I propose to rename this board from microstockgroup to microstockconspiracygroup�

Nothing conspirative about simple programming. If I owned stock agency of that magnitude, I'd do the same, saves quite a few bucks monthly and creates a bank credit effect without interest.

Shutterstock is stirring their algorithms to spread sales out among contributors.  The idea being to continue to take in money from sales, but not have to pay out as much, because no one contributor will make enough for a payout for a long time.

You left SS still. How do they make money from spreading sales or delay payouts? I make payout every month.

Commissions owed are not an asset they are a liability. Sales commissions appear on the income statement, typically listed as an operating expense. The income statement starts out with total revenues, then separates out the cost of goods sold to provide the gross profit from sales. Below gross profits, you list your operating expenses, which include wages and commissions due to employees.

Accrued commissions, those that are owed to employees but have not been paid out, also appear on the balance sheet as a liability.

The agencies can't use this money, it's not an asset it's a liability. That's why they have lowered payout limits so they have less liability. There's no gain to capping low earning people, below the $35 limit. It's a empty claim with no logic or advantage to the agency.

Try to get rid of one and another will show up. It's easy to make claims and find impossible or illogical conspiracy. Then anyone who explains why it's not true gets tagged as a ghostbuster and ridiculed. What should happen is people could remember who spreads these false rumors, and tag them as unreliable gossips.

Did shutterstock remove Best match?

Still here in the UK.

I t looks like this for me

Nothing like what my page looks like. Let me guess, new interface rolling out. Best Match is usually the same as Popular, but popular isn't popular as any of us would imagine it could be. If what you see is the future, hardly a loss, unless someone made a search and wants best match, or most popular. That's different from, just looking at my portfolio and seeing best match, asking myself, to what? There's no search term just my whole collection. Nonsense either way.

Now maybe they can fix most popular to be something that makes a little sense, instead of an unsold new photo being on the first page.

what's going on with ss, two days with 0 sales this is anormal

SS announces Approved video clips will now be visible and accessible via the Catalog Manager. This will allow you to perform all the functions currently available for images (sorting and filtering), except for creating Sets. We can edit keywords, change thumb, all kinds of new editing.

First six messages are complaints that they can't create sets. Nothing good or change for the better is without a scream of microstockcomplainersgroup...

I have a cap, it says NY Yankees on it.
