I think it's an excellent feature. There are still issues however with the alphabetization of keywords, and the terrible categories in Fotolia. I think all sites should eventually drop categories, or at least make it a simple general description like SS. Many people just pick random categories when uploading to FT.

Fotolia categories are not proper. I too sometimes pick random category
Also there are many issues in the new indexing system... I have however emailed them informing them about those issues.

I just submitted my few designs using this tool and its pretty impressive and time saver. Glad that FT changed its system of uploading.
Still I found few error when checking on Extended license option.

Zazzle is good.

You can sell in GraphicRiver.net they also offer business card templates selling.

Or else give them to me "free" and I will showcase on my website
I don't sell any business card templates .... rather I provide them for free on my site

Hi
Can anyone confirm whether ClipartOf is closed to new contributors?  Permanently?
Thanks.

I guess so.. I have tried many times but they are not accepting new contributors (btw exceptions are always there)

I managed to get into shutterstock today after passing the initial test. I want to upload the rest of my portfolio but i'm scared that if i get too many rejections they'll kick me out.

Does this sort of thing happen?

Is there any penalty for getting a lot of image rejections?

They will give you warning regarding it.
Also if you are resubmitting the same (or same type) images again and again then they'll surely give you warning for it. And I guess maximum of 5 warnings given before the account suspension unless and until you do something really against the rule.

Its better to study and see the quality of work they require now.

How do  I participate in the IPO? I'm located in Europe.

I could spare a few thousand dollars for some SS Stocks...

Ya even I would like to participate in the IPO... but how...?
I discussed today from one of my share broker and he told that I cannot invest in the ipo since I am living on different country.

I recently got an email from paypal saying:

hi,
i just created this image. and its rejected in SS and iS.
any thought? is it really forbiden doing such image?

what was the reason provided for rejection?

catch the entire forum topic here:
http://submit.shutterstock.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=122225

W8-BEN Tax Form is nothing but a simple tax form (a kind of agreement between you and the company) for which a small percentage of the sale royalty will be cut for any sale made in US. Every country have different percentage of agreements with sales in U.S..

Yes... you need to submit it in many websites which are located in U.S. or comes under U.S. Tax Withholding.

You can get a detailed explanation here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRS_tax_forms#W-8_Series

Even I have got a personal blog dedicated to designers and developers. You can check it here www.DezineGuide.com
I do share lot of freebies and inspiration and many many things in the blog....

Why do I do it?? Even I dont know    
Its fun... and I love doing it

They could only do that successfully if they owned all the microstock sites.  That might seem like a good idea for us but with no competition, they could set commissions much lower than they are now.

or if they offer exclusivity..... with all contributors migrating to there site and not uploading to any-other websites

Quote from: heywoody on April 01, 2012, 01:49
There are plenty of other places to buy images...

same happened with me too.. no email + the approved images not showing in portfolio... not sure whats going on with them...

two times a day and at the time of upload too

Its not the worst month. But I will agree for drop in sales....
