We had to further advance the planned alpha release date
Seems it won't get out until May.

Are you still on track for a May alpha release?

at least they try to be transparent.

There's no doubt about that

No one here can answer your question, you will have to contact them. They usually get back to you quickly but all the big shots are in Las Vegas for Photoshop World so it might take longer -

We'll be in Las Vegas for the annual Photoshop World Conference and Expo so you can join us there for a chance to learn more about our stock image community and business opportunities. We'll also be running a special lucky promotion offering 21 free stock images. More details on the dates and location here

Stay tuned on Twitter (@Dreamstime) and Facebook as our team will keep you up to date with the latest Photoshop news straight from the conference.

To schedule appointments with our representatives in Las Vegas, please contact our support service.

The Photoshop Las Vegas thing starts on September 5th.

My best selling photograph is a black and white image from New York. It didn't look that good in colour. There are images which just stand out if they are in black and white, but it has to done very carefully - not just converting the image to monochrome.

Only FTP uploading works.

What do you mean only FTP uploading works? The Java uploader works fine on my end.

With Instacanv.as you get 20 % commission of a sale.

Are there any plans for launching a Mac version of the software anytime soon?

I ended it myself but it took 30 days and the 30 days have passed. But If I read id again I understand how you see it haha.

But does anyone experienced opting in again?

I opted in again after few months of being non-exclusive.

I took the same step last year around September. I dropped Dreamstime's exclusivity and started to upload in SS and IS. I had ~ 250 images in my portfolio at that time. Only around 10 % of them were accepted in Shutterstock and iStock. The amount of money I earned for the next several months.. well, you can guess. I was making around $200/month as exclusive at Dreamstime, so I kind of had some expectations, obviously wrong ones. I decided to go back as an exclusive at DT. And I don't regret it. It seems that the stuff I upload fits this agency only.

10% is not very much. I am hoping for a minimum of 50%. How do you get $200/ month with only 250 images? You only have about 1380 sales since 2009. That would be an average of $75 if I calculate that correct? My experience is that 500 sales is about $1000. Anyway... I hope my experience is difference and I am making the right decision. If not I will go back being exclusive at Dreamstime. Thanks for your reply! 

I signed up in 2009, but started uploading in the late 2010. The average is $150, but there are months I'm hitting $200+.

Does someone here remember ALTphotos.com? It suddenly disappeared around two years ago and since then there is no info of what happened to the website. I really miss it, it was a great source of inspiration and an amazing photography community.

Is there a way to delete the database and create a new one? I tried to uninstall the application and everything but couldn't find a way.

Grigor, this depends on the site. On iStockphoto it should disappear from the list of files. On other sites it still will be in database. Right now only way is to delete the database and fetch statistics again. In future it would be good idea to hide deleted pictures on other sites as well. But I don't know if this wold be desired behavior for most of the users.

Thanks for the tip! Maybe you can add 'hide deleted photos' as an option so that everyone can choose whether to see them or hide them.

I have a question : When we delete/disable an image from a stock site does the image stay forever in Microstock Analytics database?

Very little photography knowledge is needed

I can't stop looking at this!

Look at the bottom of the first page of the flyer : http://www.arcurs.com/wp-content/uploads/Become-a-Photographer.pdf

"NO PHOTOGRAPHY BACKGROUND IS REQUIRED!"

This doesn't seem serious at all.. at least for me.

There is a scheduled maintenance running right now. It was on their news.

I don't get pissed off - I usually just move on. 

The one that made me scratch my head though was a couple of months ago I had an image refused because the title to the image submitted was in all caps...and then I looked around on the website and every image at DT has a title in all caps.

I still can't figure that one out. 

You are probably looking at the thumbnails where titles are all in capital letters.

I can't manage to log in.. anyone else?

Also portfolios seem to be empty
