CanStockPhoto.com / CanStock down at the moment?
« on: September 05, 2017, 05:20 »
Canstock is unattainable at the moment. Down for maintenance?

Got a mail from Shutterstock. Shutterstock prompts me to reset the password? Could it be a phishing mail?

It seems to me that Fotolia/Adobe Stock does not accept Universal MR anymore! How are your experiences?

Image Sleuth / More stolen pictures
« on: September 19, 2016, 14:09 »
Found by chance this blog with stolen photos and graphics, almost all with watermarks of Shutterstock. https://kunaiyondaime.wordpress.com/category/uncategorized/

Panthermedia.net / Panthermedia - bad news
« on: July 14, 2016, 10:06 »
To all Panthermedia-contributors: PM pulls a portion of the revenue back. Apparently there were problems with a sale partner. Check your sales summary for 2015 and 2016!  :-\

Each stock photographer knows the life cycle of a photo. The sales may initially be strong and then gradually become less and less. So I was surprised, when some of my older photos have started a new life cycle in recent months. It is as if I have re-uploaded these pictures. And if I look back, I also have a few pictures that sell consistently, it means, these images have no cyclic period at all. What are youre expierences?

Bigstock.com / Changes on BigStock
« on: May 09, 2016, 12:37 »
Has anyone read this here: "A second change that will be implemented is the site will no longer accept PDF files for releases, credentials or reference images. PDF files that are already saved to your account will be rejected during the review process when added to new submissions. You will need to re-upload all existing PDF files as JPG format." ?

General - Top Sites / Fotolia vs. Shutterstock in 2016
« on: January 25, 2016, 17:19 »
For the first time increase my sales on Fotolia faster than on Shutterstock. The times could change. Sure, I can't still make any prognosis. And I am not a professional image producer. But over the years Shutterstock was the engine of my income from photography. Maybe we will see a change at the top?

Microstock News / Zoonar with new, fresh design
« on: December 07, 2015, 05:21 »
I like the new design of Zoonar and I wish, it should run well for Zoonar. From time to time I achieve very good sales there.

Mostphotos.com / Better keywording in Swedish?
« on: February 22, 2015, 02:30 »
When I look at the sales at Mostphotos I see almost only sold pictures with Swedish keywords. What do you thoink, it's better to change from English to Swedish? Does anyone here from Scandinavia have experiences or observed a relation between the language of keywords and sales?

This post is aimed particularly at European, non-English speaking providers. Fotolia was particularly strong in the German-speaking parts of Europe. Therefore a lot of contributors, especially, of course, from Germany, Austria and Switzerland, used to have German keywords. Do you think the weight will shift now? Is it better to change from German keywords to keywording in English? What are your thoughts about this particular problem?

Mostphotos.com / MostPhotos - something seems to be wrong
« on: May 03, 2014, 12:48 »
MP shows no new uploads nor any changes for three days now. Does anyone have any information if there's something wrong?

Adobe Stock / Fotolia - higher prices
« on: February 18, 2014, 18:17 »
I am wondering, has no one noticed that Fotolia has increased the prices? Starting with the Silver level and above. Hopefully it is not a fault?

Through a hint of a photographer I found my entire Depositphotos port on the German Agency Shotshop. Shotshop seems to be a reseller of DP. All who offer directly to Shotshop have now often the same images twice at Shotshop. The problem is - they are also available at different prices! If I would buy a photo from the Depositphotos portfolio in XLLarge-VP at ShotShop, I would pay 19,90 . Don't know, what earnings you get from DP, for me it's mostly cent amounts or sometimes 2, xx dollars. The profit margin of DP must be better than margins of Istock. And there is no opt out option! For me this is a reason to cancel both DP and Shotshop.

Microstock Services / Picworkflow - proof for Tax Office needs
« on: August 11, 2013, 16:46 »
Because Bobbigmac checks in here from time to time: Will it ever be possible to receive an invoice from Picworkflow if I buy credits? My tax office in Germany is not happy, when I say I paid xx euros for keyword and other services, but I can not prove it. An Email would suffice as bill. Best regards, rde-orm
