My advice is to stop dealing with companies that mistreat you and find something else. If enough large contributors with high quality images leave and their bottom line starts to suffer, then maybe they will take notice but I doubt it even then.
Its not so easy to quit always, many people are making living out of it. Its also a passion for photography or creating designs which they want in their life. I always loved this company but now SS started being rude towards contributors. As you said, they do not care, money is money.

This is serious, I think ss shouldn't suddenly terminate the account. Atleast give them few days time to clarify things up first before banning it. These warez sites are full of stolen works and we as a contributor already facing too much losses due to it.

I still can see your portfolio here: https://www.shutterstock.com/g/Valentyn+VolkovMaybe your account is hacked or its a mischief of anyone. Its really hard to say shutterstock suspending the account just with that reason. All-free-download or any other free / gfx website is pure stolen content market, even I see mine as well as many popular contributor images being ripped off, such a shame to such website. Send all the proofs to SS and I believe they will surely consider it. Shutterstock never takes any action unless someone is complaining about it.

This is very sad, though I still can see your portfolio online.
Did you further contacted shutterstock regarding it? or just let it go.

Selling a lot of images for $2.23 today. Hope they continue for a while 
great and congratulations, it seems there is one buyer who is very interested in your portfolio and not mine.

How do you make 38 cents per sale when your total is at $20? Something looks wrong here...
Even I was thinking the same.

Is there any good budget camera which shoots 4k in slow motion? Maybe 90-250 fps should do.

the team replies that yes he can use it as a logo but in that case he need to do a buy-out purchase and the design will be removed from all the microstock channels and will sold to you with all the complete rights.
Now the price for that license was ranging from 5k-10k (I don't remember exactly) and a good percentage was to be given to the contributor.
That won't work unless the design has never, ever been sold elsewhere. You can't negate the right other people who have bought the image have to continue using it forever in accordance with the terms of their license. That might very well lead to a direct conflict between the new "owner' of the image, who wants it exclusively, and others who own the right to use it regardless. Definitely not worth 5-10k to have such limited ownership and to buy a potential problem.
Yes, this was the first question which came to my mind, but the client said its true (who knows) One cannot simply use it as a trademark, but remember there was a istock-twitter deal for new twitter logo which was purchased at a penny cost.

That's weird, there's a lot of vectors in database, like a logo? Why would then someone create vector-logo if those are not allowed to be used as logo?
This is not weird. You are correct that with your point that why would someone create vector logo when they are not allowed to use it. But actually they are. Around a year back one of my client told about a scene which happened with shutterstock. The scene happened to be like this, the client wanted to use any design as a logo so he contacted the shutterstock team for the license clarification. In which the team replies that yes he can use it as a logo but in that case he need to do a buy-out purchase and the design will be removed from all the microstock channels and will sold to you with all the complete rights. Now the price for that license was ranging from 5k-10k (I don't remember exactly) and a good percentage was to be given to the contributor.

Envato is worst for vectors.
As Mir said, you sshould save one high resolution jpg, maybe at 5000x5000 and use it for all the agencies.

getting great sales. Whatever they did with the search seems to work, they are giving a tough competition to fotolia.

I don't plan to stop uploading.
I just wanted to hear other opinions on this because I had a bad feeling about it.
You all have good points.
Same happened with fotolia too. I complained about it but nothing worked. The same scenario still goes.

Yes, they have pretty decent royalty option.
I really wish they'd marketed the product properly.

Do you get any sales at SF, is it really worth continuing?

Not that many compared to the big portfolios. They are 16 files, but literally all of the Christmas images bought at once for the lowest price of course. There are some that are similar too.
Mir, I am 100% sure that there is a buyer who is using the downloaded file at illegal websites. I have also faced same issue and posted here. http://www.microstockgroup.com/shutterstock-com/something-fishy/

nope, my new ones are all showing but they might as well be gone -since few new images are selling.... 
something weird is happening here, page 1 in newest first shows 11 images while all other pages shows 100 images
824
« on: November 16, 2016, 08:35 »
I see very less images on newest first list, while the popular section shows complete portfolio.
Is anyone else facing it?
