  1. I don't understand. Do you mean you already had representation in Croatia, Slovenia and Bulgaria? Or you just want to exclude these countries on the fact that you expect them not to pay a fair fee? wim
  2. If you know how, yes. I could demonstrate it with one of yours 😁. But not with one click, no. wim
  3. That's about the same size as here on Alamy if you know where to look. One of mine 408x320: and 284x470: wim edit: I didn't know this could be found though: 640x447

  5. Well done! How many have been licensed? (Not your total, but how many individual images.) wim
  6. Nah that can't be it, we just haven't found the exclusive button yet. Besides I think I was right, but because I have not found that button yet I cannot prove it. wim
  7. So it's about something else? That would be quality then. It tells us that the quality of the images that are exclusive is just not as high as the quality of all the non-exclusives: the agencies; the micro-stockers. wim
  8. The Eternal Light Peace Memorial commemorating the 1863 Battle of Gettysburg. Personal Use. US fee. wim
  9. Last time when we were at this point, I inserted a link to this video by Adam Savage (one of the MythBusters) which I like a lot. wim
  10. Maybe check your captions and maybe even your keywords again. Some are duplicates while the images show different things: a car in the caption, but a motorcycle in the image; one Norton in the caption, but another in the image. They're in some museum. These are the only ones I've checked and they may be the only ones that have wrong duplicates of course. Normally I'm not the one that finds the wrong needle in the haystack in one blink of an eye. (My wife is. 😎) wim
  11. What I would like to see is what perceived problems these changes should remedy. And: what is the business case? Does the PA contract have the same terms? If not, why not? wim
  12. X-2581-457-1 Sony Lens Assy 121,20 € Near mint SEL55210 lenses go for less than that on Ebay. Especially from Japan, some with free shipping. Japanese sellers tend to be pretty honest. (100€ is $147CAN currently.) wim
  13. Facebook Menlo Park. 4 times the exact same: Worldwide Editorial, Editorial Website, 10 year low $. wim
  14. Yes, but it must work, why otherwise do it? Or it's a slight mishap, think The Sorcerer's Apprentice. I am still convinced this must be a platinum contributor. wim
  15. Click on the blue number next to your post that says: Images: 29039 Send your client the link. Or: right-click on that blue number and go to copy link. wim
  16. It must work otherwise the contributor Library Book Collection (or agency) would not put 1,342,790 images up. I think you've spotted one of the platinum contributors that the new scheme is aimed at. wim
  17. Still a PR nightmare. So I went back and looked at some other stock agencies. Because of the rules here I will not go into the details. I would say: go see/click for yourself. In general: Alamy doesn't look too bad among the others. There is one agency that has 4.5 stars/Excellent with 187 reviews however. It's a pity I cannot name it, because I'm sure the roaring laughter of many contributors would be heard over here. 😂 😂 wim
  18. Not without seeing a 100% version. Because of the higher dof I would say the latter is the smaller sensor. But it could just as well be the higher contrast, that only suggests a higher dof. Besides it's probably not with the same aperture. Because at the best aperture for the 35mm, the tiny RX100's sensor would be well into it's diffraction zone. wim
  19. We once had a little spider in one of our sensors. Took us weeks to figure that one out. We suspected the neighboring cat first, because the first or second night after the alarm had been installed it had managed to sneak in during the daytime and had stayed out of sight when our wing in the building was closed for the night.. In the mean time we got penalties and even (temporarily) kicked out of the insurance. That was after we had the alarm go off at half past ten each night because that was when the heating switched off and the curtains that hung over it began to sway. That took us a week to figure out. This was a really expensive security firm with it's own alarm monitoring center. After the spider we got thousands of euros computer damage from some punks that had broken in a couple of floors above us and had turned open the fire hoses. We had no sensors for water. The good thing: the insurance paid for everything. Even for being a week out of business. And they sent in a salvage team. Nobody ever tried to break into our wing. But I had to do the 3,3km / 2 miles by bike or car in record time many times because of all the alarms. After a while we divided alarm duty between two of us. This was a studio for traditional graphic arts and computer training center we had until in the end subsidies ran out after the dotcom bubble had burst. Oh and the remedy: a can of compressed air for the smoke alarms. wim
  20. Not even selfies! Let's try this link once more, I don't know why it keeps messing up. John Mitchell's link has lots of selfies and older people taking photos. wim
  21. Alamy wants us to do this: https://twitter.com/alamy/status/1392389342920953856 Or at least to make photos of it: the lightbox from the tweet. wim
  22. Maybe Alamy is not as popular as it once was. Last week I stumbled upon these reviews of Alamy on Trustpilot: https://www.trustpilot.com/review/alamy.com 2 stars is usually barge pole territory for me. wim
  23. Merci. Je pense qu'Adobe fonctionne différemment d'Alamy. Et que votre travail convient mieux à Adobe. Je ne savais pas qu'Adobe acceptait les images éditoriales avec des personnes et des biens sans autorisation. Peut-être que je devrais y jeter un œil aussi. 😁 Peut-être qu'Adobe traduit les mots-clés d'autres langues en anglais et vice-versa. Ici, l'anglais est le seul standard et il est traduit dans les différentes langues des différents sites web comme alamy.es ; alamy.de ; alamyimages.fr ; alamy.it ; alamy.pt (il y en a peut-être d'autres). My guess is that Adobe works differently from Alamy. And that your works suits Adobe better. Maybe Adobe translates keywords from other languages into English as well as the other way around. Here English is the sole standard and it gets translated into the different languages of the different websites like alamy.es; alamy.de; alamyimages.fr; alamy.it; alamy.pt (there may be others). wim
  24. Congratulations Gen! Seattle Central Library by Rem Koolhaas Chicago Jay Pritzker Pavilion in the snow. By Frank Gehry. Helsinki Kaisa House - the main library of Helsinki University- by Vesa Oiva wim
