Yesterday it felt like I had travelled back in time....

Old and new photos being sold.
A smattering of OODs.
A smallish SOD.
A steady trickle of dls all day.
Nothing spectacular really - indeed, fairly normal up till about 18/24 months ago - but - ah - the memories!

Reminded me why this used to be such fun - and it wasn't because it gave me the opportunity to spend hours on end in my cold back bedroom taking and editing pics of mundane things.....for next to nothing!

Herrrumph!

Yes those days comes once in a blue moon!  even so its a very pale memory of what once was such a good and stable agency.

Same here quite a good day now down today.

I have a calculator that estimates how much I'll make out of SS by the end of the month and SS is keeping track of that estimate it's uncanny.

A few sales come along to bump earnings back to the estimate for the end of the month then all stop. 

Quite clearly there's manipulation going on with sales

that has been the "conspiracy" theory many months back since going public. but some fanboy or girl came to say we're imagining things , as usual LOL.
but yes, you see it, esp when you get a large amount of dls or SOD at the start of the month,
then, it's flip... long lists of zero days.
i always thought it best to see a big last minute earning come in at the end of the month, so there is
no time to flip off the switch.

it's not a silly theory. smart shareholders say, "give everyone some earning, and everybody happy!!!"
why give only a handful of top sellers. connect this to the 40 % loss old top sellers have been reporting
i say flip the switch is definitely very real at ss
...
except for the fanboy or girl who believe in Elvis and say we've gone gone "flipping" mad!!!

Congratulations on the good day(s).

I used to check stats several times a day with great anticipation.   It's been years since that was rewarding.  Now I just check once a week or so. Hasn't been good news.  Halfway through the month and I'm nowhere near half my average payout.

Maybe this time they've gone too far with " give everyone some earnings" there ar lots and lots of very unhappy people small and big contributors and in every single forum even some photographic forums where they just happen to discuss stock agencies. Bad advertising indeed.
