It's silver. Where do I change it?

For a single file: Go to "My files", beside each image there's a little pencil icon (if you hover over it with your mouse it says "Index file"), click on that, on the detail page change the "X" price.
Save.
Done.

If you are a little bit into programming I would recommend ExifTool. Needs some time to get into it, but it's very powerful, lets you manipulate IPTC data every way you like...

In my portfolio it looks like a random collection of old, unsold or rarely sold images.
The least likely adjective describing the collection of images found on the first page would be "popular".

ETA: some newer images are mixed in from the second half of the first page onwards, but no real bestsellers (neither overall bestsellers nor recent good selling images) are to be found on the first three pages...

If "digital" never came along, I wouldn't be reading your post on a thing called " the internet".

And the new site comes with exciting news!!!


- a comission cut.

40% instead of 50%.

This commission change happened 1 year ago.  We grandfathered all users who were at 52%, and their commission remains at 52%.  All new accounts after we made the change last year were at 40%.

The site is up and running, but there are still a few things we need to fix.  We will make an announcement later today.  Thanks for your patience.

Ok, thanks for clarifying. I didn't remember that change. Apologies for that.

Seems to be up and running, but I can't log in, it's not accepting my password...

Information request: Free software to put together timelapse. (no other information specified, other than that the friend would like to try timelapse, so they haven't tried it before).
Answer (one among others): LRTimelapse.

Even if you use the free version of LRTimelapse, you still need Lightroom....

They asked me as well, some months ago.
If I remember the discussion with them correctly, their standard license inlcudes "print merchandise", which requires an EL everywhere else...

� Also, using a medium format camera or a DSLR with 40+ megapixels can help if your lens is up for the task.

No, quite the opposite...
A larger sensor reduces DOF (all other things being equal), so if your ultimate goal is everything in focus in the frame, a smaller sensor like in a compact camera might even be better.
Obviously that introduces other problems with overall image quality, and - as this is in the alamy forum - they don't really want images from compact cameras.
But going to medium format itself does nothing to increase overall sharpness.

I'd side with BaldricksTrousers, learning about hyperfocal distance is the way to go.

In any case, feel free to suggest new helpful features since we're very open and implement a lot of the things users request of us.

Cheers.

Ok, since you're asking for suggestions:

Currently the app is built around sales only, i.e. images without sales do not show up.

Would it be possible to retrieve all accepted images from the agencies (and let us assign them to collections)?
This would allow to better see how new images are selling (imagine some kind of "automatic" collection by upload date), what's the sell through rate (sellers vs. non-sellers) per agency/upload date/collection, calculate RPI per agency/collection...

Other than that:
- possibility to sort images by downloads / revenue inside of collections
- keyword search to ease assigning images to collections
- more statistics features for collections, e.g. flexible timelines showing downloads/revenue, total and per agency

Maybe I'll come up with more...

I have to say I do like it a lot.

Thanks!

Seriously, nobody is going to insist on reversing the traffic flow in the UK, it would cause chaos.

Certainly changing something so fundamental from one day to the other would be too hard to accept.
How about a nice, smooth sliding introduction: Start with the cars with even plate numbers first, those with uneven numbers follow a month later...






 

I started believing in the "cap theory" for two reasons:
1) As per discussion - I have 40 sales a day +-2 with very few fluctuations.
2) Additional story - I did a big push in last 6 months and increased my port size on SS from 10,000 to over 20,000 very quickly. The outcome? Sales increased from 25 a day to 40 a day - reasonable result. BUT 90% of my current sales are my new images! Only 6 months ago, I had stable 25 sales a day, now the same old 10,000 images only contributes to some 4-5 sales a day, other 35 sales a day are new images. Why aren't there 35 sales from new images and 25 (or at least 20) from the old portfolio?
My theory is the "cap". New images are obviously preferred, but earnings are capped and therefore the old images can't sell as much as they used to.

If there is any (partial) overlap in subject matter / style between your old and your new files, than that is easily explained by your new files taking sales from your old files - either they are better or appear higher in search because they are newer.
