Congrats on a nice Alamy sale! I sold an old timer car on Alamy in January, but it was much smaller sale. Shame on shutterstock, everyone seems to have disastrous RPD there... in my case it was as low as 0.26. Since you also live in The Netherlands and it is almost that time of the year I wanted to ask - is declaring the income from stock photography in a tax form a difficult process? Last year I said my expenses were higher than my income so I didnt have to declare anything, but this time it may not be the case anymore...
Hi There, Thanks vwery much. Tax is a complicated business. I have a tax advisor who does my taxes once a year. I declare the stock payments with my normal income and let them worry about it. I think you can hire an advisor for an hourly fee once a year and it is worth it for me.
123RF seems to be having big issues.. I can’t see uploads that their support can’t seem.. or they think it hasn’t been submitted.. when it shows as submitted on my side.
Gracias, thank you👍

Yes, i'm not sure what the problem is with RTF but such small agencies are in a decline sales wise for sure
