Good for you!  I'm not even close to that, not even if I add up ODD's and SOD's, but that's mainly because my ODD's seem to be slowly dying since the last Most Popular change  :'(

We seem to be on separate servers, Ron -- when your sales go up, mine go down.
The few ODs that I have are the small and medium variety.
My DLs are normal but dollars are WAY down.

Same here, and they are all at the 1.24 rate which is also strange

I'm all tied up now, top of the 1st, bases loaded. Need an EL to knock it out of the park

Yes. An EL would make it BME for me most likely

An odd (no, not ODD) month for me. Long stretches of no sales after a couple of bonanza* months. I think they've tweaked the search algorithm again haven't they?





*Bonanza months for me are probably completely different to bonanza months for you.

They tweaked something as my previous best seller went from upper half of page one to top of page 2.  (it has  been slowly sliding down from the first line of page one ever since it was kicked off of relevant (for at least the first 10 pages or so)). Unfortunately this is one of the seasons for sales for it, so this might be the end for that file. oh well, it was a nice run while it lasted.

Last weekend was particularly low, but it also seems like more variability in sales this month than previously. Almost like they are moving to a DT sort of system where they turn various ports on and off for subs and OD sales.

Yep... does seem that way.

Only thing down for me this month are SODs. Had a decent amount last month. I think they dropped the Single part of it. I don't see it as an option anymore. The smallest package I see now is 2 images for $29. They used to have one for $19.

please tell us where you are seeing those packages, I can only see online subs, els and ods plans, nothing on sods, from a discussion the other day we got to the conclusion it is impossible to know if there is even a standard in terms of prices, just too many different amounts that contributors are having

the 19 dollar package was ODDs  if I am correct. I agree, SODs are negotiable.

Yeah, no SOD for me for over a month, but an increase in ODDs, so maybe something changed? $90 was better than $2.85

No. If you sold one, it was recorded in the column marked Single & Other Downloads. "And" is a key part there. That column included the singles which were based on a fixed percentage of $19 according to your tier, and other images that were sold under various licenses that could range from a little bit to a lot. The "Other Downloads" is the part that varies.

They changed it this month to two images for $29, and I'm not sure it's a worldwide thing. They're probably testing it like they did Single license sales.

I find it by clicking on an image like I'm a buyer and those are the options it gives me. I'm sure it varies by country.

you can find the amount that the buyer paid (making some maths) but there isn't information before asking SS for that license, if so please show me a printscreen, I really cannot find it
