All my images get reviewed but it usually takes two - three weeks

Good to hear that.
Have you got any images reviewed recently? Within last week, may be?

They reviewed 20 images yesterday, it took a couple of weeks.

I do get a sale there every once in a great while.   I give them credit for recognizing the heart of the problem:  there has to be some relationship between the number of actual buyers and the supply of images, so that it's possible for an individual contributor to make some money.   There is no simple answer to this, but just mindlessly taking in more millions of photos doesn't work.

True, but when they again accept uploads we all will probably just upload those files that are backlogged for that site.

In a few years we all will look back on these years as the good old days.  The TTIP will succeed and the Corporate Oligarchs will convert Europe into something unrecognizable to what it is today.  Under the slogan of fair trade there will be an attack on environmental laws, workers issues, even cultural differences.  I have been to 3 demonstrations here in Munich but I know the New Aristocracy will keep pushing until they get what they want.  Say hello to Monsanto and the false God of corporate efficiency.

These trade agreements have destroyed the American middle class and TTIP is coming to Europe in all its glory . . . .

I have already uploaded about 1800 images, most of those looks they are in pending cut-out situation (what ever it means?). About two three weeks ago I first time checks out my online images and there was 880 and now 871 images.

At the moment I do not upload any more, I wait, what's going to happen for cut-out and online images.
Pending cut-out means they are in a long queue of images where Canva intends to cut-out the background.

Its only a guess, but I have the feeling that the original business plan with isolated objects has changed, and those files waiting will never be cutout/finished.

They seem to have a lot of success without all the unnecessary work and costs of isolating.

We all know Greece is in big trouble, but how did it qualify under the Maastricht rules to begin with . . . . .  as often the case,  Goldman Sachs continues to screw the world.

It's kind of geeky reading but there are reasons for much of the world's troubles:

From Wiki

The Englischer Garten, German for "English Garden", is a large public park in the centre of Munich, Bavaria.

So, where's the beef?

Any progress on the files marked "Processing"?

45
That is true if you go to "Earnings" but if you Bookmark the "Downloaded" page you don't have to sign in again . . .  at least for me.  That page doesn't give you monthly totals but it does give you an idea of whats selling . . . it's the only workaround I've found.

General - Top Sites / Re: EU VAT Changes from January 2015! ALERT

@ Hobostocker

Germany is fine. Unemployment is going down and much lower than in many other countries, people are highly educated and a lot of our energy comes from home grown eco friendly wind/water/solar. It creates jobs in Germany,drives new technologies that can be sold abroad and makes us independent from crazy countries. Also our economy is 70% middle class businesses with a huge variety of services and technology,so we dont depend as much on a few superlarge cooperations.

Plus people are really good at insulating homes,buying cars that use little gas or foregoing their cars completely,because we actually have a fully working public transport infrastructure. I sold my car in 2009, havent needed one since.

We hate taking loans and are careful with credit cards and people plan their financial lives very carefully.

So I know we love to complain and it might all look depressing from the outside, but this is overall a very safe and friendly place to live.

Bravo cobalt

the message goes on to say:

We want to stress that GL Stock Images is not going out of business, nor are we in financial distress. We are making a temporary adjustment that will help us become a stronger competitor in the ever changing stock photo market.

We truly appreciate your talents and your loyalty to GL, and hope that you will continue to be a contributor once uploading resumes.

The GL Team


Seems like a mature business decision.
