From my point of view something at least strange is going on... I'm very disappointed and I've lost interest for some time to upload pictures. Plus I have pictures that have been on pending for more than 9 ( nine) months... This industry is definitely not going in a positive direction. At least not in my case.

I received it too. I tried to use the code but, of course, I was told it had already been used. So it's most likely a mistake.

I come back to the same post to warn you. Again I had such sales ("distribution") even though I have been out since 2022.

I opted out for distribution sales a long time ago but I see these kinds of pathetic sales again.  When I asked them (again) why they were still included they replied that it was probably "an error". Who believes them anymore! Hi Sebastian, My colleague Sabine in our Distribution Team updated me about some distribution sales in your Alamy account which shouldnt have happened. Im very sorry about this, I believe there was a technical issue with our API which meant that these images became available to a distribution partner. By way of apology, we would be willing to apply 100% on these distribution sales, so well ask our finance team to recalculate and credit you for these sales. Thanks, ChantelleAnd no, I didn't get that 100%. It's already been a month. I had the same situation before.. They have become some downright embarrassing companies.

Cobalt, You did a great job, congratulations!  Can I ask you with what platforms you generate those AI videos? Thanks!

Thank you so much Cobalt and Wilm. I think I will try in the first phase to make a new base of white isolated objects. When I started last year with AI, everything was going well. But now sales have dropped drastically. Anyway, my sales are down on pretty much all my sites. Lately I've been concentrating more on AI. Thanks again for your suggestions!!!

Very disappointed...
13.10.2023 - 9.697 files (this week position) 2.890 / (life time position) 11.500 13.10.2024 - 11.817 files (this week position) 16.350 / (life time position) 10.200
And sales have also fallen continuously.

sorry to see that its happening to you. Is it possible that you had several bestsellers that were featured somewhere and then taken down, to be replaced with newer content?
I have no idea what is happening But I can definitely say that sales have dropped drastically.

That is a normal fluctuation. To get a really stable rank you need a much larger port with very varied content and a much higher base download level.
Hi Cobalt, I have never had such fluctuations.

I don't understand what is going on... 18.850...

That is indeed a very drastic drop. And you were uploading.
Has your niche been flooded with copycat files?
Or have your bestseller files many direct copies?
Hi Cobalt Good question. I'll do a little research and see what I find. What I can say is that a few months ago I found many stolen pictures of mine. I reported those accounts and they were shut down. I don't understand why Adobe doesn't check to see if the same image has been uploaded by someone else. Anyway, the point is that we have to be very vigilant.

I got the same email yesterday. An asset was removed. Is it me or is Adobe (also) really starting to become more and more a non-transparent company?

How's everyone else's week going?
My weekly ranking is not too bad but my sales numbers are way down this week.
Also just had an entire day (>24 hr) without one sale on Adobe Stock. I can't remember how long it's been when I last had a day without a sale on a week day.
In my case sales are also very poor, no matter how many pictures I upload or not. My rank has dropped a lot in the last weeks.

this month so far on Adobe I have earned 650% more than on SS,but I haven't uploaded to SS since September 2023.
The Shutterstock is an embarrassment continues. I've earned 2.6 times in just 5 hours on Adobe Stock than I have in 10 days on Shutterstock.
Something similar in my case as well, even though sales at AS have dropped drastically in the last two months.

I too have a very sharp drop in rank. I don't know what's going on...

In my case, even though I kept uploading new images (mostly AI) the rank went down dramatically. What's more interesting is that new images (uploaded more than two months ago) are not selling at all. I see this as Adobe going on a downward trend.

Not only rank but also sales have dropped sharply in recent weeks. Maybe just in my case... I don't know...

Hi,
I don't know what happened but in the last 10 - 14 days sales have dropped drastically. Is it just me? And my rank has fallen sharply..

I don't see that. How many photos do you have? Are your bestsellers seasonal? Maybe there are massive amount of AI food photos added to Adobe Stock recently. I was generating a few food photos too although not approved yet.
I have more than 10k of which about 4k are AI. It's very strange because sales have dropped sharply, as if someone "put me on pause"... I will try to generate new content and not food and see what happens. I don't have many seasonal images. Thanks anyway for your reply.

On a simple search I found three thieves using my pictures on Adobe Stock. Two of them have already been blocked. That's right, it's not a complicated process, I don't understand why these companies don't do the process automatically during reviews.

Hi,
I also have the same problem now, two subscriptions. This is the answer that I received it from the Adobe support:
I would like to inform you that would not be possible. The activation code you received is for a different Photography plan which will expire in one year
While the plan you had active is to paid monthly was a monthly plan hence extension is not possible that is why a new plan was added
So my advice is to activate the code on the last day of your current subscription.
