Steve Hyde Posted August 16, 2022 Author Share Posted August 16, 2022 It’s been a funny old month on Alamy. This old ‘Free Assange’ editorial image went for just below mid $$ today. I’ve had lots of low sales then a toy image sold for not far short of $$$, for use in a book. I sold another toy image, the same day, for $0.10 but that was refunded a few days later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelal Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Reference the above, I was not sure how to get an image into the message, hence the small picture. I am pretty shocked that a picture used worldwide and in national newspapers is only worth $0.15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is it is actually worth a lot more, but unfortunately the agencies have devalued stock photography to such a point that it is no longer viable.

It truly does upset my stomach. I used to check some of my newly uploaded images to see positions, but just the thought of it makes me recoil these days. Shows how badly I wanted to know what Edo’s meal was. Edited August 17, 2022 by Betty LaRue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can they stick with a search page that makes us sick???? I know we are wonderfully unique but there must be buyers who are driven away also.

The main one is when we have a look at someones Portfolio with the formerly know "Blue Number", it creates a Filter in user name which remains in future searches.

rickygui Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 (edited) For now I can't even consider stock images generate proper passive income anymore. $0.25 cents revenue. How many cents am I getting and hope no refund 1 year later? Brace ourself, more zero to come. TBH it still thrill me to see an image sold.
