"We will delete all your images and your account at the end of a year. If you want to delete your images right now, you can do it yourself."

As above - I would, if I could...

Can anyone of you try to delete images from Ezmediart? Can you guys try if it works for you?

As it stated on the bottom of "My Publications" page - To delete approved submission change Status to Pending (Edit > Change). It works.

Just wondering, what was the criteria for your 'test', if I may ask.

Thx

The criteria is quite simple. If it works, means I get sales, I stay, if not: I leave.

My last upload October 28 and it's still in pending status today December 2, more than a month. Quite annoying. The same was when I uploaded bunch of Halloween videos more than a month before Halloween and got them submitted after Halloween, which is useless now for another year.

How did you get $300 not paid? Usual threshold is around $50.

Easy: I requested payout for example several month ago, but the request simply has not been processed.
So you had to request the payout? That's not how most of stock media markets work, as far as I know. I wouldn't even sign up there in the first place. BTW this whole Revostock story sounds fishy to me with that statement and the link to the comedy video as a prove.

EZ?
quite new, but I usually test each and everyone.

Thanks for sharing, good to know.

What if it's just a part of composition?

Almost the same story, I'm testing EZ as well, 21 sales by far.

Restrictions for exclusive contributors on iStock: "Artist may not sell anywhere else including the artist's own site", "Rejected files may not be sold elsewhere". 22-45%.
WOW. I mean, really?

Hmm..., Ariene, I've looked at your portfolio there and I gotta say your prices are way to high, I don't think that someone would pay $85.00 (standard) and $340.00 (extended) for 'Beige canvas textured cloth', for example. I have some pictures there, 21 sales. I'm not very high level photographer, but I believe not much worse than you, and my prices way lower. Just saying, it's not of my business, of course.

KOZZI... even the name sounds fishy.

California coast seems like nice place for real estate photography, not like my place unfortunately :)

The numbers don't reflect the sales, but quality.
