I like Dreamstime. Been a member for many years. And I have always been paid in time.
10/10 experience. Great customer care. Editor';s choice is the best.
I am not yet satisfied selling designs on Dreamstime, because I have thousands of designs here but sales are still not balanced compared to other marketplaces, it takes 2-3 years to get $100 here.
Although DT is not at the very top of the Microstock business, it still has a very fair relationship towards contributors and a very transparent presentation of its business methods.
Prices have increased a lot over the past few years! This used to be one of the most affordable sources for iamges.
Sales reducing year by year with increase in files... and sales value for direct 4k video sales for $1.50 is a joke
Website is very user friendly and company is extremely reliable
I have been using this website for years. The prices are very reasonable (as I'm usually doing small projects, so only need a few royalty free images), and I can always find what I'm looking for.
I always find what I am looking for and the price is has always been reasonable. Very happy with Dreamstime stock clipart.
Good experience overall, the site is easy to navigate and quite response
This nonsense with subscriptions not rolling over and not being emailed if a payment doesn't process, as well as images downloading at the wrong size, and the proliferation of BAD aI images is not what I need. Tired of losing my rollovers and of the poor performance of the site when it come to downloading the wrong size.
Great micro stock site. Absolutely one of the most correct and honest to both customers and contributors
Great resource for stock photos, but I can't count the number of times I made a one-time credit package purchase only to be charged the next month for a subscription. I have to keep track of my purchase receipts because this happens so often.
I want to download an image and am continually asked to subscribe, but I already entered my credit card for a subscription. I don't understand why I continue to be asked for a subscription each time when I have credits available. I feel like I am being charged multiple times.

Obviously I enjoy using the extended possibilities with dreamstime. However, I was not pleased when I could not extend my 'black friday deal' last year. Don't offer black friday deals if I can't apply... Second I don't know what happens, but quite often when I choose to download an 's' or 'm' image a not correct image size is downloaded. When I try to correct it, other credits are accounted for. Which seems not to be my mistake.
My credit card expired and even though I had auto renewal on and updated the credit card within that subscription period, all my rollover images (HUNDREDS OF THEM) are gone. That's several hundreds dollars!
In general Dreamstime is a good stock agency. A little disadvantage is the procedure to confirm that you are a human after enter your login. This procedure (press & hold) works not so perfect on several desktop computers.
I lost my card and no message from dremstime to change payment card! I have lost my pictures which I don't download in subscription time...
Everything is done smoothly. Except I cannot modified my email when my registered email has been lost.
