So near -yet so far. How's this for a close finish to my month - just 1 cent more is all I needed 😪. To be fair, this is a very low sum compared to my usual but hopefully it will return to good times soon. Current Cleared Balance: $50 We'll pay you once your balance is over $50

Totally agree with Ed's post. Well said. I run three forums and I'm very strict with Sniping/Trolling etc. With me it's one strike and they're out - no messing. That might sound like 'Big Brother', but they are my forums and the rules are clear when people join. The perps know when they are out of line so are not surprised when they are no longer a member. A recurring comment that appears in the posts is how pleasant and friendly my forums are.

Another great blog Edo

I wonder who I'm unpopular with? I can take it 😄😄

Great contributions to image finds lately. A big thank you to all of you who contribute. Always my first port of call on the forum - I live in hope John

I would have warmed that black circular cover up before attempting to pull it off like happened in the video. However, the video did show what a masterpiece of electronic design is inside the little RX100s. If they had moulded a much needed grip in the case it would have given a bit more room for some electronic wizardry.

Could it be that Alamy averages out the rate over the month.

A bit late to this thread - not sure how I missed it. I usually charge via a third party charger but occasionally in-camera. Batteries have not been an issue for me with my RX100's. One thing I have noticed is when the fully charged light comes on, if I take the battery out and put it straight back in, it continues to charge for a while longer. John

Hi Joern You don't say when last year you had the sales. If it was, say November/December, then that's not a excessive time to wait for payment. However, if it was much earlier in the year then obviously it needs following up. I've been with Alamy since 2010 and I find them 100% trustworthy. John

Strange how you lose track when you're retired. I had no idea it was a leap year! Good chance of moving over the payment threshold

All is not lost. Some small sales have come through. Zooms are up by two My CTR is at .86 Cleared Sales are moving up slowly but still need another $4 to clear the payment threshold. (I'm usually way above that) And there's still a day to go!

Thank you Losdemas. that was the information I was after. Was handy for checking if you had moved up a band. I can't find that info on the DACS pages now to see what the current banding is for books and magazines. John

Does anyone know what the increment levels are for Books and Magazines are for moving up in payments?

A bit like my pet ant 😪

Update: Alamy has saved me just before I landed on the rocks - 4 sales have come in 🙂. Zooms have stopped dropping but still still sitting at a low 20. John
