Realmente eres un ignorante de la musica espaola, Melody es una artista conocida en Espaa desde pequea y es musica que agrada a los espaoles. De vez en cuando si que enviamos a gente random para reirnos del concurso.
Spain! Say straight out that you are not happy with the last place at Eurovision! 
The songs that Spain sends that are truly bad and unrepresentative of Spanish music have a purpose, which isn't to win the contest. Spain's main industry is party tourism, beach tourism, and disco tourism. Spanish songs are only intended to remind Germans, English, and Dutch people that they can come to our beaches to spend their euros drinking sangria and watching scantily clad girls dance. Yes, it's tacky and vulgar, but money is money.
So it turns out that Spain cannot compete with other countries in terms of the quality of its songs, but at the same time it pursues an aggressive policy. Why was it necessary to attack Israel even before the contest, as if the Spanish know what is going on there. I think that Spain has a bad attitude towards Israel, and this has been going on since the Middle Ages. But, it is even more unclear why attack Ukraine? I am very puzzled by Spain's policy, it is aggressive and unfair. And this is despite the fact that Spain took almost the last place in Eurovision. Are the Spanish really such envious people? 
This is why Spanish policy is: | Category | Palestinians (20002025) | Israelis (20002025) | | | --------------- | ---------------------- | --------------------- | ------------------------- | | Civilians killed | 70,00075,000 | 1,2001,500 | | | Children killed | 13,00015,000 | 150200 | (Human Rights Watch[1]) | [1]: https://www.hrw.org/world-report/2025/country-chapters/israel-and-palestine?utm_source=chatgpt.com "WORLD REPORT 2025: Israel and Palestine | Human Rights Watch"

"Israel had no place on the stage. (If they can ban Russia, they can ban Israel too). Sending an Oct 7 survivor is begging for pity votes."
Can never fathom why some people are ok with what Hamas did on Oct 7.
Who agrees with what Hamas did? Don't be fooled, no one says that. We all condemn Hamas's attacks. What we're saying is that Israel is committing genocide and is a murderous, terrorist, brainwashing state that simply seeks to steal territory from its neighbors by murdering them. It's been doing so for decades. It's well known that hundreds of thousands of euros from Israel have been used to make calls to vote for their own country in Eurovision. And it's well known that the main sponsor of Eurovision is an Israeli company. And it's well known that envelopes of money end up in the hands of Eurovi$$ion organizers, because Eurovi$$ion is just another propaganda tool.

What is the point of having to choose categories, if the search is done by keywords? Better to keep things simple, fewer requests to the server equals faster response.

Even automated online payments are not free. You need software, a payment service provider or payment gateway. This costs money and the prices usually depend on the invoice volume.
In this respect, Dreamstime's argument is understandable.
I prefer the high payout limit to lower sales revenue 
Payment companies offer these transfers, services and free software to many sender, as they take a good cut in the currency exchange, with the loss of the recipient of course.

Well, $100 made sense years ago when DT worked well and could be reached in a few weeks/months, but this situation has changed. While it is true that they are within their rights since it is known and agreed information, it would be good if they knew how to adapt to their new situation and lower that limit, especially given that payment is an automatic and cost-free process.
And if they are not able to automate, it is because they are outdated and out of the market, and therefore they will die little by little, ergo it would make no sense to continue uploading content there.

"Dreamstime makes it extremely easy to upload." extremely??
For me it is one of the most tedious to upload, so much so that I hardly upload anything there anymore. 2023 stopped selling me almost nothing, and in 2024 nothing. Port of almost 30k images.

yeah, it's been much slower these last few weeks. I continue uploading as I usually do, they just accumulate. I see that images uploaded two days ago are approved, but those uploaded a week ago are still in the queue.

I upload to fineartamerica and pictorem those photos that I think might look good in a canvas in someone's living room or a mug, but I only make less than $50 a year.

The programmers have appropriated copyright work to make their product, and as proved in the paper I referenced that work is still accessible using the right prompts (though this is not all that relevant as the issue is the appropriation of the work for commercial purposes without the copyright owners consent).
Although legally there may be loose details that programmers have infringed upon, the point of AI image creation, as a concept, is exactly the same one that we have all learned to read, write, draw or photograph. I have read dozens of books by cartier bresson, Avedon, Erwit, Leibovitz... and seeing their photos is how I have learned to photograph, and I have created my own photographs with theirs in my mind. That's the same thing they do, and it can't be avoided, because the photos are published, open to anyone's eye.
Years ago you had to pay to enter the museums, now it's not even necessary.
tell that to the musicians who got sued after listening to others work and using it it as "inspiration".
fascinating how many stock photographer seem to have an international law degree.
I think there is a difference between inspiring and plagiarizing, in many cases separated by a fine line. That is why there are thousands of music plagiarism accusation cases that are resolved in favor of the plaintiff and many thousands more in favor of the defendant. I'm just saying that things are not absolute black or white. And personally I have not seen any cases of plagiarism by AIs yet. It is like saying that the first photographer who took a photo of an apple on a white background has the right to accuse the next 30,000 photos of apples on a white background that are in the SS catalog.

yeah, 22 days here. If more photos come in than come out, the queue will increase little by little, until the wave passes. You have to start uploading the content for Christmas right now!

Very stable over the last year, after a decline since 2021, the same pattern as Dreamstime and other small agencies.
