iStockPhoto.com / How much do you like Istockphoto?

I am not member of istockphoto and I don't plan to become one either. But, considering some words I saw here and there I have very justified reasons to suspect that istockphoto contributors are not very pleased with their administration as well with policies.
So, I'd like to see if I am right or wrong about my suspicion... I know that many of people who have to say anything will stay silent because they are afraid of istock administators wraith. Maybe you who are customers as well you who got bullied there have something to say? Maybe someone isn't afraid?

iStockPhoto.com / Istock guarantee?

Thus I am not contributor on Istockphoto or even any other micro, I've heard some designers complaining about there are many copies of works of independent authors from other sites on istock. Members of istock use other agencies to get inspired with their works and then make great money due to that.

Lately I've read some post from Akaiser who was falsely accused for 'abusive inspiration' (whatever that may mean) with comparing two similar, but not as close similar images to get such sanctions as disabling them. I am sure there are some other authors who suffer because of such twisted policy on istock.

Thank God that I am on macro agencies where this stupidity isn't happening!
