Still no word from DP about my blocked my account -- and that includes whatever earnings I had there since my last withdrawal.

Sure. Their payout threshold is low enough that I withdrew some of my earnings early, before they locked my account and pulled my portfolio several weeks later with no way to get to the rest of my earnings.

Still not a peep from DepositPhotos.

... DepositPhotos is out of Florida....
got ya ;)

I suppose the Florida connection should have been enough of a red flag. Glad I let their people handle getting the photos online instead of having wasted my own time.

I just checked, and I can't find any of my photos on sale. DepositPhotos is out of Florida last I checked, though it's true I don't know whether any Russian holidays might affect staff there.

I already contacted them, yeah. I haven't had any response after two days, which makes me a bit concerned.

I sent Depositphotos my portfolio of ~1600 images via their "High volume" contributor service. A few days ago, I tried logging in to check my earnings (I'd already received one payout, after I got 3 high value sales within days of the first images going online). I immediately got the error that my account has been "blocked" and to contact support. I did, marking the request "high" priority.

That was Thursday... no reply since, and my account is still blocked!

Has this happened to anyone else? What was the cause?

I have 666 images online and it's only two days until the apocalypse!  ;D

Fortunately they approved some more yesterday so I should be safe. ;)

Anyone else have any weird coincidence stories?

Is there anything I can do to speed up the time it takes to get search results? Use a specific web browser...?

Because I value my time? Better to spend two hours to make $100 a month than a week to achieve the same result.

(There was a discussion on here years ago about the effectively hourly wage people got, and I seem to remember many microstockers actually making less than minimum wage...)

Thanks! If I may ask, how many images do you have with them to get those earnings?

Assuming you've got a few thousand images with captions and keywords in the metadata ready to go...

Who makes it really fast and easy to upload images?

(I've heard CanStockPhoto is pretty good... iStock obviously is pretty bad.)

Last I checked Alamy doesn't do RF editorial... if you don't have model releases, the images must be RM.
