I have "problem" with Pond5. I am on Pond5 about a year and i have 200 videos in my portfolio but only 7 views without any sales. Is that normal on this agencies?
I just submitted my first 2 videos to Pont5 and I'm waiting for the review  But I think that it depends on the type of videos. Can you link us your portfolio?

and what if Pinterest starts offering printing services ? with each photo they can pretty well make something like RedBubble if they wanted and make billions, all without giving a crap about copyright.
AHEM.....

this company has nothing to do with pinterest it's more or less something like http://www.pastbook.com/en/ for facebook

In case you have a clip at both frame rates (e.g. a 3d animation), is it ok to submit the same video at 25 AND 29.97fps? Or one will be rejected?

I want those sales tooo!  Well... I'd like any kind of sales right now! CanStockPhoto is still at 0! But my portfolio is quite small, only 136 images online. So I think it's normal!

Too many, in my case... I've lost count... hehe!  And I don't even have a great number of sales....! lol How many times do you check it?

just got 2 batch reviewed at the same time, one was 8 days old the other just 5.
only 1 image rejected, but only because I've started experimenting with vectors and I've used effect (drop shadow) that I should not use.

I upload simoultaneously to all the agencies, and then process the uploaded files starting with the agency that need less clicks  The order is this one: Graphic Leftovers (0 clicks needed) Isignstock (0 clicks needed) StockFresh (0 clicks needed) CanStockPhoto (just a few clicks needed) Veer (just a few clicks needed) 123RF (just a few clicks needed) BigStock (just a few clicks needed) Shutterstock (just a few clicks needed) Panthermedia (just a few clicks needed) Depositphotos (just a few clicks needed) Dreamstime (too many clicks needed) Fotolia (too many clicks needed) Alamy (manual upload, and way too many clicks and typing needed)

I'm not into videos (yet). But have you tried videohive.net? It's part of Evanto marketplaces.

So, what's the alternative to PayPal that I can use with any microstock website?

Congratulations!  The first time is always the best!

Congratulations. You had been lucky. Your argument has the same value as the guy who smokes since 20 years and says: "I never had cancer and I smoke" or the guy who drives drunk and says: "I always drive with three beers and never had an accident".
Nowadays we are in the lucky situation to have almost unlimited communication worldwide. Fraudulent and bad behaving companies are easy to identify. The only reason we continue to use them is lazynes and fear of change.
So what is a reliable alternative to Paypal that every micro/macro stock agency is accepting?

what pisses me off is we're seeing articles about Pinterest and copyright abuse but nothing at all about Google Images, Facebook, Flickr !
google images?!

I use picworkflow and it works well for me.
It does what it's supposed to do, distribute your upload to mutiple destinations. And it's quite fast too

Which low earner websites are worth submitting to? I use picworkflow, so the upload process is not a big problem. But processing upload, if there are too many clicks involved for categories and stuff, is too much time consuming. So I'm looking for something like GL (just upload) or at least CanStockPhoto, 123RF and Veer (upload and a couple of clicks)

>25? How can you submit to more than 25 agencies? Is it worth the time?!  I'm stuck at 10 microstock + alamy
117
« on: March 04, 2012, 12:03 »
Yeah, the reviewing process on 123rf takes like... forever! 4/5 weeks for my latest uploads
Only Veer is slower...

No, pure io mi affido ad un commercialista. Domani prover a chiedere anche a lui

E come fai per dichiarare gli incassi?
Ho aperto la partita iva da poco anche per altre cose e devo ancora capire un po' come funziona.
La nota che ti mandano loro appunto una "nota"... a quanto ne so io, se ho partita iva, quando ricevo una somma di denaro devo emettere una fattura che giustifichi questa entrata. Altrimenti se il fisco se ne accorge son caXXi.

Hi guys, this is a question to other Italian microstockers.
I have a "partita iva" so I have to create an invoice for each payment that I receive.
Where do you send your invoices then? Do you send a copy to the corresponding agency?
What do you do?
Thanks a lot! Stefano

We should celebrate! A raise for contributors is in order, I think we all agree on that 
Yep, that would be great!

Congratulations!

Same here... and I think that also the average review time is slower in the last few days. But I think that they will fix it soon, also it is not a real big issue to me

I don't know about the use of the IronMan figure in the preview image, but it's not (or at least it should not be) included in the layered PSD you're going to download if you buy it.
In the page is specified "photo not included in the download".
On evanto marketplaces I often see pics from Pixar and Fox movies used only in the preview. But I don't know if it's legal or not. I suppose it is... since they are not selling those images.

... craigslist.org is blacked out too.
theoatmeal.com archive.org (for 12 hours) twitpic.com/sopapipa has a "censored" logo minecraft.net icanhascheezburger.com and its network
