Always fairly steady for me too, although never jet propelled.

I've noticed a drop in sales on 123RF since they put the prices up though.

Things have changed there, They are NO LONGER the site that takes crap. They are now serious. It's about time. it's one of my best sites. Up your game guys. It's going to get tougher. everywhere and it should!! Hobbyists and amataurs better get in or get out.Thats the way it is.Live with it.

Bigstock has been pretty steady for me, although overall this month of May is definitely among my worst months in a long long time... O well, I just figure that there will be better months ahead. You can never tell how the eb and flow will go... And yes, as Rinder is saying all sites that are serious about making money are getting tougher... which is a good thing!

BSP has been doing better for me lately. I like that site. I've even get an .eps sale now and then, which is nice.

Awesome month on BSP here. It's on track to be a BME. I've been uploading like a banshee though, so maybe my hard work is finally starting to pay off. BSP is the first micro I've ever signed up on, and I'll be with them until the end.

When i joined several months ago, i found they rejected more of my portfolio than any other site i've tried, possibly worse than iStock, though i've just got started with them.

It's not a big player to me, but instead of other agencies I have more dl's than the months before. Same to me with 123RF.

All other bigger agencies are less dl's
