the royalty cut is quite severe when they also cut the selling price, even without the price cut, it would already have a big impact. i would not be surprised to see a 50-75% CUT on our ROYALTY

they all have different terms, so no one can answer that question for you without knowing your needs, why dont you go and check the agencies yourself?

jonbul, i never signed up for 25 cent downloads, i signed up for 20 cent downloads and 20 dollar els, but that is not the point either, we just got a price cut from an agency that hadnt cut royalties before (except referrals), and you are defending it because we accept 25 cent downloads in the first place. noticing you are talking about 33 cent makes me believe you havent been in the game longer than a year.

jonbull you are talking nonsense, but following your logic, why do we have to accept a paycut of 26 subs per EL? i cant even phantom why you would defend the agency over this. your in the wrong playground for that.

if they were getting scarse then surely raising  the usage limit to 500k for standard licences didnt help

Good Luck.

your a front runner when it comes to complaining about ss and taking action, here is action, and you wish them good luck instead of joining? my my

the app is fine, its just the website, not to worry

889
so you actually agree with me then great

zero talent, it has been proven over and over that the most sold photo is not the most popular photo ss is showing in the results. my most sold photos are not even near the position they should be at. but that was not the point, the point was, how do you know if you got the best image? answer, you dont, unless you wade through 38,000 photos.

891
zero talent, tell me, how do you determine if you have the best image without checking all, lets say, 38,000 results for diversity in the office? are you going to check all 38,000 results?

i actually like this image on page 200 better than the image on page 1, both submitted roughly in the same period

page 200


page 1


were going off topic, apologies

892
out of 70 million images they will never know if they got the best image or not. if they search and get 200 pages of images and they wont know if the first 10 pages are newbiew photos or not. they will pick the photo they like best on those 10 pages, i doubt they will look further than 2000 images.

893
ill say it again: GTFO

894
they have changed their policy for deleting images, when they announced a 100 image limit for 90 days I knew they were safeguarding themseleves for communicating bad news

895
no one said or insinuated that
Well Shutterstock and other sites seem to think so?
thats not what you said,  you said vets think they should earn more,  you did not say  agencies

897
its a disgrace

theres been more cuts,  they also cut the sods pricing and they increased sub pricing without sharing the profits and they increased standard licence print run

899
from pixart:
2 = $199 U.S.      30% x 100 = $30
5 = $$449 U.S.    30% x 89.8 = $26.94
25 = $1699 U.S.  30% x 67.96 = $20.39

if we knew what packages were bought we could calculate the impact for us and SS

considering the above:
2 ELs pay increase of 7%
5 ELs pay decrease of 3.8%
25 ELs pay decrease of 27.2%

sigh, lets hope they sold 2 EL pacakges the most, but considering they want to increase their profit, i am afraid we will see a lot of 20 dollar ELs now...
