I signed several days ago for a trial account and today found that my images are included in their lightbox and templates demo and are available for not watermarked downloads.
I sent e-mail to them and took a screenshot and currently deleting all uploads. To pay money which they want and just to give away for free the images? Nonsence. Damage. How it is possible?

That's interesting. Waiting for their explanations as well... ???

Glitch of business model, or software or all toghether - i am waiting from them too. I found this following a link to see new templates. As normal there were images which they used before (and hope agreed with the author or bought), and absolutely not expected that they will be then mixed with my fresh uploads, with watermark old, because i did a change to test. Clicking download button it was possible to get not watermarked image. In my trial site settings i didn't allow free doanload. I deleted all my uploads, but after refresh the image was still there. Saved a screenshot as a souvenir. Url was from template demo, not from my account. Really demo should not be mixed with no warning to user.

Received an answer from Jon that they do not distribute my images, and i could see that because i was logged in. They apologize for the worry caused.
Anyway i wanted to see a demo, and i was on demo part of the site with their images. My images were visible as a part of this demo, with no warning for that. I cannot know what others can see and which functionality left active. Still need to think.

Try logged out and in another browser (preferably one you can delete cache, history and cookies from).

Thank you Shady Sue. I added some images back and tested with another account. Was something changed or not but now it proposes to contact first before download. Currently checking trial at photodeck. For both the same problem - cannot find how to remove social buttons. They are on every page, by default and i don't want copies go everywhere. Didn't hear from somebody that this helps to sell. Photodeck site sure looks better on all types of devices.

Thank you to all who sent messages. After comparing of 2 platforms i decided to continue with photodeck. The list of "must have" and "should have" for photoshelter was too big and even didn't come to testing of pricing system, because for this they need to introduce my card data during trial period. Some reading online prevented me to do this.
