Hahaha, Newsfocus, we don't really know the exact location either :)
We're just guessing :)
And you're right.
On second look, maybe The 3 Wise Men weren't sold in Mexico after all. Possibly Florida :)
Stats for the last hour :
Bulk comes from Europe and the USA.
Nothing in Russia, China, India, Japan, or Australia.
But interestingly enough - quite a few (4 or so) from Africa! It looks like South Africa (the country).

It's a new toy and I'm still excited :)
Memory wise - yes, true, seems a bit intensive.
Cathy, where is that Acceptance Rate section? Was it there before? Where is it?
Back to playing :)

I don't know where it is. I clicked the feedback tab and left some feedback and one of the questions they ask is about how you rate the Acceptance Rate section. I could not find it.

Aha Cathy, OK. I'll add this to question to my feedback as well.

Darn!
Nothing from Ireland!
Go the Irish :)
Hahaha, back to playing :)

Asked for RPD, I do not see acceptance, wished to fit one 1600x1200 screen but maybe I need bigger monitor :-)

I dont know if I like it or not. Its just different. Now the Map I like.. just wish it gave a little more info.
Some sites say they give you a crown but in reality, it is just a polished toilet seat.

You have little circle on the corner of photo to show you where it was sold...

Not sure how useful the map is. I think the novelty of seeing where the last few downloads came from will wear out.


If someone, unlike me, is a heavy duty stocker who likes to follow trends, it might just be more usefull than you first think.

I added some feedback and one question asked about the Acceptance Rate section, but I didn't even see that. Can someone point the way?

I was wondering the same, cannot find it..

curious the totals are with taxes but on stats total is without them..

Wow, have you seen this?
Place your mouse over the top of the graph bars.
Look what you get! :)  
And it works on both graphs.
Nice :)

Thanks for pointing that out...I did not play enough I guess. One of my comments was I wish I could see the missing months so I would know where the peaks and valleys fell, but that is even better!

I still wish they had the following features (or maybe I just can't find them?):

There is no easy way of searching for a particular image and see how much income that image has generated.
I'd also like to find out my top earners on the site without having to add up sales from different pages (25-a-day + On demand + EL)

Instead of "downloads this month" I'd rather see "Account balance" (Yes, I know where to find my "account balance", but I find it much more interesting than "downloads this month", the amount of dowloads just reminds me how little money we get for a download :( )

I think this is not available as of now. Should be added in my opinion.

The month's balance is in the upper right hand corner next to the amount of this month's downloads.

What exactly do you want to see when you say "account balance"? Your all time total?

I really think that SS can take a step forward and do something BIG.. what is it?

I would say pick everything from contributors and make them.. then we would have a DESIGN settings (whatever) where we would pick the stuff that we really want to see on the home submitter page.. we could also place this "selected options" where we like most, doing our own design..

I like it.  Fun new toy and had a good laugh.  My breakfast burrito sold in Mexico.  LOL

I guess it's useful for everyone that doesn't get to a payout monthly, and the account balance helps to see how much is still left to payout ;)

I like it the new page but I would like to have back the thumbs for latest approved and links to the newest forum topics...

Looks good! Need to use it more to decide if I like it.

Its live here!  and I think its BRILLANT!!  its really international, shows the world, etc, theyve done a great job on this one! credit where credit is due.

Other agencies should take a long good look and LEARN.

No, I would like to see how much money is on my account currently, I think the corrext SS term is "Gross Earnings" on the Dowload Stats page. I have set a high payout limit to get a payment once every three months, so I would like to see how much my next payment will be. I don't say it's important, just more important than the "Downloads this month".

Oh I see, yeah that shouldn't be a problem to be implemented. Don't know though if the majority will be asking for it.

I agree it's all very nice but call me sceptical I'd rather they spent the time, money and effort into increasing sales rather than dibble around with the contributor back end, personally it did everything I needed to know before - i.e. what's sold and for how much.

The old info is still available when you click Download stats (under Stats, at the left site down under)

I like it too, but using a pop-up thumbnail of the download when hoovering over the map should be more handy. When having a lot of downloads in a relative small area of the world makes that all thumbnails lay over each other.

The best part of this is the one with "Earnings from new content". Also the approval rate would be good if they'll include it (as they ask about it in that feedback page). The map is useless, in my opinion. But one of the best things is that the latest forum headlines are gone, and I'm sure I'm not the only one to be glad about this.
