7 sales for $292 with the first two accounting for most of it. Last year I had no sales in February!

six weeks in and gross revenue is already 25% of the 2019 total. I hope that continues - but who knows.

Yes, a good move for them - as for us birds on the bottom rung of the roost.......

Sales down 5% in number but up over 10% in value. Bit disappointing given all the images I have added but a few lessons learnt from looking at others results. Onwards ever onwards. A happy and prosperous new year to all.

I have only just picked up on this so thanks for the heads up. Having checked I see two new lovely stars have appeared without my noticing and I now have 5 stars 😲. I have had no fails for over a year - some 30 submissions with almost 600 images in that time. Have Alamy decided to allow self regulation (probably with just the odd check-up) for past good conduct for those of us trying to keep a good record hence the modificationn of the star system.

A great month, quite a few calendar licences. 12 sales for $458 gross.

I think we knew....

And on the next batch I hit finish upload and IMMEDIATELY got passed QC! Amazing, thanks Alamy; what is going on?

Passed in under 10 minutes, thanks Alamy!

I have just had my best ever month with 13 sales. Total sale revenue this year to date now exceeds the last calendar year with number of sales down by 10%. Perhaps December will bridge that small gap 🤞

If it does then they will lose most of my work - possibly all 40% of RM is bad enough. Will not be worth the bother any more.

10 sales in the last month - very high for me and while the number of images sold this year is down on last the revenue is up.

🙄

The MD of another image library told me earlier this year that "The XX (UK Daily Newspaper) has an image carousel across it’s outlets that uses 600 images very 4 hours, so 2400 images per day........" hence the low prices. Enjoy a share of the bulk usage seems to be the message here. 😥

Wow! Looks like the dam has broken, three sales for under $60 in total in May, June, and July. Three sales this week for $$, $$, $$$.
