Strictly speaking, you are not allowed to use other people's work in your stock images and so using a sky from Photoshop or Luminar (unless it is one of your own sky pictures) is not allowed. It would be interesting to hear Matt from Adobe Stock's view on this? Although I don't know how to bring it to his attention!

I am pretty certain that those skies are labeled for commercial reuse meaning that you can reuse a photo in any way, even commercially.
That isn't applicable to the stock question. You don't have the rights so you couldn't use them in a stock submission. You could use them to make a pamphlet or a billboard or something.

I was just answering the questions about a second account as I have a second account just for exclusive video. Maybe thats a special case. I didnt research anything past that knowledge.

"I just wonder if its illegal to make a different account and become exclusive in p5"
No.

Wouldn't it be better for Adobe to offer their software for free to attract people to paying decent rates for stock art? Makes much more sense to me.
That does seem to make more sense. I dont know how many comments Ive read about people who hate paying the subscription and have switched to other software. Woo them back.

JoAnne, none of those links are working for me.
I just tried a couple and they worked. Chrome, MacOS, I am logged in to Adobe Stock (although that shouldn't matter)...
Just tried a couple which worked: FF, Win, not logged in
I must have some bad cookies. I opened a private window and I could see them.

Weird. I'm in FF, and I'm signed in in another tab, but searching AS thinks I'm not signed in and won't show me anything. I keep getting page not found. Guess it's me somehow.

Now, there is at least a chance to convert the people visiting for the free collection into paying customers.
Maybe, but there's a better chance of converting paying customers to the free content. I mean someone who isn't likely to pay, who is drawn in by high quality free content might buy one or two of something they find missing in that tier. But the paying customer, I would imagine, is more likely to not buy as many as possible and choose from the free section instead. JoAnne, none of those links are working for me.

My bad. I thought "enhanced" was Adobe's term for "extended".

Is there anywhere where we can read about the Licensing terms for the free images, I couldn't find it. Is there uses they cannot be used for such as Print on demand etc?
Its the regular standard license. Which is crazy. Even Getty made their free editorial images come in a labeled box with rules. Even worse, videos come with an extended license. For free.

Ouch. I mean, just call it rain. The FAQ says: "Customers who want more options are offered additional paid content results." So either that is incorrect, or somebody dropped the ball or something. The FAQ also says: "Content for the free collection is sourced in collaboration with a small group of Adobe Stock contributors who have all been compensated for these assets." That's not a selling point to me. I don't really care that someone else got money to hurt my chances of sales (although hopefully it's more than the $16 per image in the Google deal). eta: from Pickerell: "Contracts were negotiated with each artist individually and the amount paid per asset varied. However, Adobe management specified that the price for each asset should be at least above the annual RPI of that asset. The price paid is for one-year use in the Free collection. Assets will be returned to the Paid collection within the coming year and replaced with new content. In this way free assets will vary over time to help the collection stay relevant and attract new customers while minimizing negative impacts to the companys paid collection." https://www.selling-stock.com/ViewArticle.aspx?id=8cf3a8f9-8795-4bc4-8ef8-d699da5f165eIt seems like there's enough content to satisfy anyone. 10K business images is a pretty good pot to pull from and cycling stuff in and out will just increase the depth of what's available. The point of a "free" collection is to put the dross there and entice with the good stuff. But here, the good stuff is being given away. Diverse model shoots in authentic locations produced by factories? I mean we can't compete with that. Unsplash can't compete with that. It's disappointing.

How do you guys keyword images? I use bridge and it takes lot of time.
Are there any keywording services available? or tools which are good to use?
I use Bridge as well. For some reason, it always takes 30 seconds or so to assign the meta I enter to the image. Basically, I grab a set of similars and assign them a general set of keywords that mostly apply, go get a drink, come back, and then check them one by one to add or remove anything applicable.

Over $4000 on Shutterstock. I haven't checked the other sites. It was rejected the first try at submitting it. It has been in since 2012
Is a 16 year resurrection of a thread a record?

No. All the links and reading say that if youre not actively participating in production, then it becomes royalties for the purposes of taxes.

Its passive, but that isnt the point. Its still income subject to self employment taxes.

No. Youre actively doing it, so its still a business.

A -texture- is a piece of copyrighted work. A chair does not necessarily have any protection (like a design patent) and nobody will care unless it is recognizable as -art-.

I mean, apparently the Canva license allows it, but I dont think most realize that.

Did yall know theres a huge group of people who use canva to create simple designs which they offer for sale as digital downloads on Etsy? Nothing extra to the contributor.
