QuoteI have been very active on SS since March, I have 820 images in the portfolio and over 500 sales in these months, but no ED...is that because almost my entire portfolio is made of Editorials? Why else?

I suspect your editorial focus makes a big difference. As I understand EDs, they are needed for high print runs and for resale licenses - which almost always are commercial in nature. So an editorial images tends to restrict itself to news, comment and educational purposes - not normally high print runs or resale opportunities.

Not sure that is right, but on the flip side, you probably would get more single downloads from people who just want a particular image for an article.

Congrats! I'm having an incredible month at SS too. On target for a BME ... by a massive 28% above the previous high in March. Amazing.

Congrats to you too!  28% up on your BME?  That's impressive!

I'm not in BME territory yet, but if I have some more days like yesterday I definitely could be

BME already acheived at SS for October __ with another 6 days of the month still to come. Massive increase in OD and Single Image sales was responsible. Just wish other agencies could keep up.

Brillant! better then ever. plenty of ODs and ELs.

OK lets stir the pot and see what boils

OK rant on once more about all this BME BS!

How can this be anyone's BME if they have already had a BME at least once before? Care to explain?

At the very least it has to be your BMY not BME.

I mean if next year you have a better month then this months BME it cant be a BME because you already had a BME!

Hello!

OK rant over continue on.

Forums are slow dead and dull.

No you cannot trump your BME because you can only have one BME as is in any Business.

That is why it is supposed to be your BMY or BMTD it cannot not be ever if you have already had an ever because of the definition of ever.

See when a business is closing or selling itself out then they can go back across all of the records and then say that so and so month or year was their BME or BYE.

So until you are done and no longer a member with a port you can not have a BME until all of the books are up to date and you will no longer be doing this anymore and have removed everything for sale here.

Then you can look back at all of your records and only then can you find what is to be known as your BME.

OK on with your regularly scheduled programming.

Took me a minute to figure out what you meant, LOL.  Maybe you would be happier with BMSF?  (best month so far)

But to me, it is acceptable to say Best Month Ever because it is pretty much understood that it means best month ever YET.  If a better month comes along, that's your new BME.  Unless you want to be really nitpicky and contentious.

See then it becomes BMY or BMTD.
