Shutterstock.com / Single Image No Longer in Trial Mode?
« on: February 20, 2012, 20:09 »
http://www.shutterstock.com/subscribe.mhtml

Anyone noticed they changed this page recently? Im in Australia, and it shows I can now get a single image download for $19. So I am guessing the trial period where it seemed to only be parts of the US is now over?

I think they also removed the 25 image pack if I remember correctly?

New Sites - General / Zoonar - EPS Files?
« on: February 20, 2012, 17:31 »
Have recently added my port to Zoonar and so far I am happy with them, even had a nice sale already.

However, in trying to add EPS vector files the other day, the Zoonar-generated previews are horrible (all fluro colours etc). So I asked Michael from Zoonar for suggestions and got this response...

"the simple through is, that Im not really an expert for EPS files. " (think he meant 'truth', not 'through')

And thats it. That was the whole email in response to my questions (other than hello, goodbye). No help whatsoever.

So my question is, does anyone else have experience uploading EPS10 files to Zoonar, how do you do it, and can you upload your own preview image?

Thanks in advance guys.

DP, is great, Bigstock thanks to the bridge is also great. Without the bridge however you might just drown.

DepositPhotos is better for me than Bigstock, but really, 12.7 and 11.8 where they both currently sit are pretty close.

Wow, that still amazes me. I have a slightly larger port at BigStock than I do at SS (only just), but BS is lucky to earn me a few bucks a month! It's probably in my bottom 3 or 4 and has been since I joined them couple of years ago.

Its incredible really how different agencies suit different contributors work so significantly.

« on: February 20, 2012, 02:10 »
Mine is 1 EL per 330 downloads since starting couple years back. As of recent times it has improved though, so more likely these days would be about 1 per 280-300. Need to get it up around your averages dirkr!

123RF / Re: 123RF Loading Problems
« on: February 19, 2012, 19:41 »
This is weird, since I haven't had a problem connecting ok to the site for the past few days, everything loads fine. I wonder if it is localised somewhat (im downunder, in Australia)?

Veer / Re: Average subscription earnings on Veer?
« on: February 19, 2012, 17:45 »
13 subs since partway through Jan, all 0.25c except 1 for 0.28c

Not great at all, but thankfully still getting some credit sales for good amounts (Jan was great, feb slow).

957
Seriously, BigStock is above Depositphotos, Photodune, Veer!!??

This blows me away. Can this really be true?

Someone ate the CSS file...

Hmm, must be the "glitch monsters at work down in the dark internety room". I hear iStock's plague is contagious  :D

DepositPhotos / Site problem
« on: February 16, 2012, 23:00 »
Anyone else having trouble with the submit section of the site at the moment? Mine has lost all CSS formatting completely. Just text. Has been for about an hour.

Is it just me!?

960
I'm so confused by whats going on right now with the poll...

Hopefully by tomorrow it will have sorted itself all out and YayMicro will be at the top as it rightfully should be...

« on: February 16, 2012, 20:15 »
No worries dbajurin.

Sorry to hear sales are going the way of views though. FT has been so poor for me last couple of years, but only now does it seem to be picking up. Can't explain why.

962
Oops, should probably have read the whole thread a bit better!

963
Someone needs to write that script! Thats a great idea :)

Or better yet FT just not be ridiculous and lower the files in the first place...

964
Err, bug in Poll Results perhaps? Shutterstock is currently showing 100, Istock 64.9 etc etc. Biggest numbers I've ever seen!

New Sites - General / Re: Superhug sells stock images
« on: February 16, 2012, 16:30 »
Hey Superhug, Just in case you are reading here it seems my emails might have gotten eaten up again by your spam filter perhaps? I haven't had a reply again in days and days. (user: thp)

Can you take a look? Thanks!

Adobe Stock / Re: Fotolia image views
« on: February 16, 2012, 16:29 »
Views have been down for ages and threads on the Fotolia forum have attributed it to the larger image previews (apparently!). People no longer have to actually click an image to 'view' it.

However I am surprised to say sales have been up for me. Although it still massively under-performs compared to similar sized agencies.

967
Who looks at a sinking ship and thinks "that looks like a great idea, I'll hit an iceberg too"!? Can't believe 123RF have followed iStock's most hated thing - RC system.

Surely this is no time to be putting yourself into the same territory as iStock. REWARD your contributors please, don't make them turn on you.

This could be the biggest mistake 123rf will ever make.

968
I agree, this is crazy. How can you make an announcement TWICE about new changes, and then never reveal them?! Over a week late is pretty unacceptable. I love 123RF, but they need to improve their communication. I don't think I have ever received one of their emails others have talked about (other than the newsletter!).

Please give us an update guys

They've picked up slightly for me too lately. Really hoping it's a sign of good things to come.

I recently posted a Mostphotos Update on my website which outlines their plans for 2012 according to their CEO.

David can I ask - did you do anything to put yourself out there for being the feature photog? Or did they just pick you? Would love to know how some of these 'inner workings' work!

Hope it bumps up your weeks earnings anyway David!

So still no word on the new rates? Don't tell me it will be delayed again - we want to know whats going on 123rf! (not that it affects me, but still...)

Hope to hear soon

Dreamstime.com / Re: Is DT alive ?
« on: February 01, 2012, 01:03 »
Pretty poor month on DT, but then last January was the same, so hoping Feb will pick up.  However, I can confirm they are still alive as I just got a 15 Credit TIFF sale - wish there were more of those!

975
So new royalty rates come into effect today (i think!) - can't wait to see how they have implemented it.
