Always loved your work - too good for Shutterstock and the dimes they now pay. I recently had to contact support for AI rejections (I don't and never will use AI to create photos). I won't say I was successful but they were responsive and sorta helpful, I got a case number to add to uploads - but apparently no one looks at that on the review end. They even offered to escalate the issue up the ranks but I told them to forget it it wasn't worth my time. Don't know your contact method but I used [email protected] Good Luck Steve

I dont use Imstocker, but I think there is something not working right with the SS uploader today. Give it a day and try again.

I got a reply from Yay. They claim a software glitch and are working to get all images from accounts that are opted out of the partner program removed from pngtree.
Let you know if and when they do.

I just looked and many of my images are there. It appears they come from Yay.
I closed my account at Yay so the shouldn't have my images I will have to tackle this.

I successfully downloaded mine. Seems correct.
May I ask if you used your Adobe ID to retrieve your info (I used my Adobe ID and was not successful as noted above)?
Yes used my adobe ID.

I got 5 emails from them each with about 50 images listed. The vast majority are images of beer or wine and marked as sexual content. Its fine with me to not show those to the education users, but dont mark them as sexual, and claim Im in some sort of policy violation. Another outstanding example of how AI is improving our lives.

The new grid favoring vertical images messes up the look if you have horizontal, they get cropped just looks strange. But they dont care so I wouldnt expect it to revert back. Its about catering to video.

In Sept of this year I had an editorial photo sale of $847, so did a friend of mine, and from what I have heard so did several other photographers. Previous to that (a few years ago) I had in one month, 6 photo sales at $230 each.

I found a number of my images in his account. I sent a DMCA takedown to Freepix yesterday and got a reply that my images were removed and his account was blocked immediately.
Just checked and it's still there.
Update the account has been deleted.

I just had an interesting experience when submitting images. After clicking submit I got the verify box with 'pick all the images with cats'. Did that & then it went to another page where it asked me to 'describe the above image' Minimum 5 words required. Is this being used to help train their AI? Besides being a pain in the a$$ requiring another step - I do not want to help with their AI training in any way. Don't think I will be filling in anything useful going forward.
Not AI training, it's to stop the Bots. The click the cats has been going on for months.
Really, a second form seems overkill

No problem viewing mine, but why can't I download it? My only option is too take a screen shot for a copy.

Check for your material here: https://www.agefotostock.com/age/en/
I just found that if you click on Buy Now on your Images at AgePhotoStock you get a messages saying it isn't available.

no way to poison images at agencies
Really, why? Will they sue us? lol
i think it's not even possible to detect cloaking / poisoning on an image
I think what he means is that you can't poison images you already have on the agencies. You'd have to delete and re-upload. Not practical.

As shady as the agencies have been with us over the years - there is no transparency with any of them. We have to trust that they are reporting every single transaction and at the right amount and percentage. There is no recourse to challenge their books, they change the rules at their whim. Frankly I wonder if the op-out button does nothing more than opt us out of getting paid for the use of our images not the actual use of them.

only rejection i received recently was 'similar content'
Was it an editorial image? I recently had an editorial rejected with that reason.

Photoshop file info function keeps all keywords in the order you input. I used to use Bridge for Metadata but got fed up with Bridge sorting everything alphabetically which then made it a pain to upload to Adobe. Now I use the file info function in photoshop, which includes the ability to save a template which can be applied to all photos in a series. Easy.
I always keyword in Bridge and it never changes my order.
