You are "in the process of updating" your privacy policy?
And that makes it ok to breach it now?
Are you serious???


And regarding the whole issue of platform vs. re-seller:
You have always acted exactly like an agency (you set the terms, you set the prices, you decide the content we sell via a review process, you process the money flow and we only get our share once a month, you have the contact to the buyer - not us).
No claiming you "always were" a platform is completely ridiculous.

And most important: I have read through many pages of discussions on your forum, but have not found a single explanation of why you are making those changes.

If you really insist on being a "platform" you have to
  • stop rejecting images for stupid reasons - essentially no review process
  • let us set the price
  • let us define the license terms
  • reduce your fees - 64% is way too much for a "platform"

If you don't do that, all your claims of being a platform are irrelevant, you are still a re-seller, however you call yourself.

Yep, did you read Cocomero's post and example:
http://themeforest.net/forums/thread/more-on-financial-tools-and-vat/161572?page=3

NON-Exclusive individual in Poland:
Net earnings: $36 income tax $25,60 vat on Author Fee $10,12 = $0,28 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, I have a business (VAT) and when I issue invoice.. I must collect VAT and perform to the tax authorities! I can't understand how Envato even can collect my VAT?

If my individual customer live in EU, I must collect customers (country) VAT.. what ever it is. That's why I close my symbiostock, it's so frustrating system.

I don't know what to do with Envato, I like it, but this is also frustrating.. all of this!

Panthermedia.net / Images out from the partner sites
« on: February 14, 2015, 07:49 »
I delete images from Panthermedia, but how long it takes that images are out from a partner sites. Anyone have a experience?

It is so messy and illegal for EU contributor that I ask if they can put my portfolio offline until they fix those issues. If they can't do that, I think only solution is to close account.

I sent a query about week ago via [email protected] and still waiting a response.

Ignore is bliss. All forums should have that option.

I hope he wins his case, it is crazy that people do adult themed sessions and then are surprised if they show up in adult related websites. Images get stolen every day on the internet, if you dont want your images to be used in that context, you really cant show them anywhere online. That is the only way to prevent image theft and abuse.
Not only! It's so easy to take photo or scan printed media and make image available to internet! Everyone can do this these days..

It's stuck, I can't go further than a "profile". After Continue it's totally stuck.. nothing happens.. I tried Safari and Crome.. I use partnerships and so on..

Now I know why it's stuck. "Legal Entity Name" don't accept scandinavian letters like , and . Nice bug iStock!
They don't work in submissions, titles or descriptions or keywords either.
Or editorial captions, unless that's changed recently.
Those are more understandable, so I must little lie and use a wrong name :)

Print on Demand Forum / Re: thoughts about a few POD sites
« on: January 18, 2015, 12:54 »
Started to upload to Redbubble in December. More that 5000 views but no sales. Are those views just bots, does anyone know? Hardly any views at all on Zazzle, but a few small sales.
Same here, I start also in December. About 10000 views, 9 favorites and 1 sales.

Suomenkielinen keskustelu / Panthermedia ja 15%:tin verosta eroon
« on: December 27, 2014, 07:55 »
Onko kukaan suomalainen pyytnyt meidn verottajalta thn dokumenttiin allekirjoituksia Saksaan lhetettvksi, ett psisi eroon tuosta 15%:tin verosta? Dokumentti on tm: http://www.panthermedia.net/docs/FreistellungsauftragQuellensteuer.pdf

Sinlln ihan outo juttu tuo Panthermedian systeemi muutenkin, ett kaikki joutuu maksamaan tuon veron riippumatta siit, ett onko kyse yksityinen henkil tai firma. Kirjanpitjkin ihmetteli tuota veroa, kuinka se yleenskn on mahdollista kun saajana, iknkuin laskuttajana on yritys.

« on: November 03, 2014, 08:28 »
Has anybody checked if their images disappeared from the Inmagine website after they unchecked the "API partner" box?
My images are disappeared.

400 million images...
Just about 40 million images for me :)

e) You start measuring supermarket prices in subscription downloads.
And how about the plastic bottle recycling prices :)

« on: September 19, 2014, 15:56 »
Mine are mostly 0.30 but some 0.44 lately and one 2.94 sub also.

Always shut down at every refresh ...
Same here too..

121
I asked that's going on, Vickys answer:

We have removed this option from photographers' profile since we are completely updating our API functionality. Our API partners will be able to re-sell our files purchased by credits only and photographers' commissions will be higher than they receive from direct sales.

122
But how can I keep track of my licences? When I buy on 123rf of Bigstockphotos, I don't get a receipt for each photo. All I see is that the photo is available to download and that I used credit point.

But if one day the sites close, I won't have any proof that I bought the pictures there.
Invoice?

P.S. Kielo is flower in Finland.. lily-of-the-valley :)

« on: June 03, 2014, 23:16 »
the newest update from my FT account: 1 download this month :o
Same here!

I just look my RPI on Fotolia, if year 2012 is output value 100%, then:

2012 100%
2013 87%
2014 38%

Fotolia is going fast down.. if this year is very bad.. what to do.. go back.. opt-in DPC.. just kidding, absolute not :)

I also notice that, I don't remember last time when was 7 day rank worse than overall rank. Now it's worse.

125
Same here today 100% rejected, focus issue.. and they are not!

Resubmitted and about 30% was accepted. I made more sharpening, little over my own taste.

Yesterday two sets was 100% accepted. And same there, little more sharpening..
