Thinking of applying to Getty and/or W61..
Does W61 accept RF or only RM?
Thank you!

I was asking earlier and still am confused about editing keywords - please, enlighten me!
The message says:
QTE
In the meantime, between August 20th (or shortly thereafter) and until contributor tools are fully unified.....
..You will no longer be able to edit your keywords via iStock.com or other third-party applications once submitted.
UNQTE
And then:
QTE
"The functionality for editing keywords may still appear on the file edit page, but it no longer supports updates to iStock.com. In fact, you may have already noticed that keyword updates are not being reflected on the ADP and/or do not surface in search results."
UNQTE
So if we re-keyword images now, prior to Aug 20, the search results won't be updated anyway?

sales are too slow, review is too quick

I started with IS exactly 2 years ago - can I still delete all the crap I uploaded there in the beginning or is it too late? I always meant to do it..
And do I get it right that it is already not possible to edit keywords? 
We should be able to delete images until 20th August. I deleted a couple of images today without problems. I also tried editing keywords and I was still able to (I dont know if 20th August is also the date for editing keywords though...).
Their message seem to say the edited keywords are already not reflected in the search anymore..

Is everyone seeing less and less PPs? Subs are going up for me, June was great in terms of subs, but PPs are very few, I know they are not done reporting but I already see how slow it goes..

As I'm the original Op...I think DT read this post and punished me...not a single sale this month.
Why?
Because they have to punish you!
The OP didn't mean to ask "why", it's their signature

Yes, and one particularly resourceful stock photographer managed to take a few snaps before they went extinct

Could be individually, but for me FT is still far behind. I do enjoy their nice commissions and higher RPD but I don't believe it will last too long (too good to be true )

I like Bigstock, it sells more for me than 123 and DT. I do not submit neither to Envato nor to P5 as I have only photos in my port. Alamy is currently dead for me (still hoping for that big sale one day  But I hardly ever have a day without a sale at Bigstock (about 230 photos online, travel), they are very easy to submit to, and their payout threshold is reasonable, so is their review process (instant). Although the 0,25$ commission is a bummer and I hardly ever get a credit sale.

DT rating on the right keeps on dropping (by about half compared to the previous month if i'm not mistaken), but downloads keep on growing - 6$ in the first week of July for me vs. 7$ for the whole June (248 images online), or is it something very very temporary?

Well, I will tell you this, I had a video sale for .28 cents or something and it seemed very odd so I emailed them. It took a couple of weeks to get back to me and they said it was some kind of glitch and credited me the $20 or so dollars for the video.
So definitely pay attention to video sales ... if I did not pay attention and look (daily) I may have never seen that "mistake" ...
I can only imagine how many glitches like that may go unnoticed, especially with the photos. I have quite a few that I saw downloaded but the Image Stats still show 0 and I'm not sure whether those earnings are accounted for or it's just the inaccuracy of the Stats.

A lot of "spam" threads lately  You have a few backgrounds that look nice, the rest is too repetitive and those big words vectors are very hard to look at.. You need way more efforts to expect nicer $ return.

I have less downloads since DPC's gone but higher RPD.

DT makes me an average of $180 per month with $236 last month and a little over 1400 images. So they can make money. I used to be exclusive years ago. I think I would only make $400 a month if I stayed. You cant make a living on DT alone but it's nice extra money.
Wow, great RPI for DT!

It's getting funny now - I'm having a zero Sunday on SS but just caught 8 downloads at DT (1 series by one buyer), all 0,35 subs, but still!

I got it too, the text was the same as yours but in Russian which is weird as all their mails to me are in English. Could it be indeed an attack? It came from [email protected] - has Shutterstock ever used this kind of email address before? Usually they use @shutterstock.com

I hate weekends

I think that start of summer, Copa America, Euro 2016 have impact on sales.
I hope thats the reason;)
I forgot about Copa America, could be it has some sort of impact on my downloads as most of my sales come from Central America.. downloads are more than 50% down for me since Friday (not that I was making fortune before that, but anyway )
