Local business are buyers of my local travel, aerial and landscape photos. I've found prints of my work hanging at local business including a car dealership, assisted living facility, and restaurants (plus many web sites). The buyers clearly search by geography and subject. My landscapes and aerials of Ventura County California maybe similar to my Orange County California photos but the customer groups and their searches are very different. Adobe seems to be missing this.

It happened to me too. I was opted out... I am gradually removing my portfolio anyway. Sales are down 94% since 2016. Little to lose by leaving.

I used to make groups in catalog manager to study sales numbers. All that is lost. Viewing top performers in insights produces a giant list ordered by total earnings. Sorting by date or file number would work but it's not an option.
Is there anyway to see past sales for an image via a search selection? Thanks

The IRS lowered the 1099K reporting threshold from $20K and 200 transactions to $5K and 200 transactions. Next year it lowers again to $600. Double reporting of income (1099 misc from agencies and 1099K from paypal) will be a problem for many this year.
I'm not sure how to address it on my tax form.. I'm seeing conflicting information currently.

100% scumbag agency, everyone should delete their content from there ASAP.
Yes. I deleted all my videos and illustrations yesterday.
FYI: I deleted all my videos at 123rf weeks ago.. but they are still selling them. My email to support has gone unanswered. Best double check to see if they actually delete them.

Is there any use that Getty/Istock showing daily updating downloads count ? What's the use of downloads showing daily instead of showing earnings and downloads on 20th of next month?
RPD is not fixed, we don't know what RPD we get next month, by knowing the downloads count, can we know the earnings???
no...Not.
When they can update the downloads count/ what files got sold and under what plan, Why cant they update earnings?
What they are doing in the background till 20th of next month?
They simply don't want to. They used to report earnings daily.. and they can again.. if they wanted to. But they don't.

I saw one of my photos in the Guardian during February 2024. They gave me credit and listed Alamy but a sale never posted. I would complain but.. I don't need 6.

Next quarterly report will be released in 4 days.
If our sales are an indication of their sales... maybe time to short their stock.

I'm receiving 35 custom video sales. I would like to opt out of those.

I always get afraid when get batch sales. Like 5 sales for 1 dollar lol. One time I got maybe 10 sales in a couple minutes. But why someone would do that?
Maybe a art director who makes $1000 a day is working up examples for a boss who makes a $1,000,000 a month. They are not going to care about wasting $1 per download.

I use photoshop. GraphicConverter 11 will work too. It's my favorite photo browser.

The lack of a partner program opt out is why I removed my images from Panther.

Yes I deleted all Canstock material the day they announced their closure. I didn't trust waiting on them to do it.

I just checked my old notes. Seems Agefotostock is or was a Canstock partner. If so those photos should of been taken down. Actually I see two collections with my photos - one has CanStockPhoto in the file names.. the other must be from a second partner.

1200 of my photos are already there. Who are they partners with? Getty perhaps?

Does anyone upload videos to an FTP server?
They stopped accepting video a couple of years ago.
Not surprised, my 1200 videos have only made $7- this year. Might as well remove them.

If every thing is free. What is the upside for a contributor? What is the return per download?
So far it looks like a reason to avoid Blackbox.

Any progress? My renewal time approaches. The blue bar keeps tempting me to click.

If you and only have the raw file... and the sequence of shots it was taken with. I would appeal and send screen shots of the raw files.
These were Midjourney creations and the OP has screen shots of him creating the images - but no RAW files for this type of image
Thanks.. I should of read the whole thread.
