4] Change description of your profile to smth: "Since June 2020, after huge royalties drop for contributors I have stopped uploading my stuff to SS. For new/better stuff check me on [insert your fav site].
This is violates the TOS and may cause ban. So I would not recommend it. Especially, with links.
I've placed only the name of the site, no links. You care about TOS? You know... F#CK it! I will understand their move if they fully automate submission process. At least. But all they do is cut the royalties and invent ranking reset.

As you can see: low and unfrequent sales is a common thing now.

Last update: 20.06.16PLEASE REPOST. PLEASE REPOST.BOYCOTT JUN 15 -21SECOND PHASE: JUN 22-28https://www.microstockgroup.com/shutterstock-com/shutterstock-blackout-2nd-phase-22-28/THIRD PHASE: JUN 29-JUL8https://www.microstockgroup.com/shutterstock-com/shutterstock-blackout-3rd-phase-jun-29-jul-8/FOURTH PHASE: JUL 8-31https://www.microstockgroup.com/shutterstock-com/shutterstock-blackout-4th-phase-jul-8-jul-31/Russian speaking contributors are planning to disable their portfolios during 15-21 Jun period [and maybe even month period, tbd]. SO JOIN THE EFFORT, IF YOU DARE. STOP BEING SILENT SLAVES!
1] Stop uploading
2] Disable Image/Video sales during 15-21 Jun period or more, tbd -> Go to Account Settings, disable sales [see pic below]
3] Change your image avatar at stock site and their forum
4] Change description of your profile to smth: "Since June 2020, after huge royalties drop for contributors I have disabled my portfolio & will not continue until roayties will be reconsidered"
5] Remove all shutterstock related links from your sites, blogs, whatever
6] Spread info at social media
7] Downvote all their products, videos, applications on any marketplace
8] If you have contact with buyers, deliver this info to them, convince them to switch the stock
9] Upvote my post
10] Do i mention don't upload & deactivate your portfolio?
To prevent denial of service, when opting out on 15th, i recommend not to do this simultaneously to smooth things out. Eg. Choose 12, 13, 14 or smth
LAST RESORT:
1] Put a direct link to your portfolio on rival microstock site [this action violates TOS]
2] Completely delete all images & profile

I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused to you. We hear your concern with the new earnings structure changes. The decision to make these changes was not made lightly and was done with much consideration for all of our contributors. Shutterstock aims to fairly compensate our contributors for the time and talent invested in the production of their work. [Looks like trolling]Given the market has changed significantly since Shutterstock was founded in 2003, we have made changes to better reflect the current market. SO IT'S LIKE:"With all disrespect to all of you, f#ck you! We don't care about you, your family and you will continue to contribute [i estimate over 60% of continuators], you miserable slave.

Topic pretty irrelevant now, especially considering latest royalties drop.
Any topic is irrelevant.

It's a matter of time until AS will do the same as IS and SS! 
I don't have social media mambo-jambo, but you people should flood their facebook and tweeter with this wonderful picture that represents their chief in action.

Finally! Way to go! Yeah!!!!
They are suggesting to shot on iphone instead of dslr's and mirrorless.
Funny thing sh#ty iphone is way tooo luxury for contributors with such earnings.

freepik is temporary success, for sure.
They are just biting the hand that feeds them.

Plain photos are already pretty dead genre, even superb ones.
Such sites as freepik just accelerate royalties degradation.
147
« on: May 12, 2020, 16:28 »
That's just madness
I suspect that they will lower royalties in a while. Almost sure.

If you close your account, they can sell your photos, the photos will remain in this agency for one year... for a year without pay you any download!
Sounds like vomit rules.

I was a premium uploader on freepik. There is currently a 7-8 cent commission to sell a picture. It is not worth it. When I started there the commission was 13 cents. It’s getting worse year after year, our work is worth more than that. 
Looking at pool results, somebody like them!
