Symbiostock - Technical Support / Re: Selling Zipped Files
« on: July 18, 2013, 17:24 »
right click => New compressed/zipped folder => select the files you want and drag them into the zipped folder; every file you put into the folder will be automatically zipped.

It's a request but I don't know at what stage is.
Maybe a try to see the thread where there are the features and plugin request. Or try to contact Leo to know more.

It's possible, you can run symbiostock in network, in closed network or as a single site and opt-out the network feature.

Thank you Alberto.
From what I understand you are not a novice in IT and maybe in WordPress but for understand what is Symbiostock feature and "how to" this is a great resource in progress.
In getting started step 6, you can view the screenshot where the network is activated.
And from now this site is in my sign, too many don't know this resource.

If there was something like a commission based referral program or you could opt-out of the network part (Which I believe is the whole goal of Symbiostock) I would certainly invest the time to setup and customize one of those sites.

Thank you Leo

I wish a feature, a link to amazonS3, but next days finally I'll have more free time. Will be time for switch my theme to symbiostock, even without this feature. When Leo will made I'll buy it, in the meantime I'll study some customizations.

He is certainly well travelled  :)
Absolutely yes  :D

Published new interview about Steve Estvanik (cascoly). I'm happy Steve was a surprise, an interesting man, and the article is worth a read. If you read it I think you'll have the opportunity to discover interesting things.
Thanks to Steve a nice man.

Dreamstime.com / Re: What is the default action?
« on: July 07, 2013, 07:05 »
If I never got this message they would give them away.
Every time an image is elegible to this action they sent the email. Also if you have any doubt, in your management area you can see if any of your files are in the free section. Go in management area in the middle in the statistic section the last row there is the line with the number of your files in the free section. Is something like " 10 free "images". So if you want click on the number (is a link to these images); and in the new page you can manage the files and disable it to keep the control over them.

Symbiostock - SEO & Marketing / Re: Symbiostock.net
« on: July 04, 2013, 17:26 »
Matt the site looks clean and is beautiful. Great job.

40
Also I appreciate the "branding templates" page with all the image sizes needed. Often these sizes are missed and cause headache  ;D

41
Thank you Amanda this is a great idea!
We need this type of resource, well done.

42
This happen only for the trees illustrations. The thumbnails are white but if you click on them the big images are with the background black. Other illustrations i.e. colorful banner or the small palm tree are correct and congruent with the preview. Different workflow?

General Stock Discussion / Re: apology to Ron
« on: June 22, 2013, 16:58 »
I don't know in which thread this comment was made; but you gain my respect.

44
cthoman I think that if an agency really believe in your work, will never ask for money to get your illustrations. If we speak about big company as istock ss etc, their focus is quantity, so they never promotes artists, it's impossible; if we speak about small agency they need to change the current trend and stop behaving like the big agencies and starting to consider their contributors like a value.
But I think that isn't the trend nowadays.
Also, if we consider the 98% kept by colourbox what I wrote is pretty close to the truth. Shooting time, PP, keywording, upload the files, and 0,2 is less than what you spend for some work. Yes I know a pictures can sell many times but really I can't see how this can be profitable.
To the OP I'm happy that you left this agency, and best wishes for your business.

45
Colourbox is the worst in the business, hands down. On single image sales of vectors they take $12.50 from the buyer and pay $0.46 to the artist. It amounts to a roughly 3.7% royalty rate.

Adding insult to injury it sounds like they've got plenty of money to hire new people and expand their own business internally, but no time to address the ridiculous royalty structure.

Absolutely horrendous.

How do they have any images? I wonder about contributors sometimes.

Same question.
Problem isn't the agency. But I'm sure that in a couple of years some agencies will give us the opportunity to pay to give them the photos.

Symbiostock - Suggestions / Re: Paid Plugin Requests Here
« on: June 17, 2013, 02:28 »
@pixart
In wordpress you can set up pages with password. So i.e. you can create in the header the men clients with nested pages for clients and protect them with password. If I recall right in the wordpress official plugins directory, there are some more advanced plugin to handle this thing.
