I had a balance of about $20 which they would have taken from me when I requested to close the account.

When I replied to their request for reason for leaving and authorisation to remove my account, I gave one or two of many reasons but advised I do not authorise the removal of my account and that I want them to keep it open and hold my balance should I decide to return sometime in the future. Not that I will but at least that way they can't just pocket the money and instead, they'll have to keep accounting for it in their annual accounts / returns etc.

It worked for me. All my files can now only be downloaded as a premium licence. No more PLUS images.

I also exceeded the 10,000 downloads on 123rf today.
That's modest, but still contributes a percentage to my total sales. And that is more downloads than I have e.g. on dreamstime.

But never before have the revenues been worse than in 2022 on 123rf. It's getting less and less every year because the RPD and the downloads are going down the drain.

Anyone know how long the review turnaround is these days at 123RF? I uploaded over 2 weeks ago and still nothing.

Usually they need months! But in the Last weeks they were very quick. A few days.

Thanks, the last batch i sent came back a few days later with a generic description/keyword error, so then I reuploaded it and changed the description on each and now its been pending for 2 weeks.

123RF support doesn't get back to me either.

Now they disabled image editing. Can't access my folio. Probably the best option is to delete account.

123RF still exist?

I try to upload new images, and I having a lot of problems. FTP not working: - I upload images but then I can't process the images.
By Website nothing happens. I try diferente browsers and computers and it's the same.

Nobody answer emails. I think there are no more humans working on 123rf...

My folio and images are back and editable again. Probably temporary bug occurred.

Is something broken at 123rf again?
I haven't had a single sale since 11 November. I assume that the statistics are not working again.
Is anyone else affected besides me?

Thanks for the info, lenev.

I wrote to support yesterday - again. I did not receive an answer. But, as if by magic, a download came in again yesterday...

Huge drop in earnings last few months. Huge! I will wait few more weeks and if earnings not get recovered, I will delete all images.

I have here 2 sales in November, not really big sealer for me

Sales are 79% less than 2016. It's a steady path to nothing.

The same thing happens also to me... For several months now only one sale.... Very strange.
I'm trying to make that $50 and then close my account with them.

Most likely, the sales stats stalled again (perhaps selectively) at least since the beginning of November. As for December, just one sale reported so far.
