach very soon actually...I know it is my fault this time to overlook the first warning and I really know I need to apologize to them, in which I won't resubmit forever in ss unless they call me to do so. I understand my faults now. Thanks for all other' comments.

I don't want to ruin up my site by resubmittion as long as I do think I edit them to be good again so I resubmit to ss again, I have no bad mind in my mind...I don't have intention to let the reviewers' eyes turns tired. Most of my household earnings are from SS, this really makes my life goes worst...

Maybe I am too green in microstock, I joined last yr so I may not know the rule...so may not be able to understand "resubmission" cause such a big problem...I hope SS can help those who are under suspension and offer them one more chance to reactivate their site. The aim of SS is "Make money by your photos", it is my goal too.....now facing this situation and I am just too young to handle this difficulties....

You said it was your best earnings site, you don't have to get into specifics, but I'd just like to know what ballpark you're in, at least what level, if it's possible. I wonder if they do it to all of the members that resubmit after warnings or do those higher earnings members get more leniency. Because I got 2 warnings and no suspension about 6 months ago, but I was at about 250$/month and getting very close to 36c level. I can't help myself by thinking I'd get suspended if I didn't even earn enough for a monthly payment (100$). Because it was also like that with inspections at least at IS, they were giving me a lot of hard time in the first months, but when I started getting some sells and moving toward bronze they eased up significantly and I got most of my stuff accepted, I'd say at least a third of those would be rejected and I never ever sent borderline stuff in the first months like I do now.

Wut, I am quite similar to you, I earn nearly 300$/mth and raise every single month...I received one warning only but not two, I don't know why they suspend my account without giving me another warning, I MUST NOT resubmit anymore if I got the 2nd warning for sure.
I am now thinking what I can do to reactivate my account, actually many of my images goes to the top page of sales but I know if they suspend for some time, the situation may change a lot...

I need this site for my household, I feel very bad now...

What I can do is to explain to them and give them a call?!

Dear all,

I am a contributor of SS since Mar 2010 in Hong Kong (far away from US). Nice to meet you all.

I want to ask you guys advise for an issue which is quite urgent and serious, my shutterstock account is suspended due to the reasons of resubmitted the rejected images, and I had been receiving warning (1 warning only) My shutterstock account has been disabled and sales , upload are all unavailable to do so.

I have explained to them in the replied my situation. Actually, I didn't resubmit a lot, just reading their comments and choose 3-4 out of 10 to resubmit again and some may even submit after several months. Last batch has 42 photos but nearly 35 of them are new photos! I know it is my fault I must say in this issue but after emailing them , I am afraid they will suspend my account a long time.

Do you know how will they process this issue?? I am eager to know that as it is my main stock income website.
Do I have to call them directly? Or give them more email? Fax? How will they process my case? I need it so bad.

I believe that after this suspension I won't resubmit anymore in shutterstock.

Any one knows what can I do?!! Any people knows someone facing the same problem before?!
