I don't know who I'm talking to anymore so I'm going to keep it safe and stop posting about this  ::)

Take care and good luck to those who DO know what I'm talking about.

Good move! sometimes its best not to say anything at all, especially when talking way above ones head, right. :) be good.

Tyler need to open a ranking of earnings where the more you have done ($$$) the more you can post ;D

You can see a summary of PP sales for each image by clicking on "partner program" under "my uploads" on the left of your profile page

I checked and I could see my Partner program download numbers for each image, but I still can't find out any info on how much money I've earned in the PP. Are PP earnings paid out separately, or are they included in the total of my IS earnings?

they are in the total of your IS earnings, on the usual charts with green color

with such dismal performance at IS this month, i'm relying on partner programs to bring them up into my top 3. right now Photodune is doing better this month!!

PP earnings seem to arrive a week or two into the next month?

usually 2nd and 3rd

this month (downloads from May) only finished a day or two ago

0 sales on DT since June 20 (and after payout)

Fantastic!

there is really something going on there, after a BME last month I am having a very bad month

May 12 - 58 ($68.73)
June 12 - 22 ($22.84)

regarding the max number of sales - Aug 11 - 74 (56.74$)

Very exciting game! One of the best at the Euro.
The Italians really deserved the win! They where dominating most of the game.

Italy - Germany is going to be really exciting!!! Hope that germany wins!

what was exciting about this match? the crappy England playing defensive all of the time? England is playing like they never done before, very sad!

only saw excitement on the penalties.. IMO it was the weakest game of this EURO so far, better to see Ireland supporters singing with 4 goals on their net

3807
pure marketing no doubt about that

Whenever I have a lot of photos from a single shoot, I submit them in batches over a period of a year.  Avoids the dreaded "too many" rejections.    

DT and most sites store everything we upload for an indefinite period of time, so I'll upload the shoot all at once and then slowly process them during the year.  I haven't noticed the processing delay affecting search placement or sales.  

no it doesn´t, they look in your portfolio, they go back and search those keywords, if they find they will say you have already online.. (talking about too many or similar rejections)

I am convinced that the very first thing DT does is an electronic, automated search of your uploads to compare them to your port.  Any matching sets get an auto rejection for too similar regardless of the image differences.  Very frustrating indeed.

don´t know if is automatic (must be) but I am sure they do it, its the only agency doing that actually, SS does have a image tracker but its regarding the picture itself not the same keywords or other.. (something like already approved in your portfolio)

That's what I call football, great game so far!

are you serious? looks like the most boring game in this EURO

looks like no more portfolio in 123RF too, same for DP and DT

and now a joke to relax a bit: I am sure it will be hard for "him/her" to have a BME ;D

3811
after a few days/weeks with 8 to 10 sales per day, I am with 0 today, very very unusual... and only 7 hours to go

Same story, my friend!

If this will continue for more than a month, I'll stop to promote DT!

I was talking about FT actually, DT lol

Honestly, it's crazy to submit news shots to the micros. Try Alamy's news stream. At least you might get a decent return on your effort and avoid this cr@p about "too many" etc.

I wonder about that too BUT I had them all approved at SS, BigStock, 123RF, DP, YAY, FP, PM.. so kind of late, maybe next time

3813
Guys. You are so angry! Relax! It's only a forum post.

I feel so much better now LOL

I believe that next time you should contact him and perhaps iStock if you want, not in the forum

3815
the badge does look a litte too much, I dont think Yuri has 24 iMac, if so he would have made a video with all them like the profoto one :D so maybe its just a formality to the owner of that company

maybe this will be also featured on the reality show

3816
we don´t know how much these pics needed retouching, apart from that we are talking about 24 persons and 1 of them worked on over 250 files, which makes 1750 for other 23 (75 pics or 3 pics per hour)

options are always a lot

but one of them shouldn´t be lower pricing to get more buyers, its not a good solution once if you sell it lower you might find harder to sell for more after

Thanks for all the replies, I have adjusted the image and re-submitted, ill let you know what happens, to be honest I have not calibrated my new monitor yet  ::) I do own a spyder pro so ill have a go.
I have another question, when saving in photoshop there is the option "Embed color profile" should I tick or not?

 Convert to sRBG and embed it.

Quality 12 when you save the JPG ;)

I had a few sales every month but now since I'm 20 cents away from payout sales have suddenly stopped, how strange and mysterious!?!

Only in Micostock right ::)


it will show up ahah have 2 this month


Pfew, at least you didn't yell at me for digging out an old topic. It's just that I hate to waste forum space with new whinings :P

So it's official, Louis will be the buyer of my next sale on GL, if not, he's banned from this forum...and microstock...and Portugal…and this site

I am looking at your prices and it looks like you are selling very cheap (yep I know you get a lot more royalties %)

you seem to have max size as 5MP

FT
XS - 1
M - 3
L - 7

YOURS equivalent
XS - 0.5
L - 1
Original as L in FT (5MP) - 3
