StockXpert was acquired by Getty Images, the owners of iStockPhoto a while ago. In a rather predictable move they announced that they would be closing direct sales on the site starting February 11th, 2010. What does this mean for photographers? Well consider it a consildation of accoutns and one less place to upload images. Buyers are being directed over to iStockPhoto and they are even allow to transfer their credits. From this post on the forum it appear that photographers can either transfer fund or email StockXpert for a payout.
As for your earnings you can either transfer then to your iStock account by logging back into your account and then follow the guidelines to do so.
If you don't want to transfer to iStock or do not have an account there, email customer support and ask for a complete payout. I suggest you only do so after Feb 10 in case you get more sales until then.
Accounts at StockXpert will still be actiave and the place photographers receive earning for Getty's ThinkStock project.
If you haven't already setup a iStockphoto account, view iStockphoto reviews or signup.

Fotolia has changed the way that their vector images are priced. From their newsletter: In order to promote our vectors offer, we decided to modify the pricing structure for vector files. There are now 3 different price levels according to the complexity of the vector file. This complexity level will be appreciated by the Fotolia team. |
