Where is the professionalism or sense of urgency - or even compassion for the frustrated buyers?
When did they *ever* have compassion for the buyers? That is nothing new. It was always an "if you don't like it, leave. And don't let the door hit you in the ass" attitude there. More and more buyers seem to be taking them up on it now though.

oh how exciting.. cute new icons!
(I have nothing else to be excited about).
Did you see how messed up they are too? Some people who don't have any Flash files have Flash icons and for some, their icon is incorrect to the number of downloads they have for that category. Man, what a bunch of TOTAL mess ups. LOLOL

For some reason, I can't see the icons. It's just a blank white space.

Which would make Getty the stupidest corporation in the world, since iStock was their cash cow. It appears that not only has the cash cow been milked dry, but now it is a downer cow flailing on the slaughterhouse floor.

Oh look, it's in iStock's favor too.

oh look, another epic fail. Even people that want to buy something at istock can't seem to get in the door:
from this thread: http://www.istockphoto.com/forum_messages.php?threadid=290922&page=1
I refered a buyer to istock. They told me when they hit the sign up button it said something to the effect of "we are experiencing a high volume of new sign ups please try again later". Unfortunately they are not going to try again later they just went to another site and found the image there. Is this a known issue? Buyers signing up seems kinda like a priority.

seriously, they really need to get someone in there that can handle this fraud crap without affecting the real buyers.
That's some brilliant fraud prevention there.

I just don't understand why BigStockPhotos was able to put a lid on this so fast and it's still going on at iStock.

don't worry. precedent has already been set and you get to keep the money and all the RCs. 
I don't think they get to keep the money. I think iStock keeps the money.

I thought Calgary was aware of it yesterday and was looking into it? Yet it's still happening? If other (lesser) agencies can deal with it, why can't the multi-million dollar leader of the industry deal with it as well? Maybe iStock needs to hire BigStock for consulting. Pathetic.

Maybe iStock has decided to give independents a boost towards next year's RC targets...

I'm beginning to think they have outsourced their IT to India.
More like China. LOL

I'm wondering if Istock is doing any follow up with all these disgruntled buyers. Do they just let them go elsewhere? Do they care? Is it it such a small amount of the bottom line that they just do nothing and let it go? Are they calling, or sending private emails to these people to retain their business? A simple phone call, or email just might go a long way. Something like: "We appreciate your business, please bear with us while why get our s**t together". I know... not what most would like to see happen here, but curious anyway .
That would be a negative. I know personally the designer who posted the above and know she's never been contacted by iStock.

Why does Lobo have to lock every single thread with a snarky comment? Why not a "We are very concerned with protecting our contributors IP rights. Thanks for noticing, we are looking into it."? Oh, wait, that's because they don't give a crap about you and your IP rights (and it shines through time and again). http://www.istockphoto.com/forum_messages.php?threadid=289322&page=2#post5545062

^ i guess that was kinda a stoopid question. I miss all the good stuff since I can't read the forum pages at work (I don't think my boss would appreciate it). BTW Caspixel, are you still banned?
Yup. Still banned. I'm certain it's for life. 
I can have a friend start an account and we'd sell it to you so you can get the latest emails from iStock and read the forums? 
LOL. Well, I can read the forums fine. I just can't post. And I certainly wouldn't want to pay for such a "privilege".  I still have an account there too. And can even post on my blog.

There seems to be an increase in deleting comments that are critical of them today. Wonder if that is their New Year's resolution. Only Woo-Yaying allowed.
How can you tell when stuff is deleted? Or is it just that you read a post and then when you went back it was missing?
Yes.

I'm not going to complain if it means I get to keep the commissions earned,
Except they'll probably make it retroactive and delete the incorrect amounts from your account. Don't request a payout until you know for sure or you'll end up owing them money!

More epic failures.
Failure to update the royalty pages with the new 2011 structure.
Failure to even inform people if their royalty percentage has changed, despite the fact that they said it would be rolled out on 1/1/11.
They must still be on vacation.

I seriously can't even believe you guys have been left hanging like this. Unbelievable there has been no announcement or true indication that they have implemented the changes, even though they announced that they'd go live on 1/1/11. Are they still on vacation or what. This is a global multi-million dollar business. They need to get their act together! They are worse than a start up! I have visions of them playing nerf basketball and Foosball and riding skateboards around the office instead of actually working.
Anyone remember that Christmas thread from last year or the year before where they had that office competition and spent the whole day creating gingerbread houses? Is that what they are doing up there every day? Baking cookies and getting massages?
