I have to run back and forth few times in a week.
My entire work/settings are on desktop and I love working at desktop. Whenever I have to go to second place, I don't have access to any of my work data.
For second place I can buy a laptop.
I am looking for possible solutions in which my data becomes portable.
What do you guys do in such situation?

I must say that Adobe has best sorting and search algorithm amongst other players.
You get even 1 sale, the system starts to work on sorting it by moving it upwards. This drives more sales and is working well.
On the other side, other websites don't know how to do sorting and are still working on the old school model.

The microstock industry is seeing a lot of competition with steep downfall in the royalty and the other hand inflation is on surge.
How do you all see this and is the microstock future diminishing?
Do the agencies keeping 80-90% cut of our earning fair?

I have created an email long years back in I guess year 2008 with ID say [email protected]and some person has created a new email named [email protected] and now I am getting his emails on my gmail account. I googled and found that gmail system ignores [.] in email ids and all emails having . will land to one email. so hello.world - h.elloworld - hell.oworld etc will go to helloworld my main concern is since I am receiving other person email on my gmail ID can this go vice-versa too? like if someone sends an email to me at helloworld , can the other person with ID hello.world see my emails too?

Recently, I came across many contributors which have used my work in generating similar AI-generated images. Creating and maintaining original works takes time and with such AI tools creating replicas is super easy. This is serious copyright infringement and the companies needs to look into this. Companies should keep the original work and AI generate work as a separate two categories. I feel sad to see this.

I don't usually browse Shutterstock, but today, I was shocked to find 100s of contributors shamelessly uploading my contents to their portfolios.
I'm really upset with Shutterstock by seeing so many infringements on their site.
I feel cheated as this has caused me a lot of losses.
What makes it worse is that Shutterstock keeps the earnings after banning those infringement portfolios... WHY? Isn't it fair for them to compensate the original artists?
As a small contributor, every penny matters to me. Shutterstock is a big company with millions in their accounts. Why should they keep the earnings when it was earned from my content?
I'm feeling lost and don't know how to handle this. Can anyone help?

I referred this group to a friend who is trying to register and not getting activation email...
Is this any bug or the group has stopped taking new registrations?

One of my colleague portfolio got banned due to one design which was similar. His all 6 years efforts was destroyed in just a snap?
Isn't this too brutal way to deal with contributors?
Eventually the big companies became big because of us.

I have a portfolio which have lot of images but Adobe stock only displays 100 maximum? Why?
Same is for search too, only 100 pages for any search term.
Isn't this wrong when there are so many contributors and so big library?

Can anyone share some insights on how much do shutterstock makes in profits in a year?
And how much they pay to their employees including their top Cs in the company?

Whenever we ask agencies to remove the copyright violations, they close the account of culprit and keep their pending account balance themselves, why?
Isn't this unethical?
