Good!! I have finally an answer from photodune: Hey Smithore, Thanks for your email. Please take the PhotoDune quiz again: http://photodune.net/upload/take_quizRegards, Thinesh P I already done your stupid test, i'm selling microstock for 5 years now. I've sent you 10 pictures in a zip, wait 5 days and now you send me this message!!!!!?  ? You take contributors for suckers? Really ?? I think these guys are simply the worsts i have never seen in microstock market, if you were near my place, i will send you my stupid president Sarkozy for the most boring diner of your life. So bye bye photodune, and congrats for your inability to communicate.

I never give my files for free on dreamstime, why did you give your file, you have the option for deleting them if they don't sell for 4 years!! Never give your photos!!!

You have many chances Phillip, i'm waiting my inquiry answer since almost 72 hours, never lost so many time for uploading to a site, why they don't answer to my ticket? I'm staying cool for some hours, after i give up.

No, i've sent a zip file.
I've sent also a ticket to the team, waiting for answer. I gave you a link to my SS portfolio, maybe it's easier to have a look of my work than sending 10 pictures and lost many time.

Hi Collis,
I want to try photodune for some months just to see if it's worth the effort.
i've uploaded also 10 images for the first review and they also vanished.
I have one week to send you my portfolio, after this time,i will not be in my country for 4 months.

Pirated music concern only famous music artist, if you're not famous, you can not be pirated. Music artists who are not pirated are all depressing because they don't exist in the industry. The others are real musicians: they playing music on stage. I don't see any comparison with microstock and photos.

Ok, but as the commission is a misery, what did you think about this bundle payment?? Is it planning to be a regular one, or just one time for eternity ,and after you have to be happy with the extended license sell at 3$?
In one word : is it a carrot for donkey or a real performing selling program?
Can you participate to the bundle if you check off extended license selling??
For me canstock sell two times more than 123RF.
You have to compare photodune to the best sellers sites, not with sites like 123, canstock or other very few to middle earners.

Ok, so , what???
It means if you upload to photodune you have "chance" to earn sometimes 600 or 800$ commission??
Only if one or your picture is selected for a bundle??? That's it???
Is it like hasard game or is it regular ?
236
« on: October 29, 2011, 08:13 »
I think my anger at the commission will be surpassed by my envy at those bundle earnings. I'll probably start uploading soon. What do you talking about?? Which bundle???

"Hi everybody,
Just to say PhotoDune for me now is one of the most important agency, because I sell there since September and for this two months have sales as Dreamstime, Fotolia or 123RF have
For example this month at Dreamstime I have 18 sales (307 images portfolio) but in Photodune 27 sales (420 images portfolio)
May be I have specific images which sells good in Photodune, because in BigStock I have just 3 sales (613 images portfolio)
Go ahead PhotoDune You are the new superstar in this business!"
Lol, a new member suddenly appears from nowhere to explain photodune is worth the efforts to upload!!!! Ah Ah Ah!!!
I'm thinking exactly like sharpshot and some others contributors: be fair in your commission and you'll have something to sell!!
Don't forget we're uploading everyday new pictures to fair agencies!!!
I think it's really a shame to see you can spend back half of the buyer money and don't give more to the contributors, wrong move again. Between easy fast money and real quality and competition in the microstock world, you choose the small one. You are proving by this gesture you like much more sellers than contributors who work by your side. That's the way leeches are growing in the rainforest.

Like Sharpshot, I'm waiting better commission...
For now I've stopped to upload to Istock, Fotolia, bigstock, and i won't encourage sites who cut commissions anymore.

Your new deal is not fair, it will kill the microstock industry, under 28$ for El, no way. The commission is also too low.
You are a very polite guy, that's not enough, we want to see real facts.

This time, fotolia really touch the deep bottom, in term of human consideration.

243
« on: September 29, 2011, 18:24 »

Ah AH Ah!!!
Very funny!!! Shutterstock was the only agency to start with subscriptions, and now, when all the other agencies have subscription and are cutting contributors earnings, SS start a single sale with 30% commission!!! I can only congrats them, FT and IS are really tricked !
245

Your reputation is on the line here, you will get a lot of respect if you make changes, I think we're all getting tired of sites that make bad decisions and don't have the flexibility to change them.
Exactly. A stock photo agency need not look beyond Fotolia for an example of a company which lost a significant amount of contributors after attempting to low ball them. Once considered the heir apparent to iStock, they are now teetering on mid tier status. And once they reach mid tier, they will lose even more contributors who realize their revenue no longer justifies the ridiculous commission structure.
The bottom line for Veer to realize is that contributors really don't need them. They are a borderline low tier / mid tier earner with a history of painfully slow reviews, and previously failed agencies (Snapvillage). Nobody is going to accept a terrible deal from a company which earns them between 1% and 6% of their monthly sales. Either you treat contributors with respect, or you can expect to disappear from relevance rather quickly.

Ok, i've checked my email and found the subscription advertising, received the 24 September. I'm log in many times, look all the pages but see not advert on the site, sorry, i'm talking about pop up warning direct to contributors, of course, not of commercial advert on the site for buyers!!!
Anyway I'm waiting the sub out confirmation.
248
« on: September 27, 2011, 07:20 »
I remain out too, but nobody received opt out email confirmation!!!!? Why such a complicated way of opting out by email??? Why don't you include an option on the veer site??? That's not fair!!! I never received the email information about the subscription plan and when I'm login on Veer I don't see any advert about the subscription plan!!! So, do you planing to trick people by hiding the information and avoid them to opt out easily ans clearly ? Then after the 21st october, the people who don't get the information will be f....and forced to sell subscription? Do you think it's a good way to work together, you the seller and us the photographers?? SS don't move for now, they are actually the only agency really growing in sales and all the others agencies want to kill it by lowering prices again and again, lowering prices is it the only way to fight in business? No clever alternatives??? Are you sure? We have to warn all agencies: lowering prices is the only way to stop contributors making good pictures quality and to loose work motivation!! How can we pay models with such low earning?Do you think we gonna work and pay you next year? We see all agencies becoming Leechers and new little worms like photodune want to suck the blood too. So, for now, thank you to Veer team to write on this precious forum, but please be fair !!! We also all waiting for opt out confirmation!!!!! And this opt out must be clearly noticed on each contributor account!!!! thanks

Pond5 is the best video site, if they can sell pictures the same way as footages, it could be a good alternative from all other microstock sites. Anyway i don't understand why they sell 123Rf pictures, that so different from their price politic !!!!

« on: September 26, 2011, 05:02 »
Waow, never received the email about subscription information.
I've just opted out now.
Do you received any opt out confirmation in return??
