I'm interested in giving this site a go but don't fully understand the Membership Agreement.

I've got that my images will be Royalty Free and non-exclusive, which is what I want because I submit to several sites but, despite reading it several times, I'm really not clear what the 'Call for Offers' bit actually means. 

Can someone please explain this to me? 

Clients can post an specific content "request" for a period of time. Contributors can apply own photos for a cal ( more than one image ). On the end, client buy it ( don't know if obliged to buy at least one of the images "suggested" )

Someone can explain me why I get a different commission , each time I sold a XXL TIFF:

October 2011: I got 2.5$ for one , and 4,35$ for other ( Same size .. 4500px x 3000px )

Today, I sold one and got 3,04$ ( 5226 x 3485 px )

....

Then i decide too look careful for other sizes, and it appears that almost files sold i got 30%. ( 2011 )

Note: I hit more than 150 files and 10 paid downloads before 2012. I opt-in PP Program.

Hey CoisaX,

The Price/Credits solely depends on the packages that our clients purchased.

For example:
1) Client bought a $15 package.
    Package Price: $15
    Credit Received: 15 Credits
    Price/Credits: $1
    After 50% sharing profit, Price/Credit: $0.50

2) Client bought a $100 package
    Package Price: $100
    Credit Received: 115 Credits
    Price/Credits: $0.87
    After 50% sharing profit, Price/Credit: $0.435

And, we share 50% of our revenue with our contributors. This include any discount given to our clients.

Hope this information helps.


Cheers,
Anglee

I understand it after read what luissantos84 said.

Thanks for the reply

edit by admin: fixed Anglee's info at her request.

I send an "automatic report" ( a new one ). I'm still getting "error updates" over Istock. Check it.

On "My uploads page" stats are ok, but i think that is something about PP sales.

I've a long list:

- Get 4x more images on portfolio ( this year I get 10x more ). I've planned 2 years for a "nice" portfolio with regular income. 2012 is crucial year for me.
- Work on a RM exclusive portfolio for Alamy.
- Own domain and site for "marketing" propose, and , if worth, for direct sales.
- Get 2nd dslr body ( 1st quarter ). Start having some limitations with 450D.

And probably will leave 2 agencies during first quarter.

Working well... last submitted pictures are online and getting sales.

I just switch to another host

http://www.canstockphoto.nl/ for instance.

Hope that helps lad, good luck

Yeah, it works. Thanks

Since yesterday I can't enter ( got reirected to "Www.canstockphotonull/myaccount.php" ). Some DNS issue?

- Tax form : Check
- Editorial Stuff: All my stuff submitted and approved - Check

2 Sales since 20/10/2011: Not so bad as expected ( for my port )

Now i'll only re-submit those accepted and with at least 1/2 sales on others agencies ( for LCV rejections ), with a note for reviewers.

A image being "just accepted" by some agency, doesn't means that its good for all others.

I also used Microbius's very helpful step by step (http://www.microstockgroup.com/general-stock-discussion/warning-lots-of-stolen-images-www-trollada-com/25/)  to report to Google adds, but 48 hours later, still no reaction from them....

I think they haven't Google Ads...

But they are at US Server , and they "usually" respect DMCA warning.

independent, photos only.  No ELs, p+ sales at decent sizes seem to have brought the average up - like I say though, my numbers are so small it doesn't mean much - the month before I had 5 times more PP than IS sales, and the money was split about 50/50

Same here. And after see November IS sales, I bet that i will have 80/20 for PP/IS.

 

I'm have +300 images RF ( will start sending some RM in 2012 ), 100% acceptance rate, almost one year there and have one sale... novell use... 0,41c



Anyway, only last month I start re-keywording all images and start getting more zooms , better CTR.. lets hope
