Nope, nothing bad here last days. What's going on?

even I could photoshop that out.

You see?!

Lol, this watermark is even worse than I thought. It takes two seconds - one move to remove it! So poor protection is no protection. Watermark is for protection, right?

500px, with full respect, you are great in contact and have professional talk, but there are some things you can improve... I think it would lure more photographers (and give you more chance to earn on it). Why beeing so stubborn if people offer you their work?

As said above, good option would be to choose if someone wants (better) watermark or not.

DC, thanks, but this is not what I was asking about...

If I get $175 for one photo I don't care about thieves.

That's sad to read. People expect respect from others when they don't respect themselfs... Weird thinking... 

But I would appreciate if an option to disable sharing will be made available.

Alex, please consider this one. It's huge point for me and maybe others, who care about using their images everywhere...

Btw, read my email and meybe you'll see why it's not good for our business... People can share our images with no limits if you accept no controled sharing. I find my images everyday in other places, without my permission, and I don't like it at all.


Edit,

looks like we can forget about our dreaming...
"social sharing will always be a feature of 500px. "

Thank you Alex for fast reply. Now I know clearly what I am standing on, uploading to 500px :|

Epsi, do you mean that page or others? http://subscribe.ru/group/na-zavalinke/7738098/

I just wrote second email to 500px about this all sharing. Found my images twice in few days...      

I thought that I'd left "background" out of one of my new files and went back in and added it after, so maybe they're taking it out and you have to put it back in?

Thought the same and did for 2 files but no, it doesn't make any sense. I thought maybe I misunderstand the meaning of "background" keyword? But then, why do they have the category: backgrounds/textures?

Beppe, but you know you answered first post from 2013, right?

Got email reply. For those who don't know:
"There seems to be a bug with the removal from the site itself for deleted images which is currently being addressed by our IT department so it may be that your files were affected as well. We'll need to check the matter further to know."

Another one huge LoL here  Wonder, how many people tried to delete files and don't know they can still sell their material...

So I should start painting I guess... 
I'm on FAA since Jan. too and sold nothing (huge zero) still. My 300 files just doesn't work, it doesn't earn on itself. Keywords and descriptions should be fine, I tweet it, share on Facebook and get quiet in reply. Waste of money in my case and $30 is a lot.
Btw, I sell pretty often on RB and if they costed me $30 I would pay with a smile Something is wrong with FAA for me.

our web site is beta version, But its ready ! if you have any problem you can contact us at [email protected]

No, I don't have any problems here. I just see you missed some important descriptions here: http://dubistock.com/members/license.php

One of few empty infos on the site:

Standard
Description of Royalty Free license.

Extended
Description of Extended license.

Ok, that's interesting... Two months ago I uploaded some files to see what happens and guess what. The pricing changed! Howcome? I set up my own, higher pricing but now I see files much cheaper... What's going on? Are we walking through the same as with stocktal?

chrisbradshaw, did you ever ask them how many times people downloaded your work (for free) from this site?

Quote

then you have 50% free as costs of production, and from next 50% you pay the taxes... (19% I guess

That is correct, but note that it works only to 85 tys PLN (about 25 000 USD), then you pay 32% with no deductions...

I wish I had that problem/ income!
