Some JIU sales are showing up today but none from Photos.com. Overall it has been a better than average month on StockXpert

Not sure what's going on this month with only 1 sale so far. Last month I had 10. Inconsistent or some other problem? :-[

Just got paid for last month and had asked support to check that my EL sales were legitimate. All seems to be fine. :)

204
Also received my payment today  :)

That is amazing! Thanks.

Signed up last night. 8 lo-res photos uploaded that aren't on any other site. Added 2 more and then submitted them to the Getty pool.

I'm in! PC didn't like my bellsouth email address so I tried my website email. That worked. Now have 10 pending. I like how you can see the pending number. :)

There used to be a time when printers wouldn't accept jpegs because of the lossy quality issue, only took tifs and eps. Because of this, I save at the highest quality setting.

I tried about 5 times to get an activation code. Their email is not in the junk or deleted files, never showed up, like it was blocked or something. I give up or could try a different email address.

No activation code. No reply to my email to support. Seems rather unprofessional. Guess I'll let this one go.

Well, I tried to sign up last weekend but never got my activation code :-\ Sent a note to support.
Haven't had the privilege of being rejected yet.  :) Hopefully soon!

I really feel like I'm missing out on a good opportunity here but I'm not a member of Flickr. Tempted to sign up now just to see what happens.

« on: November 10, 2009, 09:05 »
Been with DT for about 1 year and 9 months with 500 photos/graphics online. Their latest changes are not good for new contributors. DT used to be a solid 2nd and has fallen to 4th place. Very disappointing. :-[
RPD last 6 months:
$1.13
$1.12
$1.09
$0.89
$0.88
$0.93

Avg. $1.09

Off Topic / A rare look inside an actual birdhouse
« on: November 05, 2009, 12:14 »
As an avid bird watcher, I really appreciate the work that went in to this commercial. Note the beautiful stock image in the opening frame. :)

Robinsons 'Bird house'


Interview with the creator

IS  34%
SS  21%
123RF  17% (BME 3 ELs)
DT  11%
StockXpert  5%
FT  4%
BigStock  3%
Veer  2%
PBC  1%
CanStockPhoto .5%

Overall 3rd BME. DT used to be a solid second but since the changes, they regressed backwards about 8 months. Very disappointing. Veer continues to do better every month. FT never has done well for me.

216
With close to 600 photos online at BigStock, have seen no increase in sales since acquired by SS. :-\

I like the website and the photos, very artistic.  :) Don't know how well I would do on a German site but do have some bizarre nature photos I could try to upload. Who knows.

Wow! That's amazing. Congratulations :) Can I ask what type of photos were bought as ELs? 2 of mine were seasonal graphics and one was an isolated object.

General Stock Discussion / Re: Are U Mac or PC?
« on: October 31, 2009, 08:36 »
Getting ready to buy my 4th Mac, a Mac Pro Quad-Core. My current G4 is almost 7 years old and still runs great, have never reformatted it, but need the intel processor to run Deep Meta and other apps. I used to have a Windows machine for some freelance work but it sat gathering dust for years and I finally got rid of it. ;) I subscribe to the idea that working on a beautiful machine makes your work more beautiful. :)

« on: October 31, 2009, 08:27 »
I hope we get to keep them. :) I was bit concerned that the sales might be due to fraud but haven't really heard that 123RF has problems like that. Cross our fingers.

123RF / 3 ELs in 4 Days
« on: October 29, 2009, 15:00 »
So I've been on 123RF for about 1 1/2 years with no ELs but in the last week I've had 2 EEL sales and 1 PEL sale. Does this seem strange to anyone? Sounds too good to be true.

Emptied cache in Safari. Still see OD subscriptions available. In Firefox, no OD subscriptions available.

Sorry guys, I was wrong about the situation. Guess I just didn't want to believe it :-\  I called the SS 800 number and they said they have removed the OD plan and told me about the company they acquired (Bigstock). Kind of shocking to find out this way. :-[

That's not true. The English plan IS offering OD subscriptions. I just looked at it. You are spreading misinformation.

I logged in using my company's account and clicked the Renew button. There are 4 types of On Demand subscriptions available today.

I upload photos from my 40D 10 mp camera but have had problems at times with the softness rejection. Alamy has tightened their technical standards since I joined about a year ago. They used to take uploads from my 10 mp Canon Sureshot but not any more.
