That part is hilarious:

However, Highsmith says she never abandoned her photo copyrights, and says she found out about Getty Images charging for her photos when she was sent a letter from Getty that demanded she pay for her own photo that was being displayed on her own website.

Works fine for me...

What an annoying topic.

1056
Nope.

1057
The fact is, that I found one of my images on calendar, and at the bottom it says, it was from shutterstock. Yet my stats show 0 dl-for that image. I even went day by day back to check, and didn't see any sales for that image...

Well looks like stuff like that is possible. Or maybe I'm going totally paranoid? Don't know what to think, its probably that I'm paranoid but who knows. Did you ever checked that with SS?

I didn't.

What if he even doesn't have a family?

1060
True dat. Like, some people are driving cars all their lives and yet, they still can't drive....

1061
Thats true. But what if there are customers who want to buy only one or two photos, or EL. It can be cheaper for them and more $ for you. I'm not saying this is going to happen. Probably it won't. But it sure can't happen if you don't have e-mail there.

1062
Not really. I don't think that offering the same images on different stock sites is equal to putting your e-mail on SS site.

Nice image, congrats on the sale, and thanks for sharing, which file was sold. It's always interesting to see, what kind of files sell for large amount of $.

Yeah, it says that you don't have the right kind of photos for FT customers.

Ok, nevermind. My mistake. I received money in , hence the difference. I remembered now that I said that I want my payment received in euros.

Ok, so I reached payout, and my cleared balance was 128$. So today I got the money via paypal but I only received 112$. Where is the rest? Is Alamy witholding tax or sth.?

Yeah, especially women like to read "between the lines" even when there isn't any lines in between.
That's because there usually are 'lines in between'.

Here you go. My point exactly.

1069
For me, I earned more on SS than FT only the first two months, when I started with this. After that, FT was my #1 earner, even with less sales.  Although, June and July are very poor for me on FT...

It's infinite contributor, but I don't know what infinite means....Thats why it's probably allowed...

We should create something like Contributors Union.....

1073
Ok, so I checked my sales, and for June, it says that almost 50% of my sales came from US buyers, which is not true, so there's something wrong with US sales reporting...

EDIT: OK, I went and calculated my US earnings for June and they are about 12%.

Adobe Stock / Re: Interesting popup on Fotolia site
« on: July 08, 2016, 03:15 »
Can you explain to us, how do you know, that your sales are coming from Adobe? Because as far as I know, there's no way of telling, only guessing by what comission one gets.

« on: July 07, 2016, 06:28 »
I agree, for most of you (for me FT performs better in $) SS is highest earner. I'm just saying, that you can't say from the polll if sales are rising or droping. Everybody has different experience.
For me, earnings are pretty stable, with May being my by far best month. Though I agree that the new files are hardly selling...
