To me it's also strange that one can't easily see earnings after last payment. To me that is more important than gross earnings, because I want to see how much I have until next payment.

I wonder why someone would go to all the trouble to run an online photo contest if not to derive some economic gain. Signing over copyright in that case is working for free. The fact that there is some "prize" involved, whether or not ever paid to some eventual winner, is much like buying a lottery ticket. Only the uninformed are led to that behavior.
This was mastercard contest. Main prize was dream vacation worth 10000 euros.  For every submitted photo you have to make one money transaction with mastercard. I guess their agenda was to make as many transactions as possible, rather then stealing photos from people....but anyway, I decided not to send images, because I doubt I will win the prize, and my photos will become their photos. Plus, I don't really believe in contests where jury has to decide what, or who is the most beautiful (like Miss World contest for example).....

I just wanted to submit some of my images to one online contest, when I noticed those small letters in the end of terms and conditions. It says that contest organizer owns full copyright for all images submitted to contest.

I think there is no point to talk about it because term RF is already in use, but I like the most PO or SF

Microbius,
this thread was read 562 times, and no one gave you some other answer. I was reading how you struggle to find some solution, and first I didn't want to say anything. Later I decided to say few words about the only real solution, but frankly, now I regret. Because you don't want to listen. I live where piracy exists in it's worst form, and I am offering my help. Because you don't want to accept the fact someone knows something better than you do, I give up.
And let me tell you something, I was the one who wasted a lot of time, not you. Go, and fight alone. You will need a lot of time just to learn half of what anyone who lives here knows about it. And you can be sure I won't interfere your battle against "evil ghosts".
Just, there is one truth. You can't win against piracy. Not with that attitude, and especially not without help.
I wish you good luck!
Also, if anyone wants to join me in my battle, I am ready to open new thread called whatever you want, and to start posting broken links of pirate sites.

they may actually benefit from being linked from a high-level blog like this, giving them a better placement in search engines
if we do this list, we should write links as broken urls, with spaces in between or some replaced characters
sure

If you want, I could start by finding all pirated websites that I can find, and posting links here. Then, everyone of us could search some of those sites everyday, to find stock images.
All these websites have their own search engine, so you can just type "stock", and you will get results with posts with pirated stock images.Then you have to open the post to see where images are uploaded (to rapidshare, megaupload, letitbit, deposit files...etc) and to report whet you found to those sharing services. They will then delete pirated files from their server.
Some of these pirated websites don't show links to guests, so you will have to register an account to be able to see the link.
If you think the idea is not bad, I am ready to help. If you still think that you don't have time to do it, than I'm afraid you can't expect that anyone else is going to help you (unless you pay him/her).

I'm just saying that I see that all the time, every day, all my life everywhere. To me, it looks like we won't live enough to see the world without piracy.
For you, world probably looks much different, and much better.
I was in America for 6 months, and I can understand that. I would like to live in such surrounding, that will give me the picture of a world that follow some rules. Unfortunately, majority of the world still lives in some kind of chaos.
That's why I'm not growing big hope about killing criminal of any kind, and I don't think we can do anything about it.
But, I don't say we should give-up. I'm saying (like I said in the thread where Microbius and I had discussion), that we should stick in chasing people who steal from us. We can't kill piracy. But we could probably make things better in microstock world by shutting down posts with pirated images stolen from microstock.
I think there is enough photographers on this forum to kill almost all posts with pirated images. Just everyone of us should every day report few posts with images from pirated sites to rapidshare, megaupload etc...
And soon, the number of pirated images will fall enough.
But when I said this in the last thread the discussion went in some other way..

You still don't understand that huge percent of the world's economy depends on pirated software? Most countries in Asia and Eastern Europe still use pirated software in their companies. Do you really think it's so easy to get rid of this problem?
There is also powerful mafia behind it.
This question is similar to the everlasting question about narcotics: Why Afghanistan still produces 80% of worlds opium when NATO is there? Everyone knows that 80% of all heroin and cocaine in the world comes from Afghanistan. Only small amount of it gets caught in Turkey (few tons every year), which is 10 times more than the amount of drugs that gets caught in whole Europe every year.
Now, 80% of that amount is traveling through Kosovo to reach West Europe and America. Kosovo is also under KFOR control, but narcotics don't get caught even there.
And yet, everyone here knows for that problem. It was even on the TV many times, and even one Italian reporter made a movie about it.
Someone obviously earns BIG money on piracy....and someone earns BIG money on drugs. Both are powerful enough to pay certain people not to take any actions about it, because, unfortunately, everyone has the price.

Same here. There is a thread about it on Istock forum.

Thanks Scott,
I will do it when I upload next time.
466
« on: July 19, 2010, 17:18 »
I will test it next time when I upload...I'm really confused...
Although, upload page looked a bit different in FF than in IE. In FF every image had an edit link below, and in IE there was only one edit link, written in big font.
467
« on: July 19, 2010, 16:49 »
Hmmm, it worked in IE. But in Firefox it gives me the error.

Strange, when I click just save, everything is ok, and all data have green check mark, which means data is OK. But when I click submit, it forgots categories, so I have to categorize them again.
469
« on: July 19, 2010, 16:43 »
Yes, I do everything as usual. And I can save the data. but if I click save and submit, I get the error message. I tried both, clicking "save and submit" right away, and saving data first and submitting later. I always get the error message when I want to submit.

Does anyone have problems submitting images to BS today?
I save all data, keywords, categories etc., but when I click submit I get the message that images don't have all necessary data. After clicking "submit" button, I notice the website didn't remember categories.
No matter how many times I repeat the procedure, I get the same message.

So far I have stuff at dreamstime,fotolia, big stock, graphic leftovers, depositphotos, and 123rf. I have tried shutter stock, but have been unsuccessful so far. That initial 10 is hard!
Hmm... I was counting Shutterstock and Istock too.

Thank ya! How long did it take you to build your portfolio?
To how many sites you submit images? Do you submit to all major sites? I would say, you can make $100-$200 with 300 images online if you have them on all major sites.

Thanks Elena! That's really kind of you. It always amazes me how promptly you react to our requests.

« on: July 18, 2010, 15:38 »
Well, you can clone-out every watermark if you want, but I didn't notice this additional one.
Thanks Elena!!
Could you please explain how to make this additional watermark to be there by default?

I agree
