Uh oh. I just saw my yesterday's earning disappear from the balance again. It seems like the problem is still there unfortunately.

I don't think it would be illegal to open a checking account in the US even with a foreign address. This is what my bank says about opening a checking account here (I put some text in bold):
"Can I apply for a checking or savings account even though I am not a United States citizen? Yes. To open a checking or savings account over the phone you need several things, including: * Social Security number * Current street address (and prior address if you have lived at your current address for less than 5 years) * Information about the bank or financial institution from which the money will come to open the account * Some form of identification, including a matricula consular Mexicana, a valid local or international driver's license or a student or work ID. If you do not have a Social Security number, please visit a banking center to apply for an account." 105
Balkan / EX Yugoslavia / Re: New forum area for those with Balkan / Ex Yu languages« on: September 24, 2009, 19:30 »
I have learned a bit of Portuguese through my visits to Brazil as well as through some of my Brazilian friends here. I am going for another churrasco this Saturday. I even buy some Brazilian products here in a Portuguese store. I love guaran, goiabada, Serenata de Amor and other wonders from Brazil. Even my peach pav is not that bad .
About languages in former Yugoslavia, not counting minorities, there used to be three official main languages: Serbo-Croatian, Slovenian and Macedonian, all very similar. After Yugoslavia split, Serbo-Croatian was officially divided into Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian, and recently Montenegrin. They are all mutually intelligible, with minor differences in pronunciation and writing. 106

Very slow, but with Fotosearch regular sales still better than BigStock for me.

I think it's a very bad idea. It is also a very bad idea to ask about it in a public forum. I would like to think that this was a more of a provocation rather than a real question.

So which is which?We probably need more people to say if it worked for them. I had 3 sales on 123rf today and they all seem to have appeared in my balance as they happened. 112
Newbie Discussion / Re: finding my feet« on: September 23, 2009, 21:05 »Grammar is not the issue __ it's punctuation. Basic punctuation exists to make the text understandable to the reader. Most six-year olds know how to denote the beginning and the end of a sentence in their native language.I agree. It does take some effort to write properly, especially when people are so used to internet chatting and mobile text messaging that promote acronyms and bad punctuation in general. We should all make a reasonable effort to make ourselves understood easily here. I dont know why I was react but it was the first time to catch native English speaker with all this kind of (pravopisne nepismenosti)I understand your surprise, I only reacted because of the way you commented the guy's post. He is a new member and I would like that he feels welcome here. No hard feelings. By the way, in reference to your YouTube link, I don't speak Hungarian that well either 113

Today, it was the first time that sales have been updated as they happened, and not at the end of the day.

If they are really very small, you could try cloning them out completely. I don't think that blurring faces is a good idea.

Newbie Discussion / Re: finding my feet« on: September 23, 2009, 19:23 »Maybe try first to learn some basics of orthography eg. (coma, spaces, double spaces, Big letters and other kind of illiteracy in you text then go with you "Niche") ?!?Suljo, while we should all try to write properly, this should not be a place to put people down if they don't do it. If you have decided to call on someone for writing improperly, you should be certain that you write properly yourself. 116
Newbie Discussion / Re: finding my feet« on: September 23, 2009, 18:25 »
Sorry to hear about your applications. In the mean time, try to post your image to SS critique area, and once you get some positive feedback there, you will have a better idea what to submit in your next application.
You can also get someone to post images for you in the IS forum. Good luck. 117
Shutterstock.com / Re: ** Shutterstock just bought BigStockPhoto ** [Big News]« on: September 23, 2009, 17:59 »Quote from: lisafx link=topic=8971.msg116731#msg116731 To me it is a PITA to have to remember every time I select multiple images for categories to remember to check that little box so the keywords of each image are preserved. If I happen to forget then all of a sudden I am spamming because keywords from one image is applied to all selected images.I think it would be MUCH better if the little box is checked by default. BigStock, are you listening? 118

I hope this brings more buyers to BigStock. More investing in marketing should help there.

This looks very cheap. Logos are something which should be personalized. However, I still think there will be hundreds of contributors who will do this...

Having watermarks woudl be a must in my opinion. Right click protect is really not much of a protection.
