123RF / Re: Put it to test and terrible!!
« on: May 22, 2011, 07:37 »
Somehow I always liked 123RF, first of all because they don't have categories, second because of a high acceptance rate, and third because of decent sales.
Only once I had to write to support to ask for a re-review.

copyrightdesign, don't get me wrong, but are you afraid that something will be discovered if you call SS? Maybe something else, and not this thing about filter forge.
If you are not located in USA you can use your google email account to call any US or Canada number for free. I do that all the time. They have a promotional period till the end of the year, and they give free phone calls to any number in USA and Canada. Just set your email account language to English, and enable phone call option.

It's that simple. I don't understand why you posted your question here, when there is no one competent who can answer your question here. Just call SS, and tell us what happened.

I'm more than satisfied with audio sales at Pond5. It replaced completely my audio sales at Istock. So, I guess they should be doing well regarding photos too..

They may be using views as a 'most downloaded' metric.

Other categotries (videos, music...) are sorted correctly. Just photos and illustrations don't have any downloads shown.

« on: May 19, 2011, 17:09 »
When I list all images on Pond5, and sort them from the most selling to least selling, I see that most selling photo has 0 downloads, which automatically means all other images have 0 downloads as well.
I guess this is not possible, right? Must be some glitch??

iStockPhoto.com / Re: Istock F5 epic fail
« on: May 08, 2011, 12:00 »
This is definitely an ongoing epic fail:

http://www.istockphoto.com/forum_messages.php?threadid=310482&page=4#post6372250

More than two months and he has not been paid for his high res image downloaded from Getty. And not a single word from admins about it, publicly or privately.

Incredible.
It seems like nobody from IS staff feels concerned by this kind of problems. How many of us haven't been payed without knowing it? Is this another bug or another way to make more profit?


I mentioned once, long ago, that we actually don't have a way to really find out if some agencies cheat us, and I got almost sent to a guillotine by some people. And I said that the only way to notice this kind of cheating is to find an image that's been published, but it doesn't have any downloads.

Let's hope it's just a February sale that will be reported among march sales.

First of all, I want you to know that I always fought against Milosevic, and I was in Belgrade on that famous october 5th when we brought him down. :)
Second, I was telling you about mosques because monasteries were burnt, and mosques built. That was a real ethnic cleansing. If it was vice versa, be sure that I would mention that, because I also don't support the idea of crusaders spreading Christianity around the world. That was also horrible.
And third, I don't know what you mean by me blaming someone? Who is to blame for ethnic cleansing of Serbs from Kosovo?
If you were just here to see columns of people on tractors running away from there, I'm sure you would wonder what happened.

143
I simply don't support war, because it has so many bad consequences. There are always more civilized ways. 10 years of negotiation are better than 1 month of war, and I know it from my personal experience. But people who didn't experience the war don't really know how looks like.
I don't blame American people for not feeling for other nations in war (respect to exceptions). They had 9/11, and only then they felt how terrible it can be. But that's just one day of terror. It's far from enough to change the view on the world and life. For me, few months of everyday bombing was more than enough to realize what the war is. There are still half demolished buildings in our capitol city, with now already big trees growing from them as a reminder of bombing. And that didn't do any terrorist. That was a legal action of nato army.
Also, when I was in the US I noticed that their news on tv are focusing on things like murders on streets of big cities in US, car crashes, celebrities, American economy.... There are no world news that talk about horrors in many other countries. Only the biggest events are reported, like an earthquake in Japan and so on. TV stations are owned and controlled by oil industry, and everything is subordinated to it. For example, there was a world meeting about global warming in Mexico, and it lasted for days, but I could only hear about it on Pacifica radio, which is an independent radio station. Nothing about it on TV.
I think American people are blessed to live in the country who spares them from bad news, and they are not to blame.
I was in one of the most developed parts of America, Silicon Valley, and I must say that people there are well informed, and have a big knowledge about the world we live in. But I am not sure about parts of the country that are less developed.
I like how American people live, and I think they have a healthier view of their own personal future, exactly because they are spared from reality that lurks across the oceans. They have more freedom to live their dreams, and that is a blessing. People I met are very friendly and open minded, and ready to help, and to give. But very rich people who lead the country, who pay politicians to vote for their interests, and pay minimal taxes on their fortune are another story. I can't really say I like them...

@jbarber873

When America decided to take action in the Europe during world war 2, Russia was on it's way to run over to the France, and America couldn't let that happen. Every powerful country wants to conquer the world, there is nothing new about it. Every empire in the history tried to do it. America is doing the same thing right now, just in a modern way, not with horses and swords.
If you think America is here to advance the freedom, come and live in Kosovo. Kosovo is "free", and full of American military bases. 12 years after military action ironically called "Merciful Angel", people are still suffering on Kosovo, and there are more problems than before 1999. Tens of Monasteries burned, with some of them older than 700 years, more than 200 mosques built in last 10 years with money from Saudi Arabia, and people are paid 300 Euros per month (which is enough to live the whole month) just to join the extremist islamic Wahabi movement. More than one million Serbs ran away from their homes, and Kosovo became almost ethnically pure Albanian. Everyday 80% of Opium produced in Afghanistan goes through Kosovo to reach western countries.  
Do you call this advanced freedom?

Colin Powell is a leader. He knows what it means to send troops into battle. He has been there in it. He is also a person who brought himself up from nothing in Harlem to where he got in the Military.


Do you really believe that the troops are sent anywhere in the world to make a peace, and not because of other interests??? Do you really believe in the humane reasons for attacking any country in the world because of their insane leader?? Do you really believe it couldn't be done in a much cheaper way, better for everybody, without loss of so many innocent lives?
I don't believe that troops are sent to make a peace. Why? Because all that money spent in a war could be spent in much better way by sending food and water to all dying children in Africa for example. But, there is no economic interests in helping children in Africa, right. It doesn't pay off...

I couldn't read the whole thread, but I must say I am a bit skeptical about the whole thing. Killing the most wanted terrorist in the world, and just throwing his body in the sea before anyone else can check if the body really belongs to Osama Bin Laden....hmm. I expected a big pompous announcements at least, and maybe even a video of a burial, as a lecture to other terrorists.

Probably we all have our own views here. There are people who were in the towers on that September 11th, who realized what the terrorism means in it's worst shape. But there are also people who experienced NATO bombing, like people in my country. I didn't do anything wrong to have windows on my house broken by bombs from NATO bombers. Those poor people who died from the cassette bomb on the farmers market in the city of Nis in the south of Serbia during NATO bombing 1999. also didn't do anything wrong. I watched tomahawks flying over my house for many nights wondering where are they heading, and will they miss the target and kill more innocent people, or maybe my family.

So, I don't like both, terrorists, and NATO army, because they grow one from another and they feed one another. I also don't like that 80% of the world's opium still comes from Afghanistan, even though NATO army is there for years.

There are ALWAYS some hidden purposes of every modern war in the world. Usually it's oil. I wonder what will happen when the wells run dry...

Just ask for payout, and when they refuse it, sue them for being non professional. It's not your fault, right? :D

Off Topic / Virtual choir that unites the world
« on: April 08, 2011, 08:14 »
I want to share something with all you guys who love music, and especially with Lisafx and Madelaide who are one of my best friends here on the forum. I am not very active last few months, but I made quite a success with my music. I'm having far more sales with few websites where I upload my music than I had with Istock before. Share is 40-50%, and the price for the music ranges from $100 - $60 000. Last week one of my pieces was chosen to be presented to the client who should choose the music for some TV ad, and the price was between 10 000 - 20 000. Unfortunately, the client didn't buy my file, LOL (I guess someone else had better sounding file).

Anyway, this video is made of about 2 000 voices from all around the world. They all uploaded their recordings separately, and then, all videos were gathered, and merged into one beautiful choral piece.
If anyone wants to join the choir, it is possible. We just have to checkout author's blog from time to time.
