They will sell our images on the black market, on the street with dvd and usb sticks  ;D

Im actually thinking switching to Payoneer from Paypal, because i get a Debit card from Payoneer, where on Paypal you can not withdraw to a Debit card here in EU and other European countries.

But the non activity fee is worrysome  :-[

What's the point of me uploading there? I would only compete with myself and earn less. I upload myself directly to Adobe and Alamy. Is there a point uploading to Eyeem if I am uploading to iStock? Won't Getty anyway get my images because of iStock?

You answered your own question. There is no point uploading to another middle man company. Just like Zoonar! I've lost like 40% of my commissions plus the 30% from the original company (Alamy) due to these type of companies!

I can only speak from my experience, since i started with iS, no more images got to Getty through EyEem!

And waiting if an image will be accepted for "Partner" could take up to 3-6 Months. >:(

What about using creative common images, and blurring them urecognizable as background?
Like with Alien Skin Exposure wich also adds Bokeh blobs..

You can not upload to Getty at all, you have to be invited to work exclusive with them,
 you mean iStock, it is the same ESP upload page.

Is it "legal" or possible to hire some freelancer from fiverr or upwork to do this for me?

He would have to give me all the rights on the illustration etc.

Stuff like that is usually made with a plugin called Plexus in After Effects. Would have no idea how to do it in Photoshop, but if you google plexus style illustrations in photoshop or something... you might get something of use.

Thank you for the information...

Software / After Effects? Network Dots and Lines
« on: September 06, 2018, 07:44 »
I want to learn how to make illustrations like this: https://www.istockphoto.com/at/en/photo/3d-future-network-technology-gm801051868-130029415

All tutorials i find are with After Effects and its a clip of lines and dots, not images.
Is there a way to make this in PS?, do i have to do this in After Effects?, i never used AE.  ???

« on: August 15, 2018, 16:43 »
Im not on 500px, but is this the same like with EyeEm?

How long you wait until your images appear on Getty?

If i upload to 500px is this exclusive?

Bad July?, be prepared for even "better" August, because the customer side of SS doesnt even load properly. (EU)

Im sorry if this is of-topic or i should start a new Topic for my problem.

I had a problem with payout on Adobe contributor, it was only showing Skrill, ( no paypal )
Also the currency was automatically set to Korean WON.

So i started a Chat on contributor help panel, i said to him that i a cannot find paypal but just skrill,
He said he can help me, so he reset my account, my portfolio was gone!, but the worst my earnings also gone!  :-\.
he said he was not aware that im an contrubotur and can not do anything, and repeated i should by a subscription, or converse my lost earnings in a subscription?

This is miserable, Adobe has made money with my content, but i got nothing!  :-X

« on: June 12, 2018, 07:04 »
Hi, I take this post to ask a question, apart from uplod pictures, should I be active on the site (like, follow peoples, etc.)?

thanks

Sadly the images with more likes are the ones that pop-up first in customer search, this does not mean that a photo without likes wont be found.
Beeing active in Challenges is a waste of time, because its always the same contributors to win or be the first, even though their images suck, the top contributors are licking each others #*rse.  >:(

Why not upload directly on Getty? Why go through a middle man and lose money?

Im a newbie, but i heard that Getty does not accept new contributors?
I have applied "work with us", but nothing happens.
