Alamy.com / Portfolio link?
« on: December 30, 2018, 02:26 »
Am I right in thinking that there is no way to give a link to my portfolio on Alamy to a potential buyer?
I can see no way to do this....
:(

Alamy.com / Re: Alamy reducing commission from 50% to 40%
« on: December 19, 2018, 07:12 »
OK. 50% or 60% all round would have been great. BUT....
given most of us send mostly the same stuff to all agencies, it is us that have meant that agencies do largely end up selling the same stuff and that they cannot differentiate themselves by exclusive images which can't be found elsewhere. Hence price and commission competition.
What did we expect?
I hope that Alamy will take the initiative and try to get more exclusive stuff - maybe even get back to 60% for it, and try to gain market share as a result.
If all sites continue to sell the same stuff then commodity prices will be paid by customer to the agency - and by the agency to us.

Nice list, it would also be good to see the traffic for each website, to get a small idea of how well they perform.
Don't care about traffic, sales are what matter. See list to the right of this site for some idea of many.

Nice list but I wonder how many sell......
40% of nothing is still nothing....

Adobe Stock / Re: How to contact Adobe as a contributor.
« on: December 10, 2018, 15:25 »
Got the email. Very odd use of language, tenses so....
didn't follow link but went to site.
Email said my tax forms run out next week, but the site says expiration date N/A.
Think I have filled a new one in anyway and saved the thing...awaiting verification.....

UPDATE - verification arrived so ok.

Newbie Discussion / Re: Question about 500px
« on: December 10, 2018, 02:45 »
Slow? Dead. Licensed doesn't necessarily mean licensed, just that Getty or China MAY choose to put them on their site. And then, of course, they MAY or MAY NOT sell.
Last sale a month back 74cents.
As for leave on site rejected images? Why? They can be very easily stolen. Happened to me....

So...anybody selling anything with 500px or is is now officially Flickr II?

I think that tells you. Very few others worth the candle. :(

Adobe Stock / Re: Privacy and permissions
« on: November 28, 2018, 02:50 »
Yes, obj owl that is the HUGE list! NO prior warning/explanatio via email. Yes, could be the EU data protection thing... :(
I opt out but the list...keeps returning.
Seems completely OTT and while an ad blocker will catch some/most I still don't really all these guys getting my data. Will continue to opt out.

« on: November 27, 2018, 05:50 »
Recently, when I log in to FT/AS I am asked to give consent for them to share info with a huge, long list of advertising type 'partners'.

It seems I can choose to opt out - but then the same page appears again.

So I guess no opt out....they can share any info they have with.....just about everybody?

Is that so?

General Stock Discussion / Re: November Sales
« on: November 23, 2018, 07:18 »
Same here mate! fallen through the floor!!  with the exception of Fotolia!...its the same everywhere right across the board almost!
Everywhere else is fairly average for me. I think Adobe may well be giving SS some serious competition at last.

I sincerely hope so! its about time somebody else makes a mark and impose some serious competition.

It depends. If they end up competing on price then we are lost.

Is it an annual thing that there is always a negative 'royalty free and stills' in their September?

« on: November 10, 2018, 02:47 »
I went to my fotolia dashboard this morning, I was already logged in. I didnt get a redirect to Adobe, everything worked as always.
I did. :( 
So has all access to Fotolia stats gone already?

No, stats at Fotolia will remain available until November 5, 2019.

-Mat
But how do I get there please? Everything redirects to Adobe....

PS please can you fix it that when you have chosen a geographical area ie language, the system holds this for future logins? Only a minor irritation, but still a pain....

But is it true that Credit sales will be a thing of the past? Just subs in future?

'......your royalty rate will still be 35% of the sale price in that jurisdiction'
yep, they'll be selling cheaper then.
Exciting news.....
Apparently not! :)

I hope there's going to be some serious development of the Adobe stock site. At the moment I think the Fotolia site is far superior to the very simplistic Adobe site. Fotolia has a lot of features I like a lot, whereas Adobe stock is boring to use and has almost no useful features.

We are working hard to continue developing the Adobe Stock Contributor Portal. I expect to continue to see many new and exciting features in the months to come.

Other than view statistics and the weekly position, what specific feature are you referencing that is available at Fotolia and not Adobe Stock?

-Mat
How I fear those words 'new and exciting'....!

Hmm...sorry if this is a tad off topic, but when I do the above, it shows me a 30 or so dollars 2 weeks ago labelled 'Other income' - no photo sale next to it.
Don't suppose you have any idea what this means do you?
