I guess there's two levels of being ignored - one as a contributor and the second with the "launching soon" e-mail :) No e-mail for me.

I just found out that there is a buyer email and  a seller email, I think I signed up for the buyer email twice, lol. I just signed up for seller email

Am I correct that that option is new? I noticed it yesterday but I really don't think it was there before. No idea whether I submitted an email as a buyer or contributor but either way I think its doubtful they'd be interested in my work.

I wonder if that box (Curious?) arrived just a few days or if it is there since "day 1"

No, I think it's new, I'm sure it wasn't there a week or so ago, and then it was when I checked back a couple of days ago.

That's what I thought, it was just one writable field for 'more information'.
I haven't have an email, but wouldn't expect them to be interested in my work; nevertheless I'm still curious.  ;)

Got the email and sent a link to a selection from my portfolio.  Hope that will get me in but I wont be surprised if it doesn't.

is this going to be only celebrity photos?
why does he have Billy Bob Thornton on his landing page?

You get the mail even if you used the old submit form. I used 2 mails both get it.

Thank you for your interest in Stocksy. We're getting closer to our launch date or March 25th, 2013 and we can't wait to show you what we've got.

If you're interested in being a contributing artist, please reply to this email with a link to your portfolio (500px, flickr, etc) and we might send you an invitation.

Sincerely,
Bruce Livingstone, CEO

i must confess, the "we might" bit is a touch arrogant, but I guess v much in keeping with the industry.

I don't think that is arrogant.  They are obviously just going to start with select people and that is just warning you that the fact that you send a link doesn't mean that you will be accepted.  I will be gutted if they don't accept me but that's life.  Their site, their rules.

ok, not arrogant. and you don't need to preach to me, I am from a small business family, so I get it (the whole "millions of unpaid hours to start your own business"). I'm not a supporter of Aussie Industrial Relation laws that seem to win/lose each election, I'm all for the entrepreneur calling the shots to their own business (in start-up as well as 10 years later)

however, even me - married to a Sth African! - found that wording a touch arrogant.

I am curious.. have you noticed that they want to see portfolios on non-microstock sites? What did you send them? Portfolios on microstock sites or 500px/flickr?

I have sent them FAA and SS so that they can see what I am up too as SS has more stocky photos and FAA has more concepts.

Nobody is getting ignored as a contributor, because the e-mail asks for a link to one's portfolio.  So they don't even look at your images before sending the e-mail.  Are you sure you sent a working e-mail address without typo's when you hit the "I am curious" button?
