Can you post his Adobe Stock portfolio?

It took them between 1-2 weeks the last time I reported an infringer. That was about a month ago. Because of the Thanksgiving weekend, you may be looking at 2 weeks.

And you gotta love how lazy they are. Copy the exact same keywords and then have the image show up in the similars section. Makes it easy for them to get caught.

Thank you, I hope they delete it until the end of the week.
Here it is the port on AS: https://stock.adobe.com/ro/contributor/207492251/50mm-studio

Why would SS hurry??  when theyre earning money on all stolen goods!

That�s exactly why I don�t think they care about it, unless a contributor makes a big stink, or it�s one of their best-selling contributors. Money is money, they don�t care how they make it.

That's what I am afraid of and unfortunately as you can see I am not a top contributor

And he/she has the guts to put this in the profile.

"Welcome to my portfolio. I am very passionate illustrator and photographer. My portfolio is very randomized so I hope you find and buy. Thank you."

Yes, I saw that, very annoying
In the meantime I found the same port on adobe stock also.

For me royalties from vectorstock are about 8% of what I earn on shutterstock. What I have also noticed is that VS has very low sales during summer months. The ~8% is an average for 2018. Hope this helps.

So Canva removed 80% of my approved images and now they'll get tons of similar "unwanted" images through IS.
BAD BAD NEWS!

What? Can you elaborate what happened? How they just remove your images? This is scary.

Few years ago they decided to remove a lot of previously approved images, because they don't need them anymore! Even images with a lot of sales have been deleted! It was not just me, many contributors complained about it here on MSG.

I just noticed, that some of my images (that sold quite well) were removed. The funniest thing, that I keep getting sales for an image that is not available anymore...

This teaming up with getty is very disappointing indeed .

Maybe we should have an anonymous poll and grant to the qualified agencies the right to use a "fair trade" label.

Exactly my thought after reading this topic. Would be even nicer if this could be done "officially" like setting some terms under which an agency can have this label and they could add this to their website.
I wonder if it is possible.

Hi,

I don't know any specific site for patterns only (except maybe patterndesigns.com - with pretty low sales).
You can try on all generic stocksites (see list on the right).
As long as you are not exclusive with any of the sites, you can submit the same file to several agencies.
Good luck!

After a quick search I found out storyblocks is videoblocks rebranded, so you should search the forum for that, there's plenty of posts about videoblocks.

I don't know if they are good enough, I am not a contributor there.

I don't think this "Fresh" thing is a bad  thing. Like you said, it's better to sell a file one time than 0 time. And that will not stop your file to being sold again, it's just an extra thing - the way I see it. Not all customers will use it all the time probably.

Regarding your ticket, I recently opened one, (about a rejection / misunderstanding) and they replied pretty fast, you should try again. Make sure you choose "contributor question" from drop-down menu, and that your e-mail address is correct.

For me sales are pretty much the same as usual, maybe even a little better this month so far.

Thank you Mat!

For 2 days i was trying to figure out what is wrong with my eps... 
Should we wait for a fix in a near future (couple of more days) or should we save AI? I really hope it's the first one.

How about the rest of my earnings once I have no longer access to the site ?

I would also like to know that, so i can plan closing my account. Can anyone share that with us? Thanks!
