Cobalt your advice is amazing and spot on. I tried clicking on your stocksy link and it doesn't work for some reason (just the load bar) ... Thanks for your words of wisdom! Wishing everyone luck on those who are waiting.

Cheer up Yada, you made your spot with hard work! We all have an opinion, that is the great thing about this forum. Everyone has different ideas on what goes on "behind the curtain" but we are all in this race together. (I hope I don't come off as a cry baby from your earlier post, not sure if that was aimed at me?)

"Old images don't sell like they used to"

This is the exact opposite for me. ONLY the old images sell (and well)! No point on uploading new work anymore. New work never sees the light of day sadly ...

Are you in the .38 club yada?

Same thing here. I think I'm going to delete my BS account. I was getting $100 then $50 and now it is $30 per month.

So true! I'm waiting for the "anti-cap-earning" peeps to get angry at us for such talk ...

233
I'm pretty confident it will fail ...

Video is really good this month but I don't see any significant changes with my image downloads ...

I've read that Cavan owns copyright of your photos once they are sold. Is this true?

I gave up sadly BUT I stopped submitting to shutterstock and looking for a more "secure" agency for my images.

How are you getting on at Arcangel (if you don't mind me asking)?.

I'm at 574 images and no sales yet...

I have about 70 images and no sales at Arcangel. Maybe I'm not doing it right ...

I haven't tried trevillion but I hear they are extremely hard to get into.

I'm fine with waiting. They know what they are doing. I'm not submitting my application images to micro ...

It will drive you mad because there will always be another site to pop up. (wacka-mole). How many ads or blogs do you see with a watermark too?

With adobe premium you have to be invited. I don't think you can just apply...

Lagereek, why would I ever want to meet you after you threatened me online under several different names, and even got me banned from the Shutterstock forum. Please stay away from me as far as possible.
Why did he threaten you? I thought we are all on the same side?

241
I had no idea! I will miss those $50 payments here and there ...

wait till the "ghost-busters" arrive at your topic. They will destroy your first-hand experience of how an algorithm is capping your sales. "It is all in your head" they will say. Naive people, that don't know what you can do with technology.
We know about the same algorithm sales capping crap from SS, which is less noticeable than this from Adobe. At SS you have less noticeable but constant sales, which are slowly increasing yearly. We never had over 100 sales in a month (with almost 13000 video files), but we are near this number. Maybe in 2018 we will finally reach it.

Even Pond5 has some kinda capping algorithm. We even experienced 14days no sales (we have 13000 files?!) and then full-throttle another 14days of sales. The worst is when a whole month has almost no sales and then another month is very good.
I totally agree with you.

I submitted mine in October. I've been working so hard (and still am) but given how few they accept, I know my chances are slim. Keep us posted guys and good luck to everyone waiting.

I removed my videos from fotolia after some $3-4 sales. I earn much more for the same files elsewhere so it didn't make sense to "cannibalize" them. I LOVE pond5. I've had 2 sales at videoblocks with around 20 videos. I joined just recently ... Hope this helps with some insight.

I haven't used it as I stopped uploading a couple months ago but I have applied to Stocksy and LOVE their interface. Very easy breezy.

OH MY! I'm so embarrassed with my Popular now. They seriously put my first submitted content up on the first page from 10 years ago. Please no one look ...

I'm not that special so I assume everyone has this option ...

Canstock is always about the same earnings for me every month ...

So assume the PMS comment means you think women run the show over there?
