yes the new page is real nice but... I would have preferred a raise on my earnings instead.

Even the latest video sales show on the map. That's great!

I don't like the map. It takes up a lot of space and doesn't really help me much. It's a nice thing to have, perhaps on a separate page but I would prefer more useful stats, like some of the other sites give us.

I agree, the map takes up too much prime real estate. It would be nice to be able to turn it off, or have a modular design on the contributor page, where you decide which elements you want and where.

Plus the map is useless, unless of course I'm mistaken and:

One of the biggest design companies in the world is based in the Ascension Islands
Or some of the largest internet providers are based there.

Because I get a hell of a lot of sales from the middle of the South Atlantic ocean

LOL pretty cool, I want one badly there

Overall I like the page. I would find it helpful if we could zoom in the map or be able to click on the images and get a listing with image stats like number of times sold and countries/states that it was licensed in.

I find it very cool, especially the map. No, it's not really usefull but definitely interesting, it's a nice toy. I respect that SS still can be innovative. And there is one thing I respect even more: they are an agency who is still trying to satisfy their contributors. Other agencies do not care how unfriendly, buggy and difficult is their upload page and their contributor site. Other agencies are making your/our life more and more difficult every year. But look at SS they are trying to give something to us, to contributors not to the buyers!

Nice toy, I'm amused. I'd love to have individual stats for images, nothing fancy, just times downloaded and total earnings? Downloading the excel and digging through it, can be tedious.

Thanks for explaining why I had those sales in Africa, I was wondering about that?

I agree with Mike about the last few downloads feature. It seems pretty memory intensive and not particularly useful.

Well, I have to take back the above^^. I'm actually having a great time with this feature! It's a lot of fun to see where in the world the images are sold. Can't seem to tear my eyes away until it's done it's thing...

Red Dove · « **Reply #60 on:** November 15, 2010, 10:25 »

No sales in Greenland yet.

Slow and not much practical use - but still fun to see your stuff pop up...I wonder who bought one of my xmas shots in Saudi Arabia?

WarrenPrice · « **Reply #61 on:** November 15, 2010, 10:47 »

I like it too. Much praise to SS. Wonder can I exchange mine for a raise?

Map is novel and interesting but I don't see much real use except for bragging about that sale in Vladivostok. I do confess to feeling rather godlike in seeing my work zipping around the world.

I don't get any more info by mousing over the small circle on the image. Better idea for the space: 1. A running total of sales of those new downloads along with their number of sales per month.

The overall earnings is helpful, showing my sales performance over time.

The earnings from New Content: Nice useful idea showing productivity of my latest work. I'd add pictures of, say, 5 of my hottest selling images from that graph.

And please, SS, make it easy to find out how much each of my images are selling. I want to sort my images quickly by date, total sales, and downloads per month. The current method is too time to be of value.

Did I mention that the most useful single tool in microstock is IS's Downloads per Month calculation.

hi do a search thread here, there is a script written by a user 'plrang' here, i am using google chrome, and when i moved the cursor over the images i can see how many sales that images had sold and how many on-demands, what is the RPD..how many days it had online.

Within the U.S., does the map actually point to individual states/cities where images were downloaded?

It's interesting to see where the images are going. Not sure it will effect my shooting/uploading though.

I have chrome and maybe I'll install the plugin again for that. It's a nice piece of work.

Hey, look, one of my photos "sold" in Australia!
