Sales are ok, subs keep coming, a couple of videos each month and even OD/SOD ranging from 7-56$. But I didn't get a 28classic EL for 6 months!!!

Any thoughts? Ideas?

They changed the terms for EL's, which killed them. They allowed much larger print runs with a standard license. I miss them.

Sad to hear that.

Yeah, haven't had one since early July. Was wondering what they did to lose them.

I'm rather happy about them. I had a record number in August: 9 + 2 in Sept, so far (from about 600 photos in my port)

I've got two this month.

Jo Ann Snover · « **Reply #6 on:** September 15, 2015, 14:34 »

I've had three so far in September; had 2 in August. They're not dead, but perhaps not as frequent.

One this month which is 100% increase on last month.

I should link to the beginning of the following post but this quote made me laugh.

I had one last month and one on Sept. 1st but before that there was a drought. Overall I am averaging one EL about every 350 DLs - not sure how it has changed over time though.

I guess they are rightly termed a "classic" now...

Speaking of the devil, some Australian bought my 3rd September EL

Sebastian Radu · « **Reply #16 on:** September 16, 2015, 00:34 »

Only one this year

Have four so far this month and a couple of single-sales. It's all the ODs that have vanished.

Regular business regarding ELs for me, 3 son far this months and 8 in August, but ODs have become rare as unicorns

Steveball · « **Reply #19 on:** September 16, 2015, 04:44 »

12 months since the last one and virtually no SODs. Or ODs. Or subs!

Cesar · « **Reply #20 on:** September 16, 2015, 05:01 »

Just another way in which they've quietly and indirectly cut royalties. And there will be more.

In video too, sales for me seem to revolt around 15-22 usd commissions in 8/10 sales and very often even lower than 15usd.
Haven't had a commission beyond 23.70 since April (apart from 4K sales),in fact for me ss is the site right now with the lowest commissions amongst p5,vb and ds making this by far my lowest earning agency.
Volume kind of makes up but not really.
6 months ago i was making almost the same from them with almost half the sales.
Thats how you reduce commissions without dropping prices.Well done....
