I was thinking of uploading paid vectors to Freepik, given the misery that Shutterstock pays do you recommend doing it?
I recently read the article on Steven Heap blog, I'm undecided whether to do it

They probably wont do anything unless Disney or whoever get in touch. AS is truly awful with this sort of thing.

Adobe accepts illustrative editorial, The problem is that they sell vectors not made by them but taken from other sites

example:
https://stock.adobe.com/it/images/vinnytsia-ukraine-june-10-2022-donald-duck-character-vector-illustration-isolated-on-white-background/510064472?prev_url=detail
https://it.vectorhq.com/vector/donald-duck-vector-121355

Yes I know, the issue isnt the unreleased property/ people or trademarks. The issue is that these contributors are just stealing and licensing other peoples copyright work. For example a photo taken by me with unreleased logos and people is fine as editorial. Me downloading the photos from the Times news website front page and licensing them as editorial as if I own the copyright is not. That is what these people are doing.


I fully understand your reasoning, and I agree with it, But there are also illustrative editorial that follow the rules, (to recreate this mockup there is a lot of work behind it) example:

But Mariie was still approved this file today:

I don't understand why Adobe accepts this

I started working in microstock in 2010, after 6 months I was earning a normal European salary (especially with shutterstock), I remained in this world for a year and a half. Then I had an offer as an office job and I gave up the microstock, to have greater financial security, no longer loading over the years the sales have collapsed. With the covid19 I lost my job. Since December 2021 I have resumed with microstock.

In adobe in this year I have uploaded 512 images, have received at least one download 225 images, in total they have been sold for 2841 times. I don't have these numbers on other sites.

I still don't get a normal European salary, but thanks to Adobestock I can keep going.

I believe that if you are "hungry" and put a lot of effort, the results will come. Good luck!

Today, among the vector artists recommended (Monster_Design) on the adobe site, I find this portfolio full of editorial vectors clearly taken from other sites, but can it be done?

Small example:



This makes it easy to make money  >:(

another anomaly - if you upload a vector editorial trademark (once approved) in the search engine of the site, the image corresponding to that trademark does not appear, as if deleting the keywords with the brand name. I got confirmation using https://imstocker.com/ What sense to accept editorial vector logos if they then delete the keywords with the brand name, how do buyers find these images
