you only get 20% Commission her is that correct?
And the prices are 6$ so one sale gives you only 1,20 in Commission correct ?

That is correct, the standard commision on sales at Crestock is 20% of the sales sum.

Huh? The FAQ clearly states:
"How much money do I get when I sell an image?
The contributor gets $2 each time one of his/her images is downloaded."
That's it, plain and simple.
In other words, the above indicated commission of $2 is based on the standard purchasing price of $10 per image, amounting to 20%. So you're saying if the client opts for your bulk discount which, at best value, would reduce the price per image to $6, the contributor then only receives $1.20?
Sure, you can point to the content upload agreement which does specify 20% of sale price. But then the FAQ is very misleading. I assumed after 100 downloads and a 30% commission we would be seeing a flat return of $3 per image sold, not fluctuating earnings based on bulk discounts.
I believe this would be the only agency where bulk credit discounts directly affect our commissions per image :ermm:

You are quite right about the FAQ stating 2$ USD flatly. This has now been corrected. Thank you for pointing this out.

I just sold a picture, smal one and i only got 0,25 cents. This is not 20%, can somebody explain this to me?

We pay a flat rate of 25 cent per image sold with regards to images sold through our image subscription service. This is reflected in point two of our upload agreement.

Hello I'm very interested in the changes of the comercial agreement between Crestock and the photographers/designers in the site. I don't think that Crestock has send us (photographers) the new values of the new prices and comissions. My first images solds where 2$ and now I find that I'm selling my vectors for 0.25$ maybe I don't agree with this new policy of new prices, I thinks that is not a fair play for crestock change suddenly the price without a warning. Seems that Crestock is affraid to be clear in this kind of stuff, noone here is for an altruist feeling of the life, I think that this is a serious theme, I'm sure that the 20% of comision is too low to be competitive, for that reason I think that this is one of the slowest pages selling microstock on the web. You pay low comission you can atract less photographers and this is why you have low traffic in your page.I hope someday you will listen and send new agreements and inform your photographers about taxa and comissions changes. Other interesting think to improve the sells in this page would be to accept paypal account to be payed. Visa and Mastercard are ok but in the web I preffer allways paypal and moneybrookers.. Sincerely yours imv

Hello? Anyone there???echo echo echo...... (Is so quite as sells in this page)

I understand your concern, but we did send out an e-mail notification about this to all our contributors when we launched this system. It stated the changes in our pricing and what this would mean with regards to payment for your images. However, it is possible that some did not recieve this e-mail due to problems with their e-mail service provider. For example, Yahoo and Hotmail/MSN adresses are currently filtering out our e-mails as spam, and consequently, if you do not regularly check your spam filter, you will not recieve these e-mails. We are working on getting us moved out of their spam filters.
Point two of the Crestock Upload Agreement also states that we can change the prices if we wish to:
The Supplier will receive 20% of the sale price per credit sale (images bought with credits) and $0.25 per subscription sale (images bought by subscribers). The payment will be executed via PayPal (www.paypal.com) and paid out to the Supplier once $100US is accumulated in his/her Crestock account. The parties agree that the sale price can be re-evaluated by Crestock at any time.
We have in no way tried hiding this from the public, as we sent out an e-mail to all our contributors about this at the same time as we made the pricing changes.
