Stop whining already and just quit. We got it by now. MS is dead, your earnings are down 50% and new files don't sell.

He's been writing the same for five years. Might be right, but it's like telling someone that they aren't 18 anymore, when they are 30. We already know that. Just like we know that the whole Micro Market has changed since years ago. Trads are no more. Competition is uploading 1 million new photos a month. Why discuss and argue the obvious with some slant or conspiracy. The market has changed, the competition has changed, the old days are gone for years now, not months.

5years??  blimey Ive only been active in this forum for 2 years or even less. didnt know the market have changed thought it was the same like back in 2005. I wasnt even aware of SS going public until I joined this forum  so steady on buddy.

Me too!

A picture is worth a thousand words

Take your best month and your worst month/2 and you're in the average. Where's the problem?

The problem is that I want my average to be equal to my best month 

Overall worst month since July 2015.  SS was below monthly averages for the past five years back through 2013.  FT strong but only about 1/3 of SS.  BMY on DP and Stockxpert (anybody else still have images there?).  WMY on DT and Canva.  DT very bad - only about 1/3 of the average from 2015.  Canva was the biggest disappointment.  Last year they really made up the slack from declining sales elsewhere but this year they are tanking with each month worst than the last - July was only about 1/3 of the average from last year.  I assume it is just competition from other contributors - too bad, wish all the competition would just go away!
