My all images, all gallery, old photos are in photogenica.pl Looks like it's a partner from DP. I've found images deactivated long time ago, months, or even a year ago... It's still on partner's site   I didn't upload the same images anywhere else. DP was the only one who could sell that old photos. I'm waiting my last $4 and I'm out of here for good!

Lets try this question upside down - what would you (all photographers) do if SS offers $1 (!) for basic level? Can you imaging how many photographers will come here? How motivating it could be? It would be revolution in microstock (todays) world... 0,25, 0,33, 0,36, 0,38 $ - all will now be $1 for you, clear and fat $1  ? What do you do? ? And of course, they might use it in perfect marketing: "we are paying more than others, we are fair to photographers... we pay better for artists work " (you know what I mean...)

After updating you get raport on email, right? You see what was updated: 0-100, 100-200 etc... I don't remember now exactly.
I got last one in 800-900 section (had about 1500 files) so I had to check files between 800 and 900 or so in Sys - images - edit image. Bad (broken) image will not display. It must be dubled with correct file so you can delete it.
After that try to change prices, updated and it should work.

Few days ago I was thinking of taking that photos... I completly don't know why it comes to me when I think of this partners sites, re-sellers, secret lists of them, percent for us, $ for us, and all this cheap sh*t...

... While we are doing our best to motivate the photographers (hey, we offer a free photocommunity for everyone), grow our partner channels, grow our customer base and try to increase prices and commissions (40% for non-exclusives, up to 60% for exclusive photos), we still have to react on market shifts in the future. That is why we are still on the market and still growing. By the way, our percentage of payout compared to the big agencies is higher (some companies announce or have to announce their revenue and their total costs and payouts -> look what percentage of the revenue is commissions). Forgive me if I'm wrong, but... we get: panthermedia - 0,23 / 1DL (it's about 0,92 PLN) dreamstime - 0,35$ (over 1 PLN) veer - 0,35$ (like above) shutterstock (let's say middle level) 0,33 or 0,36$ (it's 0,99 PLN or 1,08 PLN)... etc... I don't remember pricing in Istock, anyone? However, mostly agencies pay 30% and as we can see, they are still (a little, but still) better. So, talking about only percentage doesn't mean much Yes, it is important this fair pricing (I mean %), but your offer is not that great to motivate, to say you are better than other players... And, I don't know how it is with others but I've had about 2-5 sales a month  At the same moment, with the same images I'm doing absolutely better with other agencies (in the worst case it's about 2 sales daily...) At the begining, when I did my first steps, I was honored to be part of this big PM. After one year I had my big doubts, I felt ther's something wrong, if I can't get even one payment (having regular payments somewhere else). I'm very sorry to say that, but for me this is absolutely not attractive, not motivating stock agency. So, here we are after 10 years, still fighting for every customer and sale and enjoying being part of this market. This days each stock site is fighting... Good luck, maybe something will change for better soon. Today it's a little to bad.

How did U do this?! I got that answer: "As for the withdrawal, you may withdraw payments for the sale of your images once the balance in your account reaches $50 or more. It is technically impossible to withdraw less."So I must wait this stupid $4 (drop by drop)...

I don't close it already, I just wait to reach the minimum payment with several images and I close it. You don't have to wait. They'll send you your money even under minimal treshold + PP for actual and next month.

Ufff, I think I've found the reason... One of old images was blank, bad upload or something and somehow I didn't know. I have about 1500 files and after each update I got email report with 1000 (1k) files, no more. After deleting bad file I got full report about all images and confirmation that all is updated. All prices are fine now, it works! Thanks Christine for trying to help

Yes, I did select both of these options The second one will change your existing images as well - it will also change anything else such as licence or model release options That's what I was expecting, but it didn't and that's why I'm asking here Something doesn't work  In the fact, I selected all... V Save as defaults? (Will apply to uploads as well).
V Update ALL existing images with new values? *Caution!*
V Update public network info.
V Update public image info.

I have problem with changing prices.
I set it in "symbiostock--> author options", set my own prices for every size, other than suggested. Safe it, update, and... some images are with new price, some with old...
Is it bug or I do something wrong?

One thing is thought provoking here... So many of us report overpayment, and they say it's only 9k/25k people...? Strange... May I ask you guys, why are you still with them? Is it worth? Is there no better (and more professional) place for your work in the world? I just can't understand why you accept this issues and treating... You do your photography only for making money, or you do it for fun and joy? If it's only business, should it go this way? I'm confused...

Over Payment Total=$19.98
Monthly Recoup Amount=$3.33I'm not sure if I should be happy rather than sad, seeing your numbers... Loooool  More there is... I closed my account in Jan. (they closed it for me), and now they say: "Rather than take this amount out of your royalty balance in one adjustment we have decided to schedule the removal of these funds over a 6 month period. Starting before the end of February 2014 we will begin removing $3.33. Once per month for the next six months we will recoup the balance of the over payment. "How will they do that if I'm not with them anymore? Waiting for my income for Dec. 2013, Jan, and Feb. 2014 (with PP). Nevermind. I was so happy having nothing to do with them anymore, and here we go again - like neverending story, oh god IStock is just amazing!!!
