Hello friends,

I am trying to invite a friend to become a contributor at SS.

I found the referral link is like this :
https://submit.shutterstock.com/?ref=xxxxxxx

but when I copy and paste this to the browser (after log out of my account), the "ref" part disappear , and just this URL is there :
https://submit.shutterstock.com/

please advise

Hello,
I finally have reached Level 3 at Shutterstock
I passed 3k$ , I was expecting commission to upgrade automatically .
for example : subscription image to be $0.36 instead of $0.33
but they are still the old amount ?
my question , is it time matter , and this will be fixed ?

Also I don't know does the next level calculated by total lifetime earnings (including videos) ??
or only photos & illustrations ??

in this case , I didn't reach 3k$ yet !
please advice

Hello,
It's first time for me to submit editorial vector.
I have read the rules. and I thought it's simple as usual, but my editorial vector is rejected for 3 times now
My vector is collection of social icons (facebook , twitter, linkedin, googlePlus , etc. )

First  Time :
Editorial Vector / Illustration Requirements -- Image does not meet our requirements for editorial vector/illustration submissions.
Intellectual Property -- Image potentially infringes on another party�€™s intellectual property rights (e.g., someone else�€™s artwork is visible in the image or an object's design is protected by copyright).

* this time i reviewd  the editorial submission  rules sand I  found out that I forgot to add �illustrative editorial� in  the keywordds

Second Time :
Intellectual Property -- Image potentially infringes on another party�€™s intellectual property rights (e.g., someone else�€™s artwork is visible in the image or an object's design is protected by copyright).
* I really not sure what was the wrong , but I decided to  re-submit it with very carful

Third Time :
Non-Licensable Content -- Due to legal compliance restrictions, we cannot license this content in our collection.
* I really don't understand what is that . I've searched about this rejection reason but I didn't find anything !

Please  advice

Hello,
I am from Egypt , and currently get my payments from SS through PayPal.
The problem that I can't convert PayPal balance into cash in Egypt.
Now I just buy anything from Internet with it.

I am asking about the other payment method : check by postal mail.
If any one has experience with this , specially in Not US Country
How long it takes to receive your check by mail . and after receiving it , should I go to any bank in my country or what ?
and is there a lot of charges to collect the check amount in cash ??

Thanks in advance

Hello All,

In fact I don't have good experience with licence issues.

I have read some articles , and I understand now what's difference between RF and RM

However all my previous uploads in many agencies was only RF

My question now , Can I sell photos as RM in Alamy for example , while I am selling them as RF in other agencies ?

Thanks in advance

Hello All,
It's really good feeling to share my experience with you.
this group was really helpful for me to guide me which agencies to focus on
I wish my poll submission will be helpful for others too
Thanks a lot

I uploaded only 10 photos on Alamy , just to test the results , and for few months there was no sales.
Then few days ago , I found 1 sale for 35$ , and my commission is 50%
This is really good price for 1 sale comparing to SS , and other microstock sites.
this really encourage me to give more time to Alamy.

Hello All,

My sales with SS was increased this month and it was working very well with me , then suddenly , yesterday and today , sales was stopped completely !

Is it just an accident ?

or may be there is something wrong ?

please advice
