2+. I still have a few files on Fotolia and Veer, but I stopped uploading there years ago.

Because some folks here were getting annoyed with continual Symbiostock threads, so the Symbiostock forum was started.
I'm sorry and I don't want to be rude, but it seems you're one of them and your posts are out of the topic and doesn't make sense, once my post is inside a Symbiostock sub-forum buit within MSG forum by MSG team. As you can confirm on the top of the page:

Eh. You'll find out otherwise when Leo reopens the forums.

Yes...I guess Leo hasn't turned new registrations back on yet?

2707
Are you unable to use the Symbiostock forums?

Just had a whole batch of jpgs rejected for "excessive noise," though they're just the jpg versions of my accepted vectors. No noise, of course. Just a cranky photo reviewer. Maybe photo reviewers need more coffee in the morning? I'm cranky without my caffeine.

The Kinks - Tired of Waiting

2710
I plan to do more drawing and uploading to really increase my portfolios, and less time working in ad agencies. I'm hoping to transition to illustration full time within the next two years. Then I'll move to a nice, warm climate.

Off Topic / Any illustrators do animation? Any motion artists?

Ths is the first time I've seen a call for reels in the NY Times:

If you are a motion animator or illustrator and would like to create a video for the Modern Love animated monthly series, please e-mail your sample reel and contact information to [email protected].

Is it just me or is anyone else having a back-to-back Worst Month in two years as well?




How do you know until PP sales are in? November could turn out to be great. I'm hoping my November turns out like my October.

Sure, I'd be happy to do freelance. Here are some of my people:

It would be nice if everyone got involved in the symbiosis one way or another, but I don't think you can (or should) require people to do things. Encourage, sure.

Leo has made such an enormous effort/contribution that none of us can come close to that, though some others also make very large contributions, some help when they can, and some go off on their own. C'est la vie.

Symbiostock - Hosting / Re: Where can I host my Symbiostock site?
« on: December 18, 2013, 18:45 »
I'm with Bluehost too, no extras purchased. So far no problems, and they're very helpful...with the live chat I get someone who fixes things within a couple of minutes, even when it's an issue with WordPress and not with Bluehost.

2717
You may have to wait a bit as Leo has disabled new registrations for the moment.

There have been several spam posts recently so Leo turned off new registrations until he's back from his break. That's why you can't register right now.

iStocklawyer:
"3. Why do we remove royalties for fraudulent downloads?
It stops contributors (real or faked) from self downloading with credits bought with stolen credit cards and absconding with the royalties."

http://www.istockphoto.com/forum_messages.php?threadid=349717&messageid=6798577


What are fake contributors?

My legal team doesn't allow refunds because it prevents penguins from growing mustaches. It's a huge problem that needs to be contained.



I just read those weasel words 4 or 5 times without receiving any enlightenment.

Surely, if a person has a stolen credit card, there are much more efficient ways to use it than this convoluted scheme... buying stock images and collecting the tiny royalities... seriously?


Not only that, but spending time creating acceptable content before stealing someone's credit cards and buying the content from yourself.

BME on Shutterstock, not sure about iStock yet. Amazingly I got a payment from Veer, which was a big surprise, because I stopped uploading there more than a year ago. I sometimes forget I have a few files there.

Symbiostock - General / Re: What . with spam user registration?
« on: December 09, 2013, 14:20 »
Hello?

Did anyone noticed that lately lots of users register with emails @webmail.co.za, @outlook.com, @hotmail.com?
All those emails are ticked as spam emails (by google search)

How to prevent this spam registrations?
Install an anti-spam plugin. Try anti-captcha.

Sales for me took off on Shutterstock last month and stayed fairly steady at iStock. They dropped at both agencies after Thanksgiving (which I expected, based on what I was selling), but so far I think Shutterstock sales are a little higher than they were in October.

This is very sad news, especially at this time of year. What an amazingly talented man. My heart goes out to his loved ones.
