Exclusive with over 5,000 photos. Worst month in years... The site is broken and they don't seem to be in any hurry of fixing it.

Use a Wacom instead of the mouse in PS, much more efficient.

In any lawsuit there has to be claim of the damages. And I am afraid that they can prove a case here. The issue is not that the model is wearing glasses - the issue is that the model is wearing a $800 dollar "status" glasses. No frames should be costing this much money unless they are A) made of pure gold or other precious materials B) allow the person wearing them distinguish themselves from "common folk" and show to the rest of the world that they are rich. This is what designer clothes and other items including glasses are made for. Now, we're in business of selling photos for little money to "common folk" mostly. Imagine a person who bought expensive designer glasses for "status" reasons (I see no other reasons to do that) looking in their mail and seeing a flyer from local plumber featuring a model wearing the same glasses. The status is gone, and with that the value of the glasses. The company making these glasses can argue that selling stock photos with this glasses undermines their "status" value, which undermines their sales. Damages proved. Why you Yuri - well sadly this is the price you pay for being successful and well-known. Like other people said they think they can fleece you. And, sadly again, they can. They have better lawyers and more money. So give them what they want (settle) and move on.
Well said and +1

They sue you because of your "deep pockets" thats all. I would settle out of court, the eyewear company want money thats all, they don't really care if you use them on stock photos or not. In court not only will you probably loose you will also pay hefty lawyer fees.
Settle!

90c is nothing, just wait and see how much they charged you on the currency conversion, you are in for quite a shock!

Worthless. Don't waste your time.
It is happening __ whether you like it or not. The trend is obvious to any independent contributor with a mature portfolio. IS is losing and SS is winning and that process is steadily accelerating. IS have blown it and there's absolutely no chance of the situation reversing unless IS do something drastic and quickly __ which is very, very unlikely.
You can stick your head in the sand and deny all the evidence for as long as you want ... but it won't change the reality.
Didn't say it isn't, I noticed it myself actually, I was talking about this worthless site thats all.

Another bad month.
Just above 2,000$ made.
+ 17% compared to Sept 2012 + 18% compared to Oct 2011
Port grew by about 50% to ~5,000 images.

If they are doing so bad as some people claim, how come the graph on the "polls" section on this site shows they IS's performance is trending more or less as SS's and even better then the other agencies ? This doesn't make much sense.

Point is, for the investor. After the the sixth year it is only surplus. That is a good investment.
*Sigh*
What if the income should drop by say 25% per year? That's roughly the rate at which the libraries are growing right now. How long will it take to produce your 'surplus' then?
Only a total fool of an 'investor' would pay 5x earnings for a microstock portfolio.
Exactly. That is one of the main reasons I had a lot of trouble closing any deals (and I was close).

Tried that. Very difficult to accomplish.
