Oh, my God! You still uploading to this abomination. Forget about this site.

Chaching!!

Previously rejected works begin to emerge at adobe stock.
Guess what's next? :)

Do you mean SS? Or do you really mean adobe? Adobe is doing that too?

I mean adobe dashboard of contributor.
I don't have twitter.

I come to conclusion, that stock is not affected by our actions.

I was going to lay back and enjoy this forum as a reader instead of a poster but after reading your post I wanted to give an update of my view on the current situation.

You are right about the stock market not being affected at all by our actions.
Too many contributors are still ok with this change. They complain but are still uploading while others that can afford to deactivate their portfolio don't. This will never work anyway if they can continue to sell our work so even though it's impossible for many of us our portfolio's should be in fact be deactivated because stopping uploads isn't going to change much. Their buyers don't seem to have any intention to shop elsewhere and that is because they can still get what they want with so much on offer.

Then we have other agencies who do not seem to be eager to take their place. My best sellers at SS (with one over 9k downloads) are now dead since they never took off at other agencies and it looks like they never will.
I have picked up a lot on uploading to Adobe but they don't move an inch so I don't think Adobe is the solution. This seems to be the case for many others btw. I was a bit overenthousiastic about Adobe in the past. This is also probably the reason Mat still has a port on SS. Adobe is not a performer, on the contrary they seem to be going down after deactivating my portfolio at SS. It's as if the competition is afraid of SS and hey, maybe they are!

....

Good luck to all my fellow contributors!

Thanks, for sharing your thoughts.
Agree that Adobe will not save us: they just another exploiter.

So i come to my final decision:
- enable my port at JUL 8
- delete all valuable stuff
- will not upload nothing new (forever)
- allow to flow fading income till it stops at some point
- delete ss bookmark
- forget about all this mess

I think that such scheme is pretty optimal.

Adobe Stock / QA is frozen?
« on: July 02, 2020, 13:40 »
I expect frozen sales  8) , but what about imagery which is stuck in QA forever?

They continue to remove 10c picture and text about their sh#tty actions from progile for the third time. Disgusting people, for sure. Put it back.
Be sure to check your own and return if needed.

I come to idea that shitter is not care about individuals [level of quality doesn't matter for them].
Their future: cheap image factories without any originality.

I can't afford to turn off my port at SS indefinitely.  I've put too much time into it.  If the big players won't cut them off, then what difference will my 2000 make?

Many people doing like you. So nothing will happen for sure.
I've disabled 2 ports 26.000 units in total.
Social media like fb and twitter utterly useless, considering the fact that they've got wild censorship and deleting/baning is a common stuff for them .
Cr#p sites for dumb ones.

13
It's port of russian stock pressfoto.
Casual pics nothing more, lot's of them [it is only my opinion].

But it looks like i am getting that you are saying about uselessness of boycott.


14
I've created this thread to accumulate different point of views and then based upon all of them make final decision.
So thank you for your opinions!

17
i am waiting for jul 8, if nothing will change will drop this pathetic sh#t.

18
They changed logo on utube channel and think that it will rebrand their sh#ty actions.
Pretty pathetic.


19
They begin to delete contributor icons with striked out 10c pictures and clearing description field about royalties drop.
Put everyting back, two ports.

20
Burn, baby burn!

21
It looks like the ss will go to the hands of sh#tty fb and then to instagram, amatures will sell their cats and daily life for a bout 0.05$ for a pix  or smth.

22
OMG I can't believe I read this! Game over, period

Please stay with us at least till Jul 8

I just deleted my account yesterday.
#boycottShutterstock

P.S. Can we get this hashtag to trend on twitter?

You'd need the K-Pop fan community to make things trend on Twitter. Does anyone have any connection to someone who can mobilize that army?

Everything will be removed in a snap.
Like crappy fb blocked information regarding ss.

In terms of resolution tweaked Nokia808 over-rank all these pathetic iphones and googlephones.
