Hi,
Recently i've been invited to contribute to Shutterstock's Offset. just went trough the contributor TOS. it seems images exclusively is not required and contributors are given 30% cut.  Any comments from participating contributors ?

I applied many months ago and never heard back, they truly are similar to Stocksy

congrats on getting accepted

yes, i did too with no news from Stocksy. For Offset, but instead of applying using normal microstock profile. i used my travel photos instead http://500px.com/malaysiaweddingphotographer.

I believe they won't be happy if I submit the same content from Shutterstock to Offset. Non exclusivity would be beneficial as I already have some editorial/travel from Inmagine and Alamy.

Ow you got accepted already, congratulations.

Thanks. From the email it seems that I will have to sign the TOS to be accepted. Anything may happen as it took me weeks to reply that email.  Its not such a big deal really 

congrats, i look forward to hearing how Offset performs.

Yes, would be great to hear results. especially compared to getty and others...

Indeed, I'd be really curious to know how OFFSET perform. They seem like a bit of a closed book at the moment. I've been accepted but am reluctant to send anything until I hear some positive vibes...

to be honest, i have some photos exclusively in getty+flickr. the result isn't promising. so i'm not gonna put much hope into anything
