I copy Title to Description, slightly changing the text. Or Description to Title - I don't track this, because some stocks switching it.
One field usually contains more information.

Instead of writing inane blog posts, how about asking contributors what useful features or stats they could add to the app? Something contributors could actually use... I have a strong feeling that SS is trying to hide stats from us. All the changes they made for a last few years is made for hiding stats. And only after it - to play with UI.

There is rarely enough money to reach the unsecured creditors. If there were, then the company probably would not have filed bankruptcy...
Some of us requested payout months ago and did not received any answer. As far as I know. So, Val is clearly collected some money before closing. Shame.

Val is silent, of course

LOL. No love for the Illustrators.
Not true! We definitely love illustrators! I understand you are referring to Adobe Illustrator specifically but it's important to note your vector uploads and earnings from vectors do count towards the CCP giveaway.

He wanted to say that as a (vector) illustrators, we don't need Ps+Lr subscription and can't get full CC, because it requires 300 video uploads.

You just said why, because nobody has the time to go there each day and deactivate them in batches of 5.
Even if you deactivate them, that is no guaranty they don't sell them anyway.
Well, there's some trick in response. For example, StockSubmitter have a button "Deactivate photos on DP". It's free and it will do it for you. Also, even if you remove the port, there's still no guarantees. Especially, for so-called partners. I'd recommend deactivate first and close the account later.

By the way, guys, where do you see this Subscription Plan? I don't have it on Subscribe page.

Just a little reminder:
The last funny story, when they introduced a Flexible Plan (in fact, 1 image for $1, on demand) a lot of people left Depositphotos or deactivated the images. And you know what? They started to block deactivation! You could kick down 5 works, then get error message and delay before you could deactivate the next 5. And all the time they replied that everything is fine and they did not block anything. Then they started to whine to every contributor's e-mail, that Flexible Plan is a temporary solution and they will turn it off soon. Guess what? Plan is still there, for almost two years. And they advertise it every month.
I don't know, why some people are still there, really.

Cutting assortment for below-low-seller is funny. Do they have buyers ready to pay for better, but less content? it is usual in retail to top up the price if you rise the quality. Do they have buyers ready for this? Do they have any buyers, actually? So invest in attracting them first!

Are you blind? how do you think "dpc was worst.." Probably you were opted out and don't know how it works. My downloads 2000+ per month before the april now 1300 DL per month and my loss 300usd+ ,Yes adobe killed Dpc and Us
Are you blind? DPC is closed for contributions and new customers for over a year! Why do you count your overall income? DPC had very special prices, so you can easily count it's share. I bet, it's much lower than 30% you talking about.

Maybe you should have informed yourself instead of jumping on the "oh, I might make $100 a year" slogan? Ingimage has had those partner resellers for many years, anyone can get them, you can start your own agency tomorrow with their images.
And there are reasons why they only have 4 million images compared to the 80 million at Shutterstock.
So maybe it's not their offer you should be questioning but your lack of informing yourself before making a decision?
Ok, I was wrong. And misinformed. Problem is not in regular offering, but in so called 99CLUB. "Perfect for Dollar Photo Club Expired Customers" they said. Limited offer they said. Did not said, where is the limit. https://shop.stockphotosecrets.com/99club.html$99 for 200 images per year. License is forever. They selling on demand images for $0,5. And I did not know about 99club, when I signed. Actually, I did not even signed anything. Just mailed back, that I agree, asked a few questions and waiting for a confirmation. They did not answered. Did not even offered me to read any TOS or agreement. Too tricky and too much DollarPhotoClub for me.

Technically their controlled vocabulary and the keyword accuracy is far superior to the others. I don't know, what do you call accurate. Here's the examples of rejected keywords from last upload: Branding - they know only agricultural branding, that's why they reject it in any business-oriented context. It's 383 pages of "business branding" vs 10 pages of "agriculture branding" and no agricultural theme on first page by keyword "branding". Why? Blue - they rejected this keyword for one isolated big blue object Vector - rejected for vector files Waving (Oscillation) - constantly rejected for sound wave, which is an oscillation, actually. I have no idea, how do they keep their vocabulary working. Really.

Well, I work with SignElements for a few years and it is good. Better than other well-known low-earners for me. They offered to join their mother-agency, Ingimage. Why not? Now I know, why. As for other "third-world" - I don't know, sometimes they worth trying. If they can make $100 in a year, why reject any money?  They are extremely easy to upload usually.

Nope. The trick is "250 per week". Shutterstock sells subscription for $199/month and it's 750 images. $0,26 per unit. See the difference? 0,26 vs 0,07.

I thinks, lots of us received an invitation to Ingimage and partners in March. Looks like it was a campain to make a better start for StockPhotoSecrets. But look at their prices!
They offer 250 Dls per week, subscription for 12 months, for $999. It's about 52 weeks in the year, so they selling 13000 images for $999. It's $0,07 per image and this is only SPS price! How much can author get? $0,01? What is it? A new DollarPhotoClub rising? The cheaper, the angrier?

How . closing of DPC could affect Fotolia sales?
1. It was announced in first videocast, when Adobe bought FT
2. Uploading and file transfers was disabled for how long? A half of the year?
3. Registration of new customers was blocked almost immediately after the deal.
It was already dead! A long time ago!

In March it took three weeks, I checked. Next letter is still on hold.

Tell me just one thing. Isn't it a Fotolia reviewer's job to select what fits and what do not? Contributors PROVIDE content. That's what they do. Reviewers SELECT what fits Fotolia needs. I hope they get exact instructions regularily. At least, contributors do not receive any instructions, or even clear explaination of rejects. I literally have no idea, if I upload similars or just a series. It's not my job to decide. My job is to upload and keep the quality high.
I heard about at least two more bans with this reason. They are crazy, we must explain it to them somehow.

Increase of price: 34% of $13 = $4.4 for us, $8.6 for them
They said 5% rise of price. So, its not $13, but $10,5. Or I don't get something?

I just sent a notification to Depositphotos:
I am not agree with your cut of payments for contributors. So I decided to quit upload. At least till new year.
