I can't believe it, I actually have the #9 most popular image last week on istock! I never thought I would make the top ten ever. I'm very excited. I also made my silver canister yesterday too!

Hey, I'm #15 on the last 3 months, although the number is wrong - that's over more than 3 months.

Congrats to both of you. That's a real achievement. You both have great portfolios. I'm inspired

Thank you all! Yes, being non-exclusive is why I was shocked as well.

Unfortunately, there always seems to be bad with the good. For some reason some idiot is jealous or something and has started going through my portfolio and giving EVEYTHING a 1 camera rating. What kind of jerk would do something like that? Member Profile : collien | iStockphoto.com I don't even know who this person is. I sent a ticket into support yesterday, so we I guess I'll have to wait and see what, if anything they do about it. It's just very frustrating!!!

iStock, behind the smiling mask, is home to sick minded people. If you need to make money over there, avoid talking in public about them. That is the way it is.

EDIT: on second thought, it appears your collien friend is only a noob from East Europe. Maybe, due to cultural differences, he did not understand the meaning of one star rating...

Yipee! Istock removed all the 1 ratings this guy gave me. I really hope they give him the boot too!!!
