No I'm afraid not apart from buying them perhaps. I guess you lost the originals? Though you could send an email to Alamy and see if they could help.

My thoughts exactly: I gave up emailing Alamy about a year ago after they came back and said they were having legal problems with said distributor. Which probably means the "distributor" went bust or just refused to pay. These payment terms they hand out are beyond belief sometimes

Sale from 16 March 2018 ~ over two years still not cleared, thankfully only a distributor sale around $3.00

Could have something to do with the Covid-19 pandemic and all the business furloughs/closures over the last couple of months

https://www.alamy.com/contributor/faqs/payment/?section=8 I quote "We can pay you in USD, GBP or EUR via PayPal, Skrill or funds transfer." Perhaps you should email Alamy to get a full answer contributors@alamy.com

OK do you a. have any sales? b. have those sales "cleared"? c. is your total sales cleared value over your minimum payout?

Yes 6th April in the UK

No April fools day has been officially cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-8172471/Brits-say-Aprils-Fools-day-cancelled-2020s-one-big-joke.html

Oh not to worry I have a washing machine 🤣 💩

I found some toilet roll today 🤣

I checked out the so called assistance for self employed people and it is basically nothing except apply for Universal Tax Credit https://www.theguardian.com/business/2020/mar/20/self-employed-coronavirus-crisis-sick-pay-redundancy-benefits

GPS co-ordinates are not supported (AFAIK), the location field is for you to type in a place/country i.e. London, United Kingdom

I wouldn't really call it [Luminar] subscription software you can pay once and continue using it forever, as opposed to Adobe products where if you cease paying the subscription you lose access.

I use CS3 and Lightroom 6 plus Luminar 4. I'd say Luminar 4 is pretty good at what it does which sky replacements and some basic editing/sharpening/adding filter effects. However I'd say its not a total replacement for Lightroom or Photoshop as it is somewhat slow and does not appear to offer cataloging and keywording like Lightroom/PS and the flexibility of Photoshop. I'd say keep it as a useful additional tool either as a standalone or plugin

Technically speaking most of the others forums specifically do not allow discussion of other agencies but people get round that. The contributors usually limit it to "which agency is best to submit to" type questions and how Ad*be is doing so much better than SS and how bad rates are at I.S. Alamy doesn't seem to figure a lot as they perceive it as a low seller, too regional/UK centric or Live news oriented. That is of course when they aren't tearing eachother to pieces 🤣
