Shutterstock.com / Re: Shutterstock "Contributor Fund"
« on: January 03, 2024, 07:03 »
Has anyone recently been paid from the Contributor fund? The last time I did it was May 2023. It seems strange to me that since then not a single cent! :(

I am surprised people kept thinking they would get infinite and regular payments for this. Once an AI is trained, it's trained, it doesn't need your images every month or every couple of months. And the amount of new Ai image generators developers want to create is also not infinite, so your images will only be needed when someoen wants to develope a new product - and the big players in the game like DALL-E and Midjourney just scrap google foir images to train their AI anyways and don't pay for them on microstock agencies.

Yes, I also think that AI once sucked Shutterstock and other agencies and why train again when it already has them all :(

And what about Pixabay.com, the AI also trains there, surely it wasn't in the original conditions?
Nobody ever "paid for Coffee" anyway, sad.

May 2 dl, June 6 dl, July 1.....everywhere is strange decline on previous years, what's the trend?

I uploaded this month 2000 images.
Will the sales go up in the next months (1-2 years) with this images?
Or down?

Because I have a feeling the older images will make fewer sales. Exception bestseller.
What do you think. Can I sit back and relax me now?  ;)

2000 images hmm, if you are on SS, I would not want to look in the month - INSIGHTS - IMAGE GALLERY STATS  :(

June is better than May, trying to experiment "not to add new photos"

All agencies behave the same, comes a revolution?

And sales in the DT? I had all of last year and this year not selling almost anything, it seems odd that a DT in the BIG 4 ! But things are changing fast, so i guess Microstock is different than before 2013: (

"It appears to me that we are simply witnessing the inevitable slow death of a once-great business that has been appallingly mis-managed for several years. I'm just waiting for a major announcement from Getty that they are 'consolidating' some of their agencies, shedding (more) staff and closing (more) outlying offices."


I think so.

Dear contributors ,
As of 15.2.2014 our new agency policy is that all of our photographers will get 60% on all sales.

Thanks a lot,
Fox Images Team

Interestingly, we have the content, you have customers?
