ss blows up any image under 15mp by 100%, so your 15mp image will offered at 30mp a 20mp image will just be a 20mp image

so if you submit a 10mp image, it will be available at 20mp.

not sure what software they use but doubling the resolution of a file which is sharp at 100% will be very soft at 200% ]

europe will have their house in order come may when their new privacy laws come into effect. europeans will have a lot more protection and they will have a say on what happens with their personal data. zuckerberg has already announced that they will move all non european users from the t&cs at their hq in ireland to their office in the us. and so does linkedin and other platforms. lol. such hypocrite zuckerberg,. heres a chance to redeem yourself for your cockup with cambridge analytics and then you actually do the oposite of what you promised at the Senate Judiciary and Commerce Committee hearing . he wont be sole boss for long. too much power, and now he crossed a line

what is your business plan; how will you get buyers to change their behavior and buy from you? what is your marketing budget and how are you planning on marketing your business? what is your growth expectation for the next 3 years? what is your USP?

Sure, the company is yet to turn an annual profit. In the most recent financial year, it lost $3 million, and it generated just $24 million in revenue.

All these private valuations are fake ... It's all on paper, it's all a myth", Bill Gurley, a widely respected US venture capitalist, and an early backer of Facebook and Uber, famously said in 2015.

if the app is not in the google play store then i presume it has been pulled (or deleted) if i cannot downlaod it from the app store but have to get it somewhere else, i will not install it. so i am 99% sure  either they discontinued the app and pulled it or google removed it from the store for good reasons.

On a legal document, "if I'm reading it right" should not be a question.
legal documents always have some sort of ambiguousness to them otherwise there would be no neverending lawsuits and lawyers couldnt line their pockets

it has gone very quiet around his business, he says hes never been wrong about business decisions and that he is 3 years ahead of the curve, yet no site selling content shot from a mobile has taken off., i was just wondering how this went as he was adamant this was the next gold mine and we were all wrong

i wanted to check out the app for android but its not available. the site is also not updated to remove the broken link. so i would guess the business is no longer a point of focus.

if they need funding they can go to specific sites, like kickstarter etc.

how is this going? the link to the app on google play is dead, is this now only for iphone? seems a million chucked into an endless pit. doesnt look a like a million dollar website either,

15. Would you be interested in a voluntary option to contribute a small portion of your Pond5 revenue to a fund that supports the next generation of young up-and-coming filmmakers? (your choice of % with a matching donation of up to 10% from Pond5)

asking to donate money of my earnings to help others create (competing) films. leaves a weird taste in my mouth. let them work for it, like we all did

has to be the weirdest request i have had from an agency. they really have no shame do they.?

possibly that should have been rejected as well. you can report the images to ss if you think they violate copyright, still wont allow you to get your images approved

they promised bucket loads 3 years ago, the contrib page is still the same crap it was 3 yrs ago, they' perform well, but theyre either leading us on or severe procrastinators, either way, they do nothing to improve the contrib page..

a trend is to stretch the vertical footage in a second layer and blur it, to create a full frame image, so i guess vertical footage is acceptable, but i wouldnt use it and have black borders on the side,.
