formerly snappyoncalifornia 32 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 (edited) I think we all must do what we must do in order to help publishers, designers, and the photo buying world to survive, especially gig workers many of whom have no medical insurance (yeah, I'm in the USA). If these people, our clients, go out of business then we will circle the drain with them. Speaking strictly for myself, I say discount the images to the point where Alamy is barely breaking even as long as it helps them stay afloat. Better they should become loyal buyers at the back end of this nightmare then we all go down the tubes together. Edited April 23, 2020 by formerly snappyoncalifornia Link to post Share on other sites
Filip Jedraszak 0 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Does this include clearing a payment and then after 5 days or so un-clearing it? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

David Priddis 0 Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Is any one else having problems with the web uploader? It manages to upload 2 to 3 images and drops out for me. I have no other internet connection problems. Zoom etc. work fine. Link to post Share on other sites
