Where do you upload Ron, there are better sellers than BS for me outside the big four.

Mike, I am with SS, BS, CSP, 123, FT, DT, DP, I was thinking of PM but its to cumbersome. I couldnt get into IS, my photos are not big enough in TIF format for A, and I couldnt get into VR.

My top sellers are SS and 123 at the moment. DT, CSP and BS are really bad,

I like others already had some 5000 images at Bigstock, so was invited to the Bridge thing.
Always had a pay out, but have noticed since SS bought them sales have slumped some.
I have more images at BS than I do at SS because I started there first, now that I don't have to do anything I see it is much better ROI..

I would not be so sure about that. It seems like the few SS rejected I redid and they got accepted. If SS doesn't have 100% of the ones I submitted, I don't know which ones they don't have. But what is better, I think all mine have sold.

I have on one site, with nearly 600 vectors on CS I have 100% approval.

On BS my approval rating is 97.5%.

I have over 1000 vectors on BS and earn $5-$15 per month, I earn more on some sites with half that number of images.

For some unknown reason I keep uploading there.....

Yep, same boat as Baz...even my "famous" polar bear rarely sells over there, 10 sales so far and it is in the hundreds everywhere else... so something is wrong with their search engine...or something... I keep hoping that the buy by SS will change things but not so far... so ... why do I keep uploading there as well?
