We need to strike somehow. When the professional contributors stop uploading the good unique images, then the shutterstock become the world largest image crapyard. Will see that Jon Oringer when loose the buyers. No one buys trash
It is nonsense. I make 100pics/month in 2012 and my earnings go up. I make 150pics/Week in 2016 and my earnings half by 2012.
Am I stupid why still working to shutterstock? Yes I am stupid. from today i stopped the uploading.

The new contributors selling nothing on shutterstock. Im started in 2012 and i sell the old pictures 2012-2015. I working hard but nobody buy the newest images from 2016. Maybe my istock is going up a little bit. Shutterstock going down.

(I just speak about vectors) I belive the problem is the shutterstock flooded over with craps. The shutterstock is the playground of flooders and spammers, without qualitiy work. This is the new acceptted vectors: The screenshots speak: Flooders working like droids. And this continued over hundred pages. disappointing.

My earning falling like a poisoned fly.
The buyers go to another agency because the shuttetstock portfolio it's bulk of crap. I make new 50 new vectors, accapted in monday, and i sell nothing from them. I am realy Angry and frustrated I stopped uploading the new pictures. We sould boycott, stop the uploading the quality pictures, even the spammers, are there. I belive the problem is the: tons of crap in the shutterstock.

Something happening. Sales go down. Search engine is sucks. The image reviewing working like stupid program. Accepting the craps. Newer sell the new contects. Too many spam in the new contects. Too many spam everywhere. Less quality pictures, more spammy scrap. The professional contributors stop the uploading, the sammer uploading more and more and more. Chrasing uploading. Annoyin, stupid rejection reason. Disappearing pictures from portfolio. Buggy earings showing, buggy forum, buggy gallerystats. We get threatening email, but the spams still on shutterstock. Work harder for less money. My monthly earings half Less than two years ago, but my portfolio is triple now. We love it.

Hello! You can't do something, just reporting the stoled works in servers. (freakshare, nitroflare, uploaded.com ....) I found my pictures (about 300-400 images) Just this method working, I've tried everything. Send message. No answer. Send another message no answer. Send message to shutterstock they said they do everything, and the thru is: they do nothing This is hard work one by one reporting to servers, but this is the one way. Sorry my english.

is anyone with increase in sales?
Nobody:( I talked with many contributors. and everyone said this. Maybe some "lucky" people with increase sales. The demand grows not, but the number of contributors grows. The same amount of money get more contributors. Sorry my English.

Same. Last week sales fall down like christmas sales.
I assume you guys mean low sales. Just as a reminder, christmas may be the best selling time of the year for some contributors...
Really? I've never heard anyone saying the week, or fortnight, around Christmas/New Year as being anything but dire, which I'd expect. That's not the same as saying someone's Christmas port might perform very well for them.
Maybe imaginable ..those designers who have 50%-70% of christmas theme pictures from his portfolio.

I am vector artist and sales down.. down... and down..every month but a work harder and harder and harder. In vector category too many artist who is making just one icon in one picture (spam), and from one icon making 100-1000 picture just change background color. New acceptable images (in vector) from 1000 images, just 10-20 of quality design. And this is the point. Nobody search images by new category, because it can not find quality images. Another agancy where not accept this (just icon) pictures and other "spams", my earnings go up.. Sorry my english..
