Berlin, Germany. Polling station for Russians to vote for putin. The Germans are helping putin get as many votes as possible and increase voter turnout. The Germans are also helping to make putins elections legitimate.
Support for the Na.zis = Nazism.
Fake news again from you. European politics is obviously too complex for a simple mind. Yulia Navalnaya organized these queues, or rather called for them, in front of polling stations all over Europe to vote not for Putin but for the opposition and to set an example. These pictures can be seen in all European countries, so they have nothing to do with Germany in particular.

I don't understand why people waste their time uploading to Dreamstime
The upload for already prepared images runs on the side and I wouldn't call it work. Brings in around 400 dollars a year. If I add the other small agency Deposit, I get a total of $800. I can easily fly to the Canary Islands or pay the electricity bill from here from that amount. I think that's cool for the small outlay and a nice extra income for a hobby. I don't understand your question.

you really enjoy in that?!
No, he doesn't. He very probably has a narcissistic obsessive-compulsive disorder. In this respect, it makes no sense to continue discussing or even criticizing here, as the last 100+ pages impressively show.

documentary about tens of thousands Palestinians killed in Gaza?! Please send me a link
Both are certainly terrible.
But if you're suggesting that the events in Ukraine can in any way be compared to the Gaza Strip, then you've just won the competition for unqualified comments against Stoker.
you DO understand what my point was
Not really.
and thanks for unprovoked qualification

Hi Ralf,
Thank you for the really interesting information.
Editorial did really very well for me on SS, which is the main reason I miss the port a lot and twenty20. Also on istock still regular sales.
Never thought about sending editorial to Dreamstime. Will absolutely do that.
They even have a breaking news section from what I read.
And always, they were the only agency that raised payouts during the pandemic. i think that counts for something.
Jasmin, every agency reacts differently to the portfolio. Because of the editorials, Alamy is probably also doing very well for me in comparison. But I have completely written off iStock for myself. I only reach the payout limit here every 1-2 years. It's a shame because of all the upload work, but it doesn't really upset me. It works better for others, so it's down to my port. I absolutely agree with you that Dreamstime is one of the fairer agencies. That's why I don't understand all the excitement here, or even hostility. If you only cash out once in a blue moon, you should just forget about the agency like I did with iStock. There are more important things to get excited about

"Some people do cash out a few times a year, my compliments to them for having the right images for DT, to make it work."
I have been wondering about this. The DT sales thread has people who post quite often. Most of them are fully exclusive with DT.
Not sure how much they make, but some of them have very strong sales with a small or a not so great port (IMO). Also quite a bit of editorial sales. I keep undererstimating editorial everywhwere.
There also some well known people with large people ports that have very high sales numbers.
In the end quality always makes money.
I get a payout from Dreamstime (not exclusive) 3-4 times a year. Approx. 15,000 images, no videos. Rarely sales in the 2 digit range. Most sales are actually editorials. I wouldn't necessarily attribute it to the quality, but to the topics. I edit a whole range of niches.

"Well, the milkman's a spy, and the grocer keeps on following me,
And the woman next door's an undercover for the K.G.B.,
Yes, you Germans know all this very well and are familiar. I think thats how it was in the GDR. It is very possible that the GDR will soon return to Germany again along with the KGB and Stasi. Then you will sing this song again.
No, I don't know that and I've lived here for a while. The Kinks are a British band, by the way.

Very good tip, Ralf.
Nonsense gets better when you dress it up!
Yes Wilm, we two German KGB agent parasites know how to promote propaganda.

Even automated online payments are not free. You need software, a payment service provider or payment gateway. This costs money and the prices usually depend on the invoice volume.
In this respect, Dreamstime's argument is understandable.
I prefer the high payout limit to lower sales revenue 
Payment companies offer these transfers, services and free software to many sender, as they take a good cut in the currency exchange, with the loss of the recipient of course.
In my opinion, this is not correct. If you look at the price structures of payment gateways such as Ayden, Stripe (payment service for Airbnb) etc., the client (sender) pays the costs and not the the recipient. This is comparable to card payments. As a businessman, you pay the fees for the transfer and use of the devices.

I will write about the lies of Biden and the US Democrats. These bast.ards are shouting in all the media that military aid from the United States is not coming to Ukraine due to the fault of the Republican Party. In fact, this is all a lie.
There are several mechanisms to transfer weapons to Ukraine (if only there is a desire):
1. By directly financing military orders and new weapons production.
2. By signing the Lend-Lease law (it was in force until last year, but the friend of the Russians, Biden, did not supply weapons under this law). So, if that bas.tard Biden wanted to help Ukraine with weapons, he would sign or extend the Lend-Lease and give permission for the supply of weapons under the Lend-Lease. This would mean that the Pentagon would independently begin to supply weapons to Ukraine from warehouses in the United States. These supplies do not require any financing.
But, as we see, the liars Democrats are doing everything to help the Russians occupy Ukraine and not supply weapons to Ukraine in the required quantity and type.
Biden's place in the electric chair! The US Democratic Party must be banned!
A little tip: It would probably be even more impressive for your invisible followers if, in addition to the red font color, the characters were also flashing in different colors.
Which of course doesn't make the nonsense being spouted here any better.

I haven't written them, but I have seen statements by them in their forum, here is a direct quote:
"We cannot accommodate requests of $50 for the simple reason this would increase the payment requests volume considerably."
I have no idea why in 2024 some companies still claim an online payment process cannot be automated.

You signed up with the site when these payment terms were clearly stated - no changes, no subterfuge. Making totally false statements about the agency doesn't help anyone.
Thank you Jo Ann, that's exactly the point. Dreamstime pays me on time several times a year. If one is struggling to reach the payout limit, it might be the wrong agency for the portfolio.

?! How you have considered I was talking about you?! One you mentioned I was reffering to.
There is one thing that Im not sure about him - is he just confused or very thoughtful spinner
Then a sincere apology from my side. I had actually judged your post against me and did not understand the accusation in any way. Things just get a bit heated here sometimes

one participant in this theme, always resists to other opinions even if there are credible sources on actual themes he finds enemys where they are not yes, there is controversy in this text on DW but some facts are not supporting positions of his conspiracy theory universum
 Cool, Stoker has actually found a friend. Then explain to me, where I have spread conspiracy theories here?

A very bad, one-sided article from Deutsche Welle, which in no way reflects German opinion or the situation. First and foremost, the opinion of a single sociologist is propagated here, whose name I have never heard before. Moreover, the article is contradictory in itself. At the beginning it is claimed that social benefits are not the reason for the low employment rate because other countries also pay social benefits. A few lines later, it is then reported that social benefits in Germany are the highest in comparison. I miss any substantive benefit here. Why did you post that?

I won't be surprised if Trump wins. Democrats are the same as Russians with the same low level of propaganda. I think US citizens have long understood this.
You don't even realize e how effective russian propaganda is.
They even convinced you that trump is your saviour.
So sad!
However I don't mind off-topic discussions, this thread has gone way out of line, and it makes no sense anymore.
"OK Sergey" is the only possible reply to him.
You have to realize he's most probably just one of those many Russian trolls wandering online forums (social media and Reddit is full of them) wanting to undermine anything that's pro democracy or not in line with Russian propaganda.
This thread, despite so many people giving valuable information, willing to have fair discussions or debates, should be closed (sorry Pete! I know you had the right intentions here!)
In the course of the whole discussion, a lot of people have participated here, including Russians. I've gained a lot of knowledge here that I wouldn't have gained anywhere else. This thread is not about Stoker, even if he imagines it is. The thread here is the most active and longest lasting. You probably haven't even followed it in detail. That's why I find the question as to why you're rattling in here without prior participation and claiming that you want to close the thread much more interesting. If you are overwhelmed by all this and not interested (what I can understand), there is a simple solution: Don't read here. That's why I find your first spontaneous contribution here a little inappropriate and patronizing.

Zero Talent, you are scaring everyone here with some kind of maga faction and what they supposedly for putin and that these maga want to support russia.
Have you now been elected as the forum spokesperson for everyone here? Or was it your thousands of invisible followers? You're the only one who gets a headwind here and tries to spread fear. Zero is showering you with comprehensible facts, all of which bounce off you.

Der Bundestag hat die Lieferung von Taurus-Marschflugkrpern an die Ukraine abgelehnt. Ein Antrag der CDU/CSU-Bundestagsfraktion, in dem dieses deutsche Waffensystem explizit genannt wurde, erhielt am Donnerstag keine Mehrheit. Nur 182 Abgeordnete stimmten dafr, 480 dagegen, es gab 5 Enthaltungen.

I didnt expect anything else from the Germans.
Yes, the mood is changing here in Germany. With your constant bashing of Germany, you've played a small part in that. Congratulations. Apparently your inner voices have also taken over your last functioning brain cells. Comparing the deportation of Ukrainians in the Second World War with the current humanitarian reception of Ukrainian refugees is nonsense, simply disgusting and embarrassing.

1. So what is the problem then about transferring missiles to Ukraine?
2. If the approach of the Russian army to the EU borders does not scare you, you can completely stop supporting Ukraine.
3. And my personal opinion is that those 40 thousand US soldiers will flee from Germany as quickly as they fled from Afghanistan. The likelihood of this is even higher if the Democrats and Biden win.
1) I don't know, I'm not the Minister of Defense. The deliberations of the decision-makers take place behind closed doors. I find it understandable that in a war situation not all information is made public. 2) One gets the impression more and more that you actually want the aid to stop. Apart from self-protection, there are many reasons to support Ukraine against an attack that violates international law. 3) Your personal opinion is pretty irrelevant.

How many Germans are ready to fight? How many planes and tanks can Germany field against the Russians?
Your logic is not correct.
Ukraine can prevent Russians from approaching the EU borders and eliminate the Russian army on Ukrainian territory. If the Russians occupy Ukraine, Poland, and the Baltic states, they will approach the borders of Germany and the Russian army will be replenished with mobilized Ukrainians and Poles. You Germans wont even want to resist.
You need to think strategically.
Better put KGB agent Merkel in prison and remove her follower Scholz.
The voices in your head have forgotten a small variable: If Russia were to attack just one of the countries mentioned, it would be fighting against NATO - in other words, over 30 countries. And unlike Ukraine, these countries have air forces and navies. And just by the way: 30,000 - 40,000 American soldiers are already stationed in Germany, 90,000 throughout Europe since the beginning of the Ukraine war. So just stay relaxed.
