If fact, contributor is an idiot in average... We saw results about "fair trade agency"...

Maybe that was this!
Retroactive Royalty Payout from iStockphoto
Hi there,
On April 4, a bug occurred where your royalty rate dropped to the default level. We have run a script to identify downloads that should have been paid at the proper rate. Your account has now been credited with the outstanding amounts.
If you have any further questions please contact Contributor Relations.
Best Regards,
iStockphoto

I am talking about collecting money for a new agency not for promoting an old one...

What we should do now!?
Suggestions please!
So this is the Big Plan?
With who? My conclusion is that there is no "moving force" among contributor population,many of us think completely different... This clearly shows that all agencies have "clean hands" to do everything what they want! "Agencies are everything, contributor is nothing!" Funny is that contributor confirms this conclusion every day! I can open another poll to just separate all contributors who think similar, so they start promote true "fair trade"... But how many of contributors will participate in action, 50 or 80? Maybe I will these days.. Also, old thought is coming on my mind! New Agency, but contributors are owners! We should start to collect money!

I usually just choose an existing card that is the same style, click customize button, change image, then click post for sale; then change title and description, set the category then done.
That way I don't have to retype all those text fields every time.
Thanks Irban! I was thinking that will change the existing card, but not to make another...

I've been asked on Zazzle froum, why there are no more predefined text lines (company name, address, email etc.) on business cards, in design (or profilecard)...
They deleted my topic about... Why? Who knows...
So does anybody know how to save an empty template with all predefined text for using after? Just to add a picture and sort all together for every new card for sale...
Now it spends to much time when we have to write all text lines for each card separately...

Maybe you think that we haven't any result with this poll! We have!
Now we know better who we are...

We have the winner! Shutterstock!

Royalty per download (RPD) is not quite good measure! For more money on SS the reason could be that they have excellent selling-price management which attract customers more than others agencies, where customers will spend more than usual! That is certainly the truth in case of Shutterstock!
So crucial thing have to be how much from that they are ready to give to their contributors and nothing else, no RPD or RPI etc.
Just royalty rate!
Everyone who want to change the opinion in this poll, can remove his voting with click on "REMOVE VOTE" button under the poll, and can do it again!

So this poll to me is a joke.
It is not a joke, is a tragedy! Contributors are mainly guilty for their destiny!

Why consider only %?
What is better a site that gives you 90% and sell 1 photo a year or a site that gives you 20% and sells 50 photos a day?
No, what is better is a site that sells 50 photos a day and pays 90%. This isn't about how much we earn at a site it is about who pays the most per download and therefore who we shoud be promoting and sending the buyers to. If we are making the most money at a low paying site it means that a lot of the buyers are there instead of at a place that gives us better commission. We shouldn't promote sites just because they have a lot of buyers we should promote sites that pay us well per dl.
Totally agree! Imagine what would be if for example Istock has 99% of whole image market... Then IS can pay only 5% (even less) to their contributors and still be the most paying stock agency... Other 1% of market and all other agencies can not make enough big amount every month, even with 90% royalty rate for their contributors... This poll clearly shows lack of knowledge of contributors,if anything else... They can feed the beast whole the time and think "we are not guilty for low commision rate"...

"Marketing plan" is what I intend to talk about several days before poll's end!
My intention is also to ask the winning agency to prepare as much as they can, any kind of promotional materials...
I know that this can not be something big especially for the first time, but this can be "a big message", that we are, in fact, partners who work together!
This is the least what we can do!
One month of our promotion, totally free, even 100 of contributors is not so small number if we start together in same time...
This is like "spring ecology cleaning action" in the nature of a small town ... You can not clean the world in 7 days of action, but you can send a message ...
Next time may be "eco cleaning action" in two cities!
You can not change the world! But small virus can! Act as a virus!

I think that we get much clearer picture about contributors with this poll, than ever before!
I can open another poll "Do you want to remove your vote for Shutterstock?"
So if that number will exceed the difference between SS and GL we will have another winner...
Or "Do you agree that promotional agency should be an agency with contributor's 50%+ royalty rate?"...
Shutterstock has unclear royalty rate and certanly less than 50%...
Etc.

I'm confused. The heading at the top of the poll says:
POLL: Please vote which "FAIR TRADE AGENCY" will be the first in our "Joint promotion and marketing campaign"!
istock is considered a fair trade agency? 
Maybe is not for you, but it can be for someone? Many contributors have private agreement with them! As in politics, not all parties are equally evaluated for everybody... Also it's not right that I as the creator of this poll, make decision which agency will be here and which not...

Let everything be transparent!
We can make referendum question only for all those who wish to participate in campaign
So when campaign starts, everyone who will be in should put links as a proof of promotion....
I like the idea of the campaign but just not for an agency with an rpd of less than a dollar.
Can someone make easy understandable referendum question with explanation why (YES/NO) for last two days of this poll!? My English is not so good (this pool is a proof  ) It should be 50%+ agency, SS is OK but their percentage is unclear... Just to explain to "rashly people" in this voting why we want to change the winning agency in case if SS holds 1st place... Or poll for people who change their opinion and want to remove a vote for SS from this poll! Then SS can fall on second place!

We don't have to promote SS. I think it was the wrong decision to have the top 4 sites in the poll. They already take enough money from us to promote themselves and us doing their job would be madness.
So I'll stick with my referral links to GL and P5. Might add one for YM, as they're doing a great job recently.
Frankly, I completely agree with you Sharpshot! Limit of the fair trade is 50:50 in all agency jobs... But what others will tell if we change campaign to GL? What I can do at this moment, maybe poll's question is partly wrong? Or we can open a referendum question at the end of this poll...??

It seems that we will have to promote SS as a first agency in our campaign...
That also could be good to show other "biggies" that we like someone who is good to us..
So, what you mean? How long period should be for the first campaign? Week, month or...?
After first campaign we can start the second! Second agency on poll list...

Many exclusives on some sites don't like actions like this... So it also could be a sign of big potential...
Cthoman, I'm sorry if your agencies are not on the Poll's list... I put all rated agencies from MSG (column right), which mean that contributors mostly work with them...
