I also sold 23 vertical videos on istock in 1 day. I would have been excited if it was before, but now I feel like these sales are from China and I will earn 0.03 per video.


Shutterstock sales are going pretty well in June. RPD was $0.58.

Adobe sales numbers are down but there were a few high-earning sales. I think it will be a better month than the previous months when we get paid for free content towards the end of the month.

$69.08 in participant funds was transferred to my account. I have both a photo and video portfolio. I don't know which one they deposited participant funds for.

They were sending our payments regularly between the 15th and 18th of each month. The February payment has not been sent yet. The information section says "Upcoming". There is also a warning saying "Final amount may vary due to payment processor fees". My payment method is Payoneer.

Is there anyone else who has not received their payment this month like me or is there a problem with my account?

I think the reason we see so little AI content in Turkey is that Adobe, which has the most AI content, does not sell to Turkish customers.

For this reason, almost all of the stock images used are licensed through Shutterstock, Istock and GettyImages. Since there is no AI content in them, we do not come across them either.

However, I have been looking at AI images related to Turkey for the last 2 hours. Most of them are not prepared by Turkish users, but by citizens of other countries. Especially in images related to tourism and travel, they have had the AI ​​create touristic places with high sales potential by entering words. But maybe they prepared images of places they have never seen, so they sent them without realizing that they were misleading. I am sure that the people who examined them accepted them because they did not know that they were misleading.

As Ramadan approaches, it seems that we will see mosques with missing or extra minarets in many images. Any user can understand a kangaroo with 6 legs, but they will not pay as much attention to Hagia Sophia with 3 minarets instead of 4 as a kangaroo.

Or those who choose Bodrum from Turkey for their summer vacation will think "Why isn't it like the Game of Thrones castle in Adobe" when they see the real Bodrum Castle.

Adobe does not only sell stock images, videos, etc. in Turkey. Apart from that, we buy Adobe programs under license.

How will misleading content in the Adobe library be removed? According to the examples given, everyone is knowledgeable about their own region.

I searched for "Istanbul" as artificial intelligence content in the Adobe library. I know very well because I live there. 85% of the images on the first page are misleading. How can an employee working at Adobe and living in another country know this?

Or how can I know whether the image about "Hamburg", which I have never been to, is misleading?

Actually, I wonder where exactly artificial intelligence images are used. Artificial intelligence images are definitely not used in magazines, newspapers, press and publishing websites in Turkey. It was used in the news of major newspapers a few times in the beginning. However, since the use of models that did not look like Turks in a news about Turkish Retirees was found quite ridiculous, the content of the news was changed immediately.

I am sure that the customer knows what kind of image they want. It is very good to separate Real Photo and AI in searches. But the selection tool could be in an easier place. It could be in the selection in the upper left corner.

(By the way, we can participate from Turkey, but Adobe is closed to Turkish customers. We can check our portfolio by changing the "tr" extension in the internet address bar to "fr". That's why the first page I see and the first pages you see may be different.)

I still can't understand the pond5 pricing system. One of the last 2 videos sold was 4k, the other was HD.

The price I found appropriate for 4K was $50. But it was sold for $16. I was also paid a $6.40 commission. For HD video, I set the price I found appropriate as $25. It was sold for $22.50. And I was paid a $8.97 commission.

In my participant portal, I set the video price as $50, but if I want to buy it, it appears as $16. So why do I set my own prices for videos?

I set a price of $89 for 4k and $49 for HD for all the videos I recently uploaded. But on the video purchase screen, it appears as $60 for 4K and $48 for HD.


I am a participant from Turkey. And I open the purchase screen with a Turkish IP. Could it be that the purchase prices change automatically depending on the country?


A city under the stars   HD   $22.42   Global Market Earnings   $22.42   $8.97

By the way, my payment has not been sent yet. Although it is written on their website that after the payment limit is exceeded, the payment is made until the 17th of the following month, the payment was not sent on November 17th and December 17th. I sent an e-mail to 123rf website stating that the payment was not made, but no one is replying. (By the way, I still haven't deleted my images. I am thinking of deleting them after receiving my payment)

Has anyone received payment in November or December?

Of the 2 videos I uploaded last night, 1 was accepted today. The other is waiting for review. Since they have a similar concept (sunset timelapse from different locations), the description and tags are the same. Both are horizontal videos. (Vertical videos are reviewed faster)

Of the 4 videos I previously submitted, 2 were reviewed and accepted in 2 days. The other 2 were accepted 1 week later. I currently have videos waiting for review for 16 days and photos waiting for 30 days. None of them are AI.

You get great statistics across all agencies that are connected to their system and can see nice stats for individual files.

I'll look into it. Thank you.

I think this late acceptance period worked for Shutterstock and iStock. While the earnings were always close, Adobe fell behind the other two agencies by 1/4 in August. (A few extended license sales over $50 may also have been effective. Adobe only had one sale for $26.40).
But while all sales related to the period were frequent in other agencies, Adobe is still waiting for review.
I upload regular content every day. Half of the content I uploaded 1 month ago was accepted, the other half is waiting. Some of the content I uploaded last week was accepted, the other is waiting. " If I had worked only with Adobe, I would have had a hard time. ) . (It is the first time that istock is accepted late. Editorial content is reviewed in 2 days)

(Number of pending files: 283. All real photos).

There is a warning in the video submission requirements that says "Duration needs to be at least 5 seconds and not exceed 60 seconds."

How can they accept a 3-second video?

The moderators accept videos under 5 seconds and from my observations a short time later the videos get deleted.

In the example given above, all of the videos in the portfolio of the person are 3 seconds long, across 86 pages. very interesting

My English is not good enough. So I hope I misunderstood.

Everyone shares their own portfolio pages here. If two people argue about a different topic, and one opens a fake account and buys 50 images from the other's account with his own credit card, is the other's account closed?
