Well seems to  have been rather a lot of ELs sold yesterday considering how rare they are there.

I should have said that it is probably more of a mistake than actual fraud. One image has been downloaded twice so that will definitely be a mistake.  Would be nice if the others are real though as they are few and far between at BS.
It's similar subject matter so could be genuine.  Will keep my fingers crossed

Yea I'm still waiting.  I had two EL's of the same image within one minute of each other last month but haven't yet seen a refund.  I just see it as inconceivable that two distinct people would download the same image within 60 seconds of each other.

I would be really annoyed if after I cash out they  decide they want the 175$ back. !!

No children, it was 2 illustrations : one of a rocket ship in space and the other a set of weather icons...

Well we will just have to wait and see.   

Bad is all I can say.  I used to get $300-$400 sales, now 5-10 $27 dls a month, a few $1-$7 and an occasional (every 2-3 months) $100-$200 sale.  Alamy is fighting against micros.  I knew this would happen after the first commission cut. Pretty soon they will be just another low paying site.  My monthly sales have gone from about $750-$1000 to $150-$300.  I have been with them for seven years.

That's exactly what I am getting.  Mostly 27$ dls with  a few low ones and the occasional big one.  It seemed good to me as I wasn't expecting anything else being relatively new to the site.

It makes uploading to Alamy much easier if the keywords are in order of relevancy and the first 7 keywords at Fotolia were always weighted more heavily in the searches but I'm not sure if that is still the case.

I gave up uploading there by ftp as it the uploads dissapeared too often.  I always upload through the site now.

Hard to find anything to disagree with in your post Beppe.  I don't understand the negatives either.  I gave you a +1, so at least one negative was erased

Negatives gone. This post didn't deserve a minus.

The hidden tab shows soft rejections, files that you can resubmit after making changes; I dont know where to find hard rejections.

I guessed that it might be the case.

Wow.  I'll work on this later today.  With all my models and various combinations, I'm not looking forward to it.

I found it best to put them up in blocks of the same model/models and then batch attatch the releases, batch set the price,  send them to curator and then upload another set.  It's way too much scrolling and complicated otherwise .

In video he says over 40k

I think that they are currently paying out about $3M per month.

So average payout is less that 75$ a month.

 the bridge is a joke.

Interested to know why you think the bridge is a joke.  I think it's great as the only thing I have to do once images are uploaded to SS is to go in to BS for payouts.
I make a bit more at BS than I do at Canstock

Haha brilliant
