Title: Email About Contributor Survey
Post by: Sean Locke Photography on May 09, 2017, 11:11
Just got an email about a survey on the contributor process.  It's from shutterstockmail.com , which seems a little dodgy, although it does lead to a google docs survey.  Is that domain really SS?

Reading the terms, if you win the $100 you automatically give SS permission to use your likeness for promotional purposes.

Looks legit to me. Plus, they don't ask for your password...only your email.

So here's the feedback for them: they need to do a better job keeping their contributor site open.  Already twice this past week, the site went down.

Wasn't there just a big hack a couple of days ago with google docs?
