Just a steady decline over the years. I no longer send anything to them, waste of time.

I am reading in a lot of places that Adobe had an usually good January, several producers reporting best January ever on Adobe.
Maybe the gen ai collection is bringing them a lot of attention and new customers.
Yes Adobe January sales was double SS sales for me

Looking like the worst month at S/S in many many years.  Yet Adobe Stock just keeps rising and rising. Wondering if I bother sending to S/S?

It started declining at the beginning of 2022 and it fell off a cliff in November. Now I'm making 1/10 of what I used to make in 2019.
January 2023 looks like it's going to be abysmal.
At least Adobe Stock is picking up the slack. They are really taking over the industry. I just hope they continue to treat contributors well.
Same for me, Adobe Stock doing extremely well

This year for Oct
SS - 47% down
AS - 60% up
SS continue to under perform, AS continue to push ahead. Id swear down that SS are losing customers to AS.
Context, SS= several hundred, AS = several thousand p/month. The gap between the two is massive
Yes Adobe keeps going up while SS down.

I realize that it will probably be short-lived, but the old page (thankfully) is back.
YAY!

Hello Mat,
I appreciate your efforts and I think you're a nice person.
But I think Chillswell in his message was rather referring to the new commission rate for videos.
Yes we are not forced to submit our work into the free collection, but we are forced, and have no other choice than to accept that our videos are now sold with a price commission divided by 10...
Unless Adobe Stock allows us to opt out from this plan (which would not be very complex to set up), it is nothing but pure robbery.
Regards
Benoit
Thank you for the support, guess we both don't like licking boots so much.
Easier to just ignore us. Force us to sell our work for $0.50 cents and be "generous"
to have it listed for free, optionally . 
Nobody is forcing you anything, and it's not free, you get 5$.
You are right but they are also.
Everybody here hates shutterstock so much that they see Adobe as their savior an kiss up to them not realising that Adobe is in the same game and will act accordingly, as like all the others. As for example they did with videos just recently.
For myself, but I am a newby and don't have a big portfolio, I notice that shutterstock sells more different photos then the variety I sell on Adobe. And yes it's just ten cents most of the time but sometimes there will be bigger amounts that will surpass Adobe's commissions by a mile and make up for it. Same goes for Istock. More variety and way bigger sales now and then.
Mat is a nice guy but is being paid to be here and convey the message of Adobe. Some people however think he's doing it from his good heart. Which he probably has, but that's irrelevant because it's not the case here.
Adobe Stock has overtaken Shutterstock for me too. I don't sell video but I can see why Chillswell is upset, that's a big drop. Hoprfully Adobe Stock won't become greedy like Shutterstock.

The Photos which were for free in 2022 and Adobe wants to keep them for free in 2023: Do contributors get another time 5 USD per image?
Credit = USD?
In the 'fine print'... Adobe will have the right to keep your content in the free collection for additional 12-month periods, subject to (1) giving you notice and an opportunity to opt out and (2) paying you an upfront payment for each additional 12-month period that your content stays in the free collection.

... and over this past year you've mistreated your contributors like never before..
yet you ask them to submit their work for free?
How ? Where is that thing called humanity you used to have?
I've felt no mistreatment from them over the last year. Quite the opposite. The Free Collection helped move my other work. Been a great year!
