Friend of mine in her 50s decided to take art classes from Stanford, started to paint and now has several exhibitions and galleries rep her. She is an amazing salesman. My guess she makes $20k per year from oil paintings.

What is your friend hourly rate excluding expenses?

Sliced vegetables, all the way, all day, every day!

Thank you for reminder. Let me shoot a few more of sliced vegetables!

Is $2-$3/hr a good rate for you?

but I will be getting this money forever

strange is that now that you have decided to start with AI I have decided to stop with AI! :D

 I am more focused on doubling my "real" video library by the end of the month,and in general I'm more focused on "real" content.

I'm kind of bored with "real" content and want to try something new.

5) Practice counting the number of fingers

I plan to avoid fingers :)

I finally decided to start with AI Generated images. I read a few articles, watch a few video and so far the process looks simple

1) Generate image with Midjourney. It look like it's the best generator now
2) Upscale with Topaz Gigapixel AI or Topaz Photo AI. Which one is better?
3) Create description, upload
4) Profit!

What I'm missing?

As for Shutterstock in January 2024 compared to January 2023. I'm receiving half the amount of money despite having the same number of downloads.

it took 10 years to get 6,500 photos on Adobe Stock, but took only 3 months to add 3,000 AI generated photos on Adobe Stock

I'm sure you spend less time and money on generating AI photos than the real life photos

It seems like sales will raise the search rank and produce more sales.

Once I uploaded a much better version of my bestseller photo, but people keep buying the same old photo. Most likely the new photo is not showing anywhere, because of low rank

Amazing. What do they do with uploaded photos?

anyway. I'm getting "Im sorry, but I cannot provide a response to your request as I do not have access to the image you are referring to. Please provide more information or context about the image you are referring to."

One more "new file" is sold on SS. Both recent sales are unique. There's nothing similar on SS :)

Most important: do something that doesn't exist.

but I want to upload flowers photos!

I tried ChatGPT 3.5 free for keyboarding based on the image description, but it produces a lot of garbage. It takes a lot of time to clean up.

"Submitted 19 days ago" not editorial photos

What the point for buyer to pay $174 for photo on SS, when they can buy it for 10 cents?

18
Improving my shooting and editing skills was a good part.

20
I speculate that Shutterstock has observed a trend where the new contributors are quickly losing their enthusiasm while waiting for $35 and disappearing

21
$10/month to keep my photos on SS? I make more money on SS in a month, so it's not a big deal for me, but it would weed out a smaller contributors.

I forgot to mention that I have 2 times more photos on SS than on Adobe

23
Exactly. SS once didnt accept photos of wild animals, because of commercial property!

General Stock Discussion / SS vs Adobe performance
« on: July 14, 2023, 16:38 »
It's a first time for me that I made more money on Adobe than on SS during first 15 days of months. Adobe usually lead during a first few days of a month, but today is July 14, and Adobe still ahead.

The Microstock Agencies could start pruning the unused content: If you photo was not sold during last year, it will be deleted.
