UPDATE...
Although the thief was reported to Shutterstock, After I mention the THIEF's portfolio, he/she somehow open another account
www.shutterstock.com/g/Leinson with the same portfolio.
What's going on Shutterstock ???


The is illegal based on the terms of SS. You cannot have two accounts.  That should be reported, too.

I encourage anyone who sees their images or knows who might be the copyright holder of those images to file a DMCA.  The arrogance of Achielles at DREAMSTIME and their support team is astonishing. Acheilles of all people (being a photographer himself) should not stand for this.

I am going to start a new DT thread so that DT is exposed for the copyright thief supporters they are.

Double account reported as well but still no action by SS :(

This THIEF, I guess, collect images and upload after minimal retouches like flipping and removing some parts (like mine) to build his/her portfolio.
Check your images...

Symbiostock - General / Payment options aside from Paypal
« on: May 08, 2017, 09:04 »
Since PayPal not active in my country, what other payment options can be used in Symbiostock site?

32
There's a third party app called todayis20 which has much better stats than ESP, but quite possibly not in as much detail as you'd like.
Thanks!.. Downloaded and tried, better than nothing... I wish Getty could have handle such issues seriously.

33
I want to see stats of how my images sell. Is there any way for it?
Or am I asking too much?

Good news from Jon Oringer. I hope it won't take long.

How exorbitant is it? Surely it's not that much more than it would be through your bank?
From SKRILL website "For transactions involving currency conversion Skrill adds a fee of 3.99% to our wholesale exchange rates.
The exchange rates vary and will be applied immediately without notice to you."
So it is 4% plus withdrawal fees. I hope it is exorbitant enough to call it as robbery.
Which means if you make USD 1000 monthly, you pay USD 500 for each year to Skrill for the service that you don't want and need.
Probably you will re-convert to USD in your bank with additional expense if you need USD.
Paypal is not operating in my country. So Skrill is the only way to be robbed. That's why I want Payoneer.

36
Did you post this on their Twitter and FB pages?

How's about emailing them and putting this request to Jon Oringer via twitter.

Otherwise you are just crying in the wilderness with no one to hear. :'(
As far as I know SS follows this forum. But I did Tweet either Oringer and SS anyway.
SS Replied as "sorry for the inconvenience. We'll definitely share your feedback with our Team."
Thank you :)

Q1 + Q2 2015

Earnings: 198.000.000 $
Download: 69.300.000
Items (June 2015): 57.200.000

Q1 + Q2 2016

Earnings: 240.000.000 $ (+21%)
Download: 84.200.000 (+21%)
Items (June 2015): 92.000.000 (+61%)

- Shutterstock Earning increase 21% in a year,
- Almost all contributors complaining about earning decrease,
- Where do you think the "increased earnings" are?

I would guess it has to do with something copyrighted (or which they are concerned might be) in your submission. Compliance is the name of the branch of Shutterstock support that handles claims about copyright infringement
Thank you Jo Ann. I wonder why they haven't written just "trademark" as always

Shutterstock.com / Re: Large image previews on SS ?
« on: October 26, 2015, 06:12 »
Such a bad feature for photographers. Even the new watermark can be cleaned easily although some of big previews has no watermark.
For those who believe big preview option will increase their sales, there should be "OPT IN" button in the profile section of each user.
I want to "OPT OUT" because I definitely believe it will decrease my sales!

iStockPhoto.com / Re: Money deducted from IS account
« on: February 08, 2015, 17:28 »
You should have received an email today explaining what happened, apologizing for the delay, with a link to your Payouts Report that shows how much will be paid out on Feb. 25th. If you haven't updated your payout information yet, you need to do so by Feb. 10th in order to receive your payment on the 25th. Receive is a nice choice of words since depending on the payout method you choose, it will be a number of days before the money is in your hands.
I have just received the apology response first time from IS as you explained. Thank you for informing.

123RF / Re: New images not posting to portfolio
« on: November 27, 2014, 07:50 »
Same issue.
I have decided to upload some of my images to 123RF and test if it sells or not. But nothing happens after submission and still waiting.
I guess my test is over from now. On weekend I will delete images.
