He took the money from our pockets and placed it directly into his bank account. This is capitalism at its finest.
That's not capitalism, that company is a pirate ship, and i say that because they dissabled my account and get the money i have there, arguing nonsense. Beware about that company, Shitterstock is something like Alivava and the 40 thieves. Shitterstock is a big thief!

Hi, everyone. Someone knows an easy way to editing key words in photos already accepted in Adobe Stock? Please help me! I have to do one in one word. I'm changing some keywords in old photos more words. Sorry for my bad english.
I'm sorry but there isn't an easy way to do this. It's designed intentionally to be an exception use only and not a bulk editing tool for previously approved content.

Thanks!

Sadly the industry is dead, only if you are a contributor.
This is sad but true, as contributors, it is a bad time for us.

I've done it. After 15 years and six months I finally gave them the boot.
I hung in there so long because they were my first agency and taught me a lot, so I didn't like to part from them. Also, I felt that having put the effort into uploading the files, I might as well let them earn as much as possible. However, all the bizarre deals they have that seem to let my files go for fractions of a cent etc etc, and now the backdated refunds, leave me wondering whether I'm not giving away some stuff that people would pay for at other sites. Some of my work is sufficiently different for it not to be easily substituted by somebody else's - not a lot of it, maybe, but some.
With the latest earnings down to less than $30 this month (for about 6,000 files, I made more than $10 in my first month with just a few dozen shots) it's not a major loss. Maybe it will lead to an uptick in sales as Shutterstock to compensate.
For those wondering what happens to the balance of earnings that iStock holds, it seems they will be paid eventually. The form for terminating the agreement states: I confirm that I want to have any outstanding royalties issued on the time specified by my Agreement (most standard agreements specify any outstanding balance is to be issued within 90 days of your request to close your account)
How did you do it? I want to quit too! I have there about $70.

I wonder how people is still uploading content to Istock, I didn't continue uploading my images there, because I got $ 0,002 in some sales, worst than Shutterstock.
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak for me.
I'm still uploading to iStock, although I do have some low selling files I have at leat one $80-$100 dollar sale a month and my RPD is over 2.5 at the moment. My sales have dropped hugely certainly since the peak days of iStock but I make enough per month to make it worthwhile, and some new files sell, in fact my current best seller there is under 6 months old.
Fine! Nice for you!
That just sounds sarcastic. All I'm pointing out is that some people see uploading to IS as still worthwhile, and to counter your negative take on the place. I'm not saying it's perfect, far from it, but to see people sneering about it whilst selling themselves at other stock sites, none of which give a fair price, is a bit rich. I'm just pointing out the nature of my experience there, which I thought may be of interest and which doesn't warrant your sneery tone, thank you.
It's not sarcastic. Sorry,My intentions are not offend to you!

Just hungry slaves! like people that upload to Istock an d Freepik to earn $0,001. I think a mouse click worth more that.
There we go with the slave analogy again. LOL too funny!
Ok, looks you are very happy with 10 cents, enjoy it! LOL too funny!

I noticed that while we are protesting against injustice on the part of Shutterstock, there are people who continue to upload their images to Shutterstock. They couldn't even wait a month? Are they really nuts? And if the Second World War were going on, whose side would they be on?..
They are hungry slaves! >

And for anyone that thinks deleting their images is useless this is what most of the pictures on SS look like. Most of the database is just garbage they accepted to make it look big. If we can delete around 10 million of quality pictures it will really hurt SS in the long run. Buyers will stop getting subscription if they can't find anything usable.
Well this kind of photos could be useful for someone?

Freepik is like Istock but worse. It seems this companies like to pay few cents and people who collaborate with content there enjoy this. I wonder how people do this.

Shutterstock has flaming lost their mind! .10 cents and image and the level resets to that every January.
Old news. Talk about us Istock too.
