Stocksy / Re: Call to Artists 2015

I'm not sure.  Nick's very quick on support, so you could open a ticket.  Buyers can set up profiles, and I believe they become "members", but I don't know about the payment thing.

I'll add Stocksy to the list.

And well you should ;) .  Stocksy pays %50 royalties and %75 on ELs.  As well, in the future, once requirements are met, we should be paying patronage awards to all contributors from the profits.  Also, promotional fees come from the agency budget, which is really our budget, as contributors are stockholders of the co-op.

Legally, how can they call "one month" a subscription?

The title was Fotolia / Adobe Stock murdering the market, or something like that.

Sorry, how is the agency eating the cost of the promotion "murdering"?

I'm pricing my latest 4K clips at $199.  We'll see how that goes.

Somebody knows if there are any plans in the recent future to accept editorial images ?

Afaik, there are no plans to do editorial .

I only have a choice of 1 credit for XS.  How do you get it to be more?

I think you need to have exclusive file. Otherwise you can only change the price for EL.

Ok, that's what I thought.

Same here! I'm diamond as well but yesterday had 1 sale at iStock. Sad

Egads.   I'd be living in a van down by the river if I was still there and doing 1 sale a day.  Just looking back at a random month, October of 2010, I had 12,623 downloads.

I got some friends on the books at Stocksy and Offset, been there since the very start and with large portfolios. They always seem to complain about a complete lack of sales?
Personally I don't know?  haven't really looked at these agencies or their content.

anybody here that have sales with them?

Nice compositing, but very, very repetitive.  I switched pages and thought I didn't because it looked the same.  Person in front of glowing dollar sign door, businessman in steps, hand holding digital device with glory icons, etc.  Same thing repeated over and over.  Definite style though.

I only have my videos at SS and Pond.  Nothing else has been presented as an acceptable option.

Here's a graph of my September so far.  I had a really excellent day yesterday, a $70 royalty.  So don't let throw you off.

You can't possibly police a one time use license though, unlike Canva.

"i know that sometimes there are attacks by hackers that steal information of people in the internet , maybe you just forgot those things?"

That's irrelevant.  To do business, the companies you do business with need your information.

Well, good luck.

Adobe Stock / Re: Sales nearly stopped at Fotolia
« on: September 24, 2015, 14:42 »
This really, I think, just emphasizes what most of us know. It's not ALL the website; a lot of it has to do with the types of images in your portfolio, and the types of people that use that site. My top selling image for the 4 years that I've been in Microstock has over 400 downloads in SS, but only 17 with FT. On the other hand, one of my most downloaded images on FT (117) has no sales on SS.
(I have only about 375 images online).

My top image on IS, licensed over 10K times, I don't think has sold more than a dozen on all the sites it's on, since I've been uploading to them.  Probably because you can lift it from a million sites online.

" brands do not always need to ask for permission to use a photo on their websites because users can give implied consent by tagging a company in their posts."

Uh, that's a big negatory.

(SS and IS wants passport , and i think it isnt a good idea to give it)

Why?  What do you know that 50,000 other contributors don't know?

The FZ1000 did a great job on tracking focus.  I didn't miss anything.  And I used a $28 ND filter from BHPhoto, shooting outdoors.  It did have a variable aperture across the zoom range, but it wasn't a huge deal.  I would have liked a tighter DOF in some places.
