I must say Google works very good! Just few minutes ago I got respond... It took 1-2 weeks and whole article with my (personal) image is down, wow.
https://support.google.com/legal/troubleshooter/1114905?rd=1 Shutterstock is helpful and fast as well. I really don't like when my image is used if I wasn't ask, if I'm not even informed, no "thank you", no nothing... 503

Google is helpful in geting images down in that situations. I would be really rich if I get money for all "borrowed" images.
Btw. Did anyone manage to get his money from thefts? Where do you start, what to do first? ![]() 504
General Stock Discussion / Re: How to remedy the pain of submission after images already have been uploaded« on: May 25, 2014, 06:00 »I just spend more than half a day submitting 56 images to 8 websites... Strange that you have problems with them. I upload there often and it looks this way: in the morning/ evening I do upload (over 70 files lately in one batch), I click on "upload" and I go to make some tea or breakfast/ supper, or... anything else doing at home every day. I don't feel I need to stare at uploading processing ![]() After few minutes all images are uploaded so I click on "no more images in this batch". No problems with crashing flash upload here (it used to be few months ago but stopped and works fine now). Next day (or two days later) I have images accepted and so I set this few things fast. It takes about 10-30 seconds/ image. So pretty fast all images are ready to sell. I have IPTC correct and files properly prepared so all I need to do is to choose these few most important keywords (few clicks) and set PR, MR, RF, RM, etc... And I do it during tea time, easy and lazy, taking my time. Full relax before/ after hard work with taking photos outside. "images can't be edited before approval" I think that's very good! I wouldn't spend my time on editing before I know it's (not) accepted. I lost to much time with micros that way. 505

I wonder about FT pricing in Westend61 case. Is this company able to set their own prices? Or ... how did they do this?
http://www.fotolia.com/id/54998333 It's from 20 credits for XS to 495C for XXL size and 795C for EL. They keep the same pricing level everywhere else. Example http://www.westend61.de/koala2/collectionLanding8.html#preview and all over around... 507
General Stock Discussion / Re: Do we earn a extended license comission if these guys sell.. wallsheaven.de« on: May 23, 2014, 08:41 »
So here we go again. I got fresh answer from FT.
My question was: how much do I earn if they sell image (as print product)? FT: If this partner sells product your commission will be the same as if you sold image directly through FT. So if I understand correct, if they sell product for example for 29.84 or 68.80 I get 0,... C from FT? ![]() Not big lost to me as I have only one last (garbage) image here when waiting to reach my 50C. Good luck people in doing your business in some "awesome places" with more ways to get more money! ![]() 508

I've found many images with logos of micro sites... I don't use Pinterest (and never did), have no idea what it is and how it works, but I don't think it's legal usage?

I'd like to ask, what does one license exactly mean? If we have client that wants to use image on his website and he buys file from any microstock, he uses it once... right? If he buys it from Canva, he uses it once as well, right? So what is the difference here?

If you mean www.crestock.com it doesn't work in Poland (two different distant computers). Very weird.

Crestock.com / Re: Is Crestock gone?« on: May 21, 2014, 01:48 »... buyers will probably go to DPC first now because its so cheap and low entry level to get images there. Eee... what images? The same that people opted out or removed with theirs accounts? ![]() 517

General Stock Discussion / Re: Protect the market« on: May 18, 2014, 02:59 »1) not a single site that has subscription sales. Stockfresh someone said? They do pay 50%, correct. But $1/ DL? Not worth the effort. ... I would say Pond5. I would say Symbiostock. We need no Agencies but Agencies need us. Which agency do you think would best serve your interests if they were a top seller? 1. My Sys. it's obvious if I get 100% of prices set be me ![]() 2. Pond5 - I set my own prices and get 50% 3. Alamy - they still pay well and I get 50% too (and yes, I have monthly sales here). 522

After few hours it works correctly. Must have been some temporary technical problem. I managed to upload and submit new stuff.
As you say, this site looks old and tired and needs some changes, it needs more new technical work. However it's the best POD site I know now. I thought Crated will do something new, but as we can see, they don't care a lot ![]() Hope FAA will get up and do good work soon. 523

Upload question here.
I try to upload 5 (or 1) files and submit process is stuck. Is it only me? Used to have upload problems with few files before but never all batch at once. I can: upload, edit, click on submit and it goes, and goes, and goes... please wait.......... and that's it. Use Firefox with windows. 524

March was last month when something was going on here.
In April I had 3 (three) sales, In May I already have 1 (one!) sale LOL. I'm just waiting to reach my $50 (so close) and get out of here. If nothing changes, I'll have to wait about 2 years... (not) funny. |
