June's sale figures now available

I have submitted Firefly images to Adobe and the success rate is not spectacular, particularly if including people in the image. Like all AI images you need to examine them closely before submitting.

i have images.of mine given for free by IStock/Getty to two newspaper groups, no compensation. By their standards 40 cents is relative wealth. my sympathies.

It is appreciated, what they have to do now is permit the use of normal english.....

Istock have a version of this, they just don't pay you for the images!!

Royalty figures are now available

March royalties ARE now available!!!!!!!!

Since Getty is a public company, I wonder did their auditors spot something that led to this mass refund.

An image of mine has been published numerous times, always credited to Getty, the last payment I received for it , for pennies, was in May 2023.  I have emailed and requested an explanation. no reply unfortunately. i do wonder about the credibility of this company.

Also have negative sales.

Thank you for all the valuable suggestions. I am still not able to find the a buyer and I can transfer the full rights of the images and will not be using them in future for my portfolio.

Let me know if someone is still interested.

Thanks for your reply. i normally use Mid Journey but on the last upload, i used DAll E, and not successfully.

I'm curious if the AI regections are DALL E or Mid Journey, or both?

Alamy has an arrangement with Pond5, which is where the videos you see on Alamy, originate. They are not accepting videos directly yet.

Are any of the stock agencies accepting Google Earth videos?

Thank you

How do i know how many files are in my portfolioo in Istock?

It's a good idea but you may find Chat limits the amount of data it processes. Recently I used it on twenty images and Chat refused the 21st, telling me to come back two hours later.

arrived this morning.

First of all thank you for creating it. I tried it on an old image from 1933 and it did very well in recognising cultural issues and potential cultural problems. The caption is spot on and  it created 26 keywords. Well done.

This story might be relevant to this thread, It concerns Roma Football club/Adidas and an Alamy watermark.
