Envato / Re: PhotoDune in Open Beta

Photo dune should have smaller prices than Istock, but better percentage for contributor part of earnings... So for big impact they have to bring us more money per sale than on top tier agencies, but with a bit less prices for customers...

Yep! Photodune, raise our part on 35-40% (can be based on levels) and you have big chance to be in Top Tier...
I think that isn't big deal if Yuri or someone like him is already there, it has to be massive campaign of every contributor who want to be part of new multimedia market...
Your chance is bigger than any other new agency till now, only because Photo Dune is part of other successful multimedia market...

What we can to do is to promote sites with better deal for us...
It is good on personal level and on complete market too...
That is the best way how to protect our effort...

So, let's start massive campaign of promoting our portfolios on agencies such as Alamy!!!

I hope that Evanto will be on that side between agencies one day... :)

I don't even know where he gets his figures.  It's $25 on IS, max.

All RF licences on Alamy are ELs or very similar to that...

So! Promoting this and our Alamy portfolios to the customers is the best and honest way how to fight against lower and lower commissions on microstock agencies!
You haven't to threaten with deleting portfolio, or  with mass campaign on forums...
Just promote better deal for you!!!

I can't upload MRs!
 I put all required jpg MRs for one image in one zip file... After uploading I marked it on drop down menu as Model releases and submit..
But after submitting I get error message: "Release Forms must be a zip containing a '.pdf', '.jpg' or '.png', got a zip containing ''  ???
Aslo do I have to upload MRs for every new image with same models...?

Yuri is already there! It seems that Evanto is not too cheap for him....


P.S. Hahahaha! I didn't see post with question before my post...  ;D But I gave an answer!

I can't find some of my images with search engine even in my portfolio, so they are invisible for customers.. I see them only if I click on link of my whole portfolio...

Isolated eagle from other background, placed on blue sky background with plane traces... Not too much real...

Maybe one day $ will worth more than .... Who knows!

Has been before (in 2002). Can be again. All in the hands of the central bankers to decide.

Yes, cycles of global economy are about 8-16 years, so probably $ will have another peak at the end of Obama's second mandatory...

Don't! I get warning!

really? never had one! I do it rarely but when I feel a picture is worth I open it change minor and resubmit
Yep! :-[
I was answered to support that reasons of my re-submitting was approved status on BigStock and sometimes when I think that I am able to fix errors, nothing more...

I am in microstock for a three years...
Whole the time most of people here predict negative future for microstock, but I see quite opposite...

Microstock is part of multimedia business, multimedia is part of marketing business,so I think that microstock in natural solution in multimedia, through time due to technology progress...

So microstock will continue to evolve....

Also, I haven't noticed yet that sites with less prices sell more than three years before or migration of customers to cheaper sites, even with bigger and bigger prices for customers on main stock sites...

I think that many of us here don't understand quite this business...

Exclusivity isn't excellent thing for agencies... Only in marketing sense, but not in earnings... Exclusive images or portfolios is only good for commercial things with  slogan "here and nowhere else" but true and bonus earnings for agencies is on non-exclusive content...

There is a big difference, if the agency paid me 16% of sale money, or 40% ...

Buyer probably (in microstock) is not looking for a unique image that no one has,or is this image in portfolio of another agency.. If it is important to find and have unique image, then buyer probably will search in macro collections...

P.S.
Also, another buyer can buy same exclusive picture, so isn't soo so much good for agency to promote their exclusive content to customers, because from customers point of view isn't matter if another buyer have same image from this agency or from another... Agency want money!
