we're not allowed to submit ai created content to shutterstock,, but how do they recognize that if i run the image through ps and embed my own metadata?.
will they detect it and,reject it? would it cause a ban?

15. Would you be interested in a voluntary option to contribute a small portion of your Pond5 revenue to a fund that supports the next generation of young up-and-coming filmmakers? (your choice of % with a matching donation of up to 10% from Pond5) asking to donate money of my earnings to help others create (competing) films. leaves a weird taste in my mouth. let them work for it, like we all did has to be the weirdest request i have had from an agency. they really have no shame do they.?

ss for me has no rhyme or reason, from the first day of june my sales have been back to normal and then some, the number of dls is still low, but the number of ELs and big SODs have dramatically increased. i have already made what i normally would make in a normal month and we are not even half way. if this continues i will double my BME. which is just plain weird. not complaining at all, just think they must have flicked a switch again

i am afraid i wont exceed 10 downloads today. its that bad
not sure how to tackle this but i guess uploading more isnt going to help much.
the pie is shared amongst to many people, ss is doing great, but it my motivation is gone.

Adobe is the world leader in creative media-production and editing software, including Photoshop and Premiere Pro, so were thrilled to be partnering with them and creating tons of new opportunities for you, our Artists! What do these partnerships mean for you? One upload, multiple benefits By participating in the Global Partner Program, Pond5 Artists will receive royalties comparable to selling directly through our partners, while also benefiting from unique sales and marketing opportunities, premium pricing, and the ability to earn additional royalties from enhanced license sales all through one upload to Pond5.

Exposure to new buyers The Global Partner Program provides access to local expertise in markets around the world, allowing our Artists to reach exponentially more potential buyers than ever before.

anyone else seeing this?
lately i have 3 4 5 sales of the same images in a very short time, almost instantaneously
some images which never sold, sold 3 times in a minute or less
could it be that there is a bug or a change in how buyers purchases images from shutterstock that allows for a multi purchase by mistake?

i work with lightroom, dpp and photoshop and always used MS picture manager to quickly view photos at 100% because of its simple UI however, since upgrading to w10, picture manager is no longer reading the exif orientation tag correctly, basically ignoring it.
i am looking for a small, simple program with easy UI to quickly do the same as before, LR, DPP are too big and bulky for that simple task, looking at Faststone image viewer, ACDsee, irfanview, etc. which program is a good alternative and not too expensive. ive used faststone and acdsee before, and liked them, just wondering if there is something better
