John, one question:
This month I finally had one sale (at least according to received email)
I was trying today, and could not find any hint on the site how to get to my earnings. Is there any way that I do not see ?

What happened at AOL?
Not absolutely sure it was AOL, let just say "one very big company with forums" got sued by moderators (for not paying) and lost.

2. For _any_ type of phishing attack - how can taking site down help?
That's what I was thinking too.
Disconnecting, finding the breech, restoring files from backups?
Agree. At the time I've posted my #2 I did not see yet the part about forums. It makes the perfect sense to take down an offending site - even if in this case it is your own one. I just hope that this incedent will work as a wake-up call for IS and others. Almost a year ago on this and other forums I've pointed to unsecure logins to all but one microstock sites. The reaction was from absent to "who the heck will go for your couple bucks". Apparently there is somebody out looking for spare change  BTW, #1 was also not exactly right, caused by slight difference in terminology. I just used to call "phishing attack" something much more serious. For this level of phishing IS is a perfect target - with good effort/profit ratio.

I got a warning notice from Lookstat to change my passwords last night, but nothing from IS now that you mention it. 
and what is XSS anyway?
In simple words: Phishing - you are tricked to go to different site XSS - somebody puts the code on IS that (may) share all your data You can defend yourself from (1) by never using insecure login on IS (do not use one on top of the page, go to a separate login page, and always check "secure" icon in your browser), but the only defense from (2) is to disable javascript - and this in turn will make IS unusable.

Correction. It was links sent to members in sitemail an forums, so it was just phising, and not whatever xss stuff you're talking about.
Are you absolutely sure? The difference is simple: if it was phishing, only ones who used these links are in a bad shape; in case of xss - anybody who visited the site.

Very strange.
1. For a _real_ phishing attacks IS seems to be too small of a target. Big bad guys do not waste their time on something like this.
2. For _any_ type of phishing attack - how can taking site down help?
And to helix7 - phishing attacks compromise passwords only for those who got phished
Correction. As they say it was from forums ans sitemail, they did not have phishing attack. It was XSS exploit, and yes, everybody should change passwords (though who knows how many XSS holes they still have)

The few times I have had to email Cutcaster for support or whatever, I have always got a very expedient response...even on a weekend before. Maybe you can post or give a link to the photo's that got rejected for composition?
My apologies to everybody, and at the first place - to John. Will delete my original message. My complaints have absolutely no relation to Cutcaster, the only problem I have with it that my photos do not sell All my rants were about different site, that just happen to start with the same letter (CS), and I am either getting blind or crazy, as Cutcaster name was all over the thread

BTW UncleGene...If ever there is a moment that I would need someones opinion of my work, except coming from a buyer, I will ask for it. 
I've spent several minutes trying to understand what could cause such reaction. Still not sure, may be you thought that by "first couple examples" I meant your work? If yes, than you are wrong, sorry for not being clear. First couple examples are from the article. Or they are yours? If you check my past posts, I never ever judge others art work. The only thing that pisses me off, and my sarcasm in this post was about it, is incompetence in support (customer, technical, reviews, etc.)
