It's obvious. Aliens have invaded Shutterstock and it's on self destruct.

Don't forget they are using our images in this app.
And for free.
I guess THIS is why they invented the gigantic preview.
I mean, shouldn't we get a compensation for this image use??? What do you think???

S/he may be back under some other username. We better watch out. Stock agencies have zillions of images... The agencies are not too interested in exposing a thief. After all it is not their work.
Well done stvagna for exposing this thief!! 👍👍👍

There is always an option to walk away.

A few days ago, I got an email from DT that someone wants to buy one of my photos as P-EL and if I agree, I should enable that checkbox that allows EL licensing. So I did that witihin half an hour after I received e-mail. But my earning balance hasn't changed since then so obviously buyer didn't buy that photo (yet?).
So I'm curious if someone has similar experience, how long does it take after enabling EL licensing and actually receiving money.
I have had at least 20 of these requests, did the same thing you did and not one of them has ever purchased the image.
People are like that. They "want to" buy and then they just disappear. It's not Dreamstime 's fault.

Maybe it's an error in their system. Email them and ask.

I totally agree with you! But what other websites are there to "discover"? Most of them are offering big previews now it seems. Bigstock doesn't but I'm sure they will soon ...
Don't know if there are any 'new' websites to discover, was thinking of doing more freelance work and selling directly. I do these from time to time. SS has the largest preview from any other agency and the weakest watermark on top of that. At least there is more time now to do the Fotolia and IStock keywording properly, ☺ enjoy both of these sites.

are you going to pull your port from SS if the preview isn't reduced in size?
Don't know just yet. Pulling the entire port would be drastic. Depends if there are other changes coming.

For me the huge preview is the primary concern. Due to that, I am not uploading to SS. There are other agencies and other ways to earn with photography, and this is actually a great opportunity to discover them, maybe move on to the better. SS was my comfort zone.
Also....I signed the petition and feel that since I did that, it means something.

For me DT has been okay,
with sales every day. Just had 6 sales per day.

I have not uploaded in weeks but it would be insane to delete my entire portfolio - all the images are in the wild anyway. I'm hoping my new images will find a nice home somewhere...
Agree. I haven't uploaded anything either and I will not upload, if they'll keep insane preview & save feature. I work hard for my images and the free download 1500X1100 with that pathetic watermark makes me feel sick.

Always request payout first, get confirm of the transfer, then dump them.
True.

Google is helpful .... Search ' how to remove watermark photo ' and you come up with plenty of results and there are even software for this thieving. Knowledge of Photoshop tools isn't necessary.
There are sites that sell stolen images. Check out Fiverr."I will give you x amount of stock photos for 5$.

The problem is the super huge preview. You can download the image at 1500 * 1100 which is insane. The v2 watermark is too weak on many images.
I disagree. I think v2 works just fine on the large previews. As Martha said, I am still waiting for all my images to switch. I only saw 1 still not switched on my random check this morning, but there are probably more.
Yes it does work fine with the large preview.... for thieves!

Will it solve 100% of the problem on 100% of everyone's images? No. But they have certainly made an effort. If someone is still not pleased with the outcome, the only thing left to do is to delete your portfolio. Bottom line. 
😯
Is it really something about to be happy or upset?
V3 would be easier and safer for us and SS 😉
Yes. V3 would be safer, less photos would end up stolen, and both contributors and SS would make more money.

Why dont you guys write something On the SS forums. they dont think we care. They don't come here that much Guys.
Agree.

What do you think of the 123rf preview/ watermark? For me, it's better than SS but on some images you really have to search "where is the watermark".
They're those with textured background, like forest, fabric, brown, green, grey middle shades. They too offer a large preview 1300*866, and you can save the image.

Checked my sales - everything looks normal there so far, but anything can happen with SS.

And then get slated for complaining no thanks
They practically donate all your images free. What do you got to lose?
