Anycubic Photon S Review: The Best Budget Resin 3D Printer?

The Anycubic Photon S is a budget SLA printer that produces phenomenal, highly-detailed prints. The Photon S is an upgraded version of the original Photon, sporting numerous improvements.

In this review guide, I’ll cover the most important features of the Photon S, differences over its predecessor, whether SLA/LCD printers are right for you, and how the Photon stacks up.

How the Photon S works

The Anycubic Photon is an SLA printer. It uses a high-powered UV lamp to cure each layer of your model, building the print from a vat of plastic resin. When you slice your model, a digital flipbook of each layer is built with each “frame” projected onto the build plate.

Anycubic Photon Mono X 6K Resin 3D Printer review: does the printer deliver what Anycubic promises?

Anycubic’s new version of the Photon Mono X promises higher resolution and faster processing times. At speeds of up to 80 mm/h, the 3D printer, which retails for 659 USD, is designed to produce replicates from UV resin. The 6K resolution of the masking screen renders details as thin as a single hair.

The Anycubic Photon Mono X 6K is supposed to be extremely fast. To achieve this, the printer has a very high-contrast LCD panel that only allows UV radiation to pass through in the selected areas and a strong UV light source. The LCD panel measures 19.7 × 12.2 cm with a 6K resolution of 5,760 × 3600 pixels. This results in a detail accuracy in the X-Y plane of about 0.034 mm. Along the Z axis, i.e. the height, a resolution of about 0.01 mm is achievable. 

Technical Specifications

● System : ANYCUBIC Photon Mono X

● Operation : 3.5 inch Touch Screen

● Net Weight: ~10.75kg

Anycubic Photon D2 DLP Resin 3D Printer review

The new Anycubic Photon D2 DLP resin 3D printer is now available and this review should help you decide if the printer is right for you.

When people talk about consumer resin 3D printers, they’re usually referring to masked stereolithography (MSLA) technology. This process works by shining UV light through an LCD screen into a vat of resin that solidifies when exposed to that UV light. When a pixel on the LCD is set to its darkest state, it prevents light from passing through. Those opaque pixels mask the portion of each layer that shouldn’t solidify.

The new Anycubic Photon D2 DLP resin 3D printer is now available and this review should help you decide if the printer is right for you.

Full disclosure: Anycubic provided me with the Photon D2 for this review. But, as always, this review is as honest and unbiased as possible.

Technical Specifications

DLP vs. MLSA resin 3D printing

When people talk about consumer resin 3D printers, they’re usually referring to masked stereolithography (MSLA) technology. This process works by shining UV light through an LCD screen into a vat of resin that solidifies when exposed to that UV light. When a pixel on the LCD is set to its darkest state, it prevents light from passing through. Those opaque pixels mask the portion of each layer that shouldn’t solidify.

Digital light processing (DLP) is much less common. Instead of a masking LCD panel, DLP 3D printers utilize MEMS (micro-mlectromechanical systems) projectors. A UV light shines onto a DMD (digital micromirror device) array made up of millions of microscopic mirror elements. Each tiny mirror flips to either reflect the UV light towards the vat or not, which determines if that pixel cures.

DLP printers have two primary advantages over MLSA printers. The first is that the projector has a much longer service life. A typical MSLA LCD panel is good for around 2,000 hours of use, while a DLP projector can last 20,000 hours. The other big advantage is reduced light bleed, which is a common problem with MSLA printers.

There is a lot to love about the new Anycubic Photon D2. The DLP projector produces really crisp, clean details that look fantastic. It also produces less heat and consumes less power.

The only real drawback is that the DLP projector is significantly more expensive than LCD panels. That means that the Anycubic Photon D2 is far costlier MSLA printers of the same size and resolution. But as I’ve said, pixel size doesn’t tell the whole story when you’re comparing DLP to MSLA.

For those who want to get into DLP resin printing, the Anycubic Photon D2 can’t be beat. This is the only DLP printer in the consumer market, other than the preceding Ultra. The only competition is in the prosumer space and those models cost thousands of dollars.

Anycubic Photon M3 Review

The Anycubic Photon M3 is the smallest resin 3D printer in the M3 family. But that doesn’t mean it’s bad.
It comes with a pretty large 7.6-inch 4K+ monochrome screen which promises good printing quality while also bridging the gap between small format resin 3D printers and mid-sized machines.

So let’s see how the Anycubic Photon M3 performs, and if it’s worth getting one.

Technical Specifications

● LCD screen: 7.6 inches monochrome screen

● Printing accuracy: 4,096 x 2,560 pixels

● Printing volume: 2.99 l / 101.19 oz

● Light transmittance: 4%

● Contrast ratio: 400:1

● Light source: parallel matrix light source

● Printing platform: laser-engraved aluminum alloy platform

● Printing speed: ≤ 50 mm /1.97 inches per hour

● Control panel: 2.8-inch resistance touch screen

● Data input: USB-A 2.0 interface

● Rated power: 55W

● Print size: 180 x 163 x 102 mm / 7.1 x 6.4 x 4.0 inches

● Machine size: 425 x 269 x 256 mm / 16.7 x 10.6 x 10.1 inches. (HLW)

● Machine weight: 7 kg / 15.4 LBS

When I first saw the Anycubic Photon M3, I can’t say I liked its design. But over the last few months I’ve had it around, it sort of grew on me. It’s still not my favorite when it comes to design, but now I can tolerate it.

The top cover is made from transparent yellow plastic, just like other Anycubic resin 3D printers, but this one has a slightly different color. It also has a slanted front for some reason. It might make it easier to mold, but when you print a really tall model the printing surface sits really close to the front cover.

A firmware upgrade for the Photon M3 has been shared, so I recommend installing the new firmware for the best results.

The base is made from plastic with a brushed aluminum finish, probably to save money. While the machine feels a bit cheap, I think it’s fine when it comes to functionality.

While I don’t really care too much about the size of the small 2.8-inch touchscreen installed on the Anycubic Photon M3, I am not a huge fan of the USB and power button position. I would have liked to see them placed somewhere in front of the machine.

Judging by the print quality you get, and the price of ~300 USD at the time of writing this review, the Photon M3 from Anycubic is a great option if you are in the market for a compact resin printer with pretty generous printing volume for its size.

Honestly, if I were to purchase a printer right now, I would get something with a build plate of at least 10 inches. But that’s just me who likes printing big models. If you are someone who prints miniatures, then the Photon M3 can be a great option. It prints fast, and the screen resolution is more than enough to capture good details.

Sure, the M3 is not as “smart” as other resin printers with nicer touchscreen, firmware, and extra functionality (like the Creality Halot One Plus) but it does the printing job well enough to make those features matter less for me. And the price is great, especially considering that Anycubic has these M3 printers in warehouses all around the world.

Anycubic Vyper 3D printer review

The Vyper is a surprisingly robust 3D printer with more features than you would expect from a $400 machine. It just needs a proper slicer profile.

Technical Specifications

● Printing Technology: FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling)

● Build Volume: 245mm(L)×245(W)×260mm(H)

● Print resolution : ±0.1mm

● Positioning accuracy: X/Y 0.0125mm; Z 0.002mm

● Extruder number: Single; Nozzle diameter: 0.4 mm

● Print Speed: ≤ 180mm/s (recommended 80mm/s)

● Support filaments: PLA, TPU, ABS, PETG, Wood

● Ambient Operating Temperature: 8°C – 40°C

● Operational Nozzle Temperature: max ≤260°C

● Operational Hot Bed Temperature: max ≤110°C

● Slicing Software: Cura; Output Formats: GCode

● Input Formats: .STL, .OBJ, .AMF

● Connection mode: Trans-flash Card; USB cable(expert users only)

● Input voltage: 100V/240V AC, 60/50Hz

● Output voltage: 24V/14.6A(350W)

● Machine size: 508mm×457mm×516mm

● Machine weight: ~10kg

The Anycubic Vyper is the company’s latest foray into FDM printing and has received many upgrades from previous 3D printers. We took it for a spin and found it to be an excellent budget printer with some not-so-budget extras.

Because Anycubic has been around a long time, its logistics team is prepared to supply Vypers to its warehouses. Since the 3D printer was released, I haven’t seen it leave Amazon, so if you are looking to buy one, you should be able to get it easily.

The Anycubic Vyper, like so many others, is a clone of the Ender 3 from Creality. Often, the clones don’t really add much value; a few tweaks here and there, maybe a better buildplate, but that’s it. The Vyper, though, has taken the original Ender 3 blueprint and upgraded almost every part. It has a new 32-bit mainboard, an all-new double-gear extruder (it makes the filament more secure, less likely to clog, and more accurate as it feeds), and a set of injection-molded finishes that house tuning screws to help with belt tension.

 

LightInTheBox Review 2023

LightInTheBox is an online discount site, referred to as both LightInTheBox and Light in the Box Limited, that offers deep discounts on everything from affordable clothing to electronics.

Founded in 2007, LightInTheBox is a global online retailer that specializes in offering customizable products at steep discounts.

LightInTheBox is a popular online retailer selling everything from clothing and accessories to home goods and electronics at lower prices than most wholesale suppliers.

LightInTheBox is also a well known dropshipping supplier for clothing and fashion.

But if you look at LightInTheBox reviews online, you’ll often find customers complaining about late deliveries and poor-quality merchandise, even though LightInTheBox is a successful company with millions of dollars in annual revenue.

Is LightInTheBox a good place to buy from? In this LightInTheBox review, you’ll learn whether LightInTheBox is safe and legit, along with tips for a smoother buying experience.

What Exactly Does Light In The Box Company Sell?

Our Light In The Box review found that the company sells items that fall under the following main categories:

  • Women’s Clothing
  • Men’s Clothing
  • Sports & Outdoors
  • Shoes & Bags
  • Home & Garden
  • Weddings & Events
  • Baby & Kids

  • Toys & Hobbies
  • Consumer Electronics

The most popular items the company sells include Light In The Box dresses, Light In The Box shoes, and small electronic devices.



You Get What You Pay

Customers often prefer high-quality products at cheap prices. Though LightInTheBox provides cheap and affordable products, too, do not expect their quality to be extremely good and reliable.

The cheap prices usually lead customers to order from LightInTheBox, but often they are disappointed with the products once they receive them because they had high expectations.

For example, when ordering replicas from LightInTheBox at very low prices then don’t expect the quality to be as good as the original ones.

In other words, you get what you pay.

And that’s it!

Let’s quickly recap all the six factors that are CRUCIAL for you to know before making a purchase on LightInTheBox:

  1. High shipping costs
  2. Longer delivery time
  3. Returns are mostly unsuccessful because of the complicated and costly return process
  4. Customs/Import duties may be charged on your orders
  5. No customer service via phone, email, and live chat
  6. You get what you pay

By keeping these six factors into consideration, you can easily determine how safe and reliable is LightInTheBox and whether or not you should buy from them.

The only benefit of ordering products from LightInTheBox is that it offers a wide variety of items especially dresses at affordable prices.

Want to give LightInTheBox a try?

Then, do follow the tips below to greatly reduce the risks of having issues with your orders.

Is Light In The Box Legit?

Light In The Box is definitely a legit company as it has been around since 2007, trades on the New York Stock Exchange, and has millions of customers worldwide. However, it is not completely safe and reliable to buy from.

Tips For Buying Safely on LightInTheBox

Before buying any items, the first thing you should do is to:

1. Check The Product Reviews

One of the most crucial things to do before purchasing anything is to read the product reviews, as this will inform you of what other customers have to say about the item since only actual buyers can leave reviews.

Good reviews indicate good products, while bad reviews indicate bad products. 

Personally, I recommend buying items having at least 70+ reviews with star ratings of 4.7 or above, the more the better.

However, DO NOT PLACE ORDERS just by looking at product images posted by LightInTheBox because those pictures usually portray the items as being better than they really are.

Instead, you should check the product images posted by other people in the reviews section to get an idea of how the product actually looks like.

After thoroughly going through the product reviews, the next step is to:   

2. Check The Number of Sold Items

A product having positive reviews and good ratings is usually purchased frequently by customers but you should manually check the total number of sold items. 

I recommend purchasing items that have been sold at least 1000 times

After that you should:

3. Carefully Read Product Description

Buyers usually overlook the product description and place orders just by checking the product’s photos and reviews.

Not reading the description can have bad consequences for you because there might be important information about the product you should be aware of.

For example, product features, quality, sizing, specifications, compatibility, what’s in the box, and whether it is a replica or an original product. 

Therefore, it’s mandatory for you to carefully read the description of the product before placing an order.

Besides that, you should also:

4. Check The Product Size Properly

One of the biggest complaints of users who bought from LightInTheBox is about the product sizes.

In most cases, sizing issues occur due to the blunder of customers who do not properly check the size chart while ordering. 

As a result, when customers attempt to return the item for size exchange, they come to know that the return procedure of LightInTheBox is complicated and expensive, as already mentioned.

Therefore, if you’re ordering products where size matters such as clothes and shoes then it’s extremely important to check the size guide/chart properly to make sure you are ordering the right items.

After checking the reviews, numbers of sold items, product description, and size chart then you should also:

5. Read The Q&A Section

If you have any confusion regarding an item you wish to purchase, read the question and answer section to find answers to the questions you might also have in your mind about that product.

In case you haven’t found the answer to your question, you can ask your own question by clicking on Ask a New Question. 

You should not place your order until you find the answer to your question and your confusion is cleared about that particular product you’re interested in buying.

6. Look for Duty and Tax Insurance

LightInTheBox provides duty and tax insurance for certain items that you should look out for and add to your order if available.

Though you will incur the extra charges, its benefit is that if your local customs office charges a tax fee from you, LITB claims to fully refund you that tax fee.

7. Add Shipping Insurance To Your Order

Although duty and tax insurance is available for certain items, shipping Insurance is available for all products and applied by default while ordering any items. 

I highly recommend not to remove it from your order because LightInTheBox claims to reship your order immediately without any extra charges if your package is lost or damaged during shipment.

And lastly, I recommend you to:

8. Avoid Postal Service As a Shipping Method for Expensive Items

First of all, I recommend not to purchase expensive items from LightInTheBox because of the risks discussed above.

However, if you still want to order then I highly suggest you avoid the Postal Service as a shipping method for your order even though it is the most affordable option for shipment.

The reason for avoiding it for expensive items is because of the very long delivery time and the risks of your items being damaged/broken or even never reaching your destination.

I recommend Postal Service only for inexpensive products, while Expedited Express or any other better shipping method is recommended for expensive items.

Original review: Jan. 27, 2021

After using a couple other sites that have less expensive items but pay in shipping. Light in The Box has by far been the best. Especially when it comes to customer support. My family has loved almost everything we’ve received. Most often fairly quick delivery as well.

Final Verdict

LightInTheBox is a legit company with good products and a solid reputation. If you’re looking for a variety of goods at low prices, then you’ll find that Light in The Box has just what you need. 

Spocket Review 2023

Looking for a comprehensive Spocket review?

You’ve come to the right place!

In this Spocket review, we’ll take an in-depth look at the platform.

We spent tens of hours researching and using the platform, and it gave us a good understanding of how it works and what to expect from it.

To help you, we will go through the main features of Spocket and give you our honest opinion about the platform.

Before we dive into the review, let’s first look at what Spocket exactly is and how it works.

Let’s get started!

What is Spocket?

what is spocket

With the help of Machine Learning, Spocket is revolutionizing the dropshipping market and aiding online retailers competing with Amazon- by removing the need to hold inventory and erasing upfront costs for retailers. Spocket enables over 30,000 entrepreneurs across five continents to launch and scale their online stores with a focus on US and EU products. By carefully vetting suppliers, merchants and customers can be ensured of fast shipping, quality and consistent products, branded invoicing and a world-class customer support team. Be part of the revolutionary vision of Spocket to remove inventory from the online and physical retail by using the dropshipping model and fixing the $1.1 trillion issue called inventory distortion.

Who is Spocket for?

Most products on Spocket are at the high end of the quality spectrum (some products even have their own brand names), so the level of prices is relatively higher on Spocket than on other dropshipping marketplaces. For this reason, Spoecket is suitable for dropshipping merchants who are planning to sell high-quality products on their online store (the target consumers for products from Spocket is the middle class who are willing to pay more for higher quality).

It’s not rare that dropshipping products turn out to be bad when they arrive at the consumers’ doors, and that, in turn, damages the reputation of the dropshipping severely. With Spocket, you can rest assured that your customers will receive their orders at their expected quality. This will help you increase the chance that your customers will come back and buy again.

The punchline is if you’re looking to build a long-term business in the field of dropshipping, Spocket is one of the best options to check out for sourcing products. This marketplace stays committed to sourcing only high-quality products from established suppliers, which means you don’t have to worry too much about the quality of the products you dropship, and you can have more time and energy to spend on selling those products to your customers.

On Spocket, there is a huge number of products that you can choose from, and you can create a personalized selection of these products that you don’t have to manufacture, fulfill, or deliver yourself. This product selection will help create a great impression on your customers, and they will be more likely to buy again from your store.

How does Spocket work?

Spocket connects directly to Shopify and WooCommerce stores and allows businesses to find suppliers who ship directly to customers without having to hold any inventory.

That’s the basic dropshipping model, but Spocket goes further by offering fast shipping times, simplified returns & refunds, and personalized branding tools.

This means that businesses only have to worry about marketing and selling their products; they don’t have to worry about inventory, shipping, or manufacturing.

Spocket’s suppliers are fully vetted and they only work with high-quality products. This is great news for businesses because it means they don’t have to worry about customers receiving products that are defective or of poor quality.

On top of this, Spocket offers fast samples so businesses can try out products before they commit to selling them.

What Makes Spocket a Good Option?

In this section of the Spocket review, we’ll discuss why this dropshipping merchant might be the perfect partner for your eCommerce store.

Spocket made its reputation in the dropshipping community by assuring the products they sell are of high quality from reputed sellers. They also pride themselves on delivering to customers on time with your company’s branding displayed. More than 60,000 eCommerce stores trust this marketplace as their official dropshipping partner.

Spocket was launched more than three years ago and serves drop shippers from all around the world. The software helps you discover the right products for your store, connect with reliable and approved merchants, and sample the selected products. It also allows you to streamline your sales and order fulfillment process and efficiently deliver your products to your customers.

This dropshipping marketplace is most suited for entrepreneurs looking to sell high-quality products to their customers. It helps you make your eCommerce business stable and ensures your customers are happy and revisiting your website.

All the suppliers on Spocket are reliable and approved by the platform for selling good quality products. It helps you focus more on growing your business by adding products your target audience would like rather than ensuring the quality and legitimacy of the seller. The platform helps take the hassle out of running an eCommerce business.

The best part that makes Spocket a good option for drop shippers in this Spocket review is the ability to select your items based on location. For instance, if you target Canadian buyers for your business, you can look for reliable sellers in that country. It minimizes your order fulfillment process, and your products get shipped between 2 to 14 days.

The Pros of Spocket

In this Spocket review, we will discuss the benefits of this marketplace and the areas where it needs to improve.

Easy Currency Configuration

When you search for your products at the Spocket marketplace, all of the items listed by the sellers have their prices shown in USD. However, whenever you connect this marketplace with your Shopify store, the currency will automatically be updated to your store’s default currency.

Single Click Imports

The days of manually uploading all of your dropshipping products, their images, and the description are now over. With Spocket, you can import the product along with the seller description and original pictures with a single click. The platform also allows you to change the description and personalize it based on your target audience.

Real-Time Inventory Updates

Spocket allows you to view your inventory 24/7 in real-time. This enables you to plan your inventory as your customers buy your products. You can easily maintain your inventory with minimum effort, with the help of automated mode, which handles the entire ordering process.

Automate Your Pricing Process

With Spocket, you no longer have to set the selling price for each product. The markup feature on the platform helps you set up your preferred percentage, and Spocket will apply it to all the products in your dropshipping store. It simplifies the pricing process, allowing you to focus on other vital aspects of your business. You can also calculate your profit percentage through the platform.

Automated Order Fulfillment

One of the platform’s best features that makes it stand out in our Spocket review is the automatic fulfillment of orders. After your customer has placed an order on your website, the platform will notify you and your supplier. Your supplier can then pick the product, pack it up, and ship it on your behalf. With real-time tracking, you can track the customer’s order and ensure it reaches them on time.

Customer reviews

“The Best Way to Source Products for Your Business”

Overall: I have had a great overall experience with Spocket. The app is easy to use and the customer service is excellent. I highly recommend Spocket for anyone looking for a reliable and easy-to-use source for wholesale products.

Pros: I really enjoyed the ease of use and the wide variety of products that were available on the platform. It was also great that I could find products from small businesses and that the process of ordering and shipping was so streamlined.

Cons: There is not much that I did not like about Spocket. The only thing that I could think of is that it would be nice if there was a way to filter products by color.

“Spocket Does Two Things Well: Fast Shipping Time and Quality Products!”

Overall: Overall, Spocket is simple to use, and it has quality products.

Pros: If you are shipping to buyers in the USA, Spocket will ensure that your products are shipped fast. This is because most of the suppliers available on Spocket are actually shipping from the USA, so you can achieve a shipping time of under one week. Shipping from AliExpress will most likely not give you this added advantage, except you are making use of e-packet. Although some suppliers on Spocket ship from countries outside the USA, countries like Poland, UK, Australia, etc. They still try their best to ensure faster shipping times. Apart from shipping times, one other thing that I like about Spocket is the quality of products that are available from these suppliers, the quality of product is good. Also, Spocket supports more stores than a lot of these drop-shipping management SaaS providers. It’s not just Shopify with Spocket, it also supports WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Wix, etc. You obviously more choices regarding your shopping cart software. Also, the interface of Spocket is quite easy to get used to and make use of. There is nothing complicated about using the website. Spocket also has a Chrome extension called AliScraper that you can use to import products directly from AliExpress.

Cons: I wish Spocket and GrooveKart could work together. Also, the range of products availabe on Spocket is kind of limited compared to some other drop-ship automation software. That has improved over time, and you can make use of the extension to import products from AliExpress directly. That’s one way to have access to more products.

“Amazing Dropping Platform that Gave Wings to My Ecommerce Dream”

Overall: I had just started my eCommerce business and was looking for a reliable dropping supplier/platform where I can integrate my store and sell different products. I came across Spocket and it has given wings to my online selling business. The biggest issue for me was to discover dropping suppliers to ship products to customers and Spocket has 100% fulfilled my need. I am extremely happy!

Pros: I like the wide range of products available on Spocket to choose from. One-click sync with the online store has saved my hours on getting trained on the configuration part. A broad network of dropping suppliers has removed my stress on the shipping area as they can quickly and reliably ship products to customers. Making branded invoices on Spocket was also very easy and helpful.

Cons: At an initial level, I was facing some issues while integrating Spocket with my Wix online store. But, the support team was very helpful and solved my issues. I can not easily use Spocket with my Wix store.

Alamy Stock Photo Review

Alamy Stock Photo

I want my Alamy review to be as detailed as possible and that means covering every angle. We have to consider both sides at play for both the buyer and the contributor (who knows how many photographers are reading this?). 

That’s why I’ll be breaking this down into two sections – read the portion applicable and carry on or take a glance through both to be informed on the whole business at play.

How Does Alamy Work? 

Contributors

Alamy’s contributors go through a bit more of a process to get their pieces on the market, however, it’s still quite straightforward. 

It all starts with a photo you love that should have some exposure in the world. Any subject works, as the Alamy library seems to have a spot for every category.

Getting them uploaded doesn’t take much time at all. Creators simply have to:

  1. Upload or transfer the images
  2. Wait while Quality Control checks over the image before approving
  3. Add necessary tags and captions that will allow customers easy access to finding the image
  4. Submit the image for next-day sales

Once that’s done, photos are live for sale and available to the public. All contributors receive fair pay with images used in papers, shows, and a wide range of websites

Let the photos air and rake in the money as more people discover the beauty in the story provided from your lens to their screen.

Contributors have a non-exclusivity agreement in place meaning photographers are able to submit their photos to additional stock sites for wider exposure. 

Take advantage of the Alamy tools that track analytics and customer needs, suggesting popular categories to add to over time.

All photographers have full control of their images with no additional editing done on Alamy’s part. Once Quality Control has been checked, the rest is up to the contributor to determine just how to finish things with finesse. 

The more photos uploaded, the better the chance of bringing in more money. Simple and quick, this process makes it easy to explore the world of artist exposure.

Alamy vs Shutterstock

We all know that Alamy isn’t the only name in the market for stock images. There’s a variety of brands that pop up offering a similar contributor-buyer relationship with benefits on both sides. One of the biggest names in the industry – Shutterstock.

Dating back to 2003, Shutterstock was quick to make their name stand out for their wide and expansive selection of photos at affordable prices. 

Focusing on micro stock, these images maintain lower costs for licensing use of images, paying photographers with each download to really support the international artists that have created such an extensive library.

The main difference between these names comes from their status of pricing. Shutterstock offers only micro stock while Alamy goes for both micro and macro. What’s the difference? Cost. 

Micro images typically revolve around general images sold for low costs with photographers earning a few cents per image sold. Macro stock photos go for double, sometimes triple-digit prices for more editorial purposes.  

Writing this Alamy review, I know that there are pros and cons to each brand. I’m not going to sway readers either way, but instead, offer up a suggestion on which one to choose for general needs.

  • General pictures of pets, posing people, wallpapers, patterns, etc., are your forte
  • Fast money is preferred (contributors see their pay at quicker intervals)
  • Big money doesn’t matter most (as photographers earn approximately 10 cents per purchase)
  • Captioning, titling, and hash-tagging isn’t a favored past time (keyword suggestions appear for the photographer to select)

Choose Alamy if

  • Larger, editorial images are the dream (i.e. buildings, streetscapes, people, events, etc.)
  • Lots of sales aren’t the priority
  • Waiting for larger sales is a game worth playing
  • Statistics and measuring tools interest you
  • Community atmosphere through forum posts appeals

Both businesses have their own benefits and, with Alamy’s non-exclusivity agreement, it’s possible to work both

Find the brand that best suits your personal style and needs and go from there. It may take a bit of time and research, but either way contributors and buyers find the support they need through an open and caring environment.

Is Alamy Legit?

As far as I can tell while doing my research for this Alamy review, the business is legit. Their expansive inventory and listing of contributors speak to all that this brand offers the industry. The only issues I’ve seen come from an apparent lack of customer service support from the company. 

It seems contributors have found more dilemmas with the business than buyers, however, I’m only pulling this information from a small and select pool of reviewers, so it may not accurately reflect the business as a whole.

Alamy encourages photographers to upload their images and allow the site to sell them to news organizations, bloggers and others. However, Alamy differentiates itself by making top royalty rates more widely available to its contributors. For instance, where you’d need to sell an astounding 25,000 images to earn a 40% royalty at Shutterstock, you can earn that 40% royalty at Alamy after ringing up just $250 in annual sales. The site bumps you up to the higher royalty level whenever you qualify.

In addition, where iStock and Getty Images impose huge restrictions on contributors who go after “exclusive” license deals, Alamy’s exclusive license simply means that you have not submitted that particular piece of art to any other site for licensing. And, if you agree to this exclusive deal, you earn a 50% commission on that sale. You can sign up to list your photography on Alamy here.

On the other hand…

Unfortunately, the friendlier freelancer terms may be necessary because Alamy doesn’t have the market penetration that the big guys command. This may mean that you’ll make fewer sales here. As a result you should also upload your non-exclusive photo stock to other sites including Shutterstock, Adobe Stock and Getty Images.

Contributors are paid once a month, once they have accumulated at least $50 in their account.

“I love you Alamy, but I’m breaking up with you,” –Brutallyhonestmicrostock

From Trust Pilot

“Great site for contributors with the best earnings in the market! The only problem is that to get a sale is extremely difficult!”

“I have been contributing to Alamy for a few years now. After the initial rejection, I left it for a while until I felt that my photography had improved sufficiently. I have never sold a photo in the time I have been with them. Maybe it is the subject matter. But I will be going elsewhere I think.”

“Alamy started as a stock photo agency that Picture BUYERS trusted. I licensed thousands of dollars of images during my years as a photo editor for a large publisher. Now that I’m retired, I sell my own images on Alamy. I really can’t understand the bad reviews here. I’m happy with the results of my sales – not a lot, but I only have 500 images on their site.”

Stock photography – This is a really awesome place to get stock photography, or just browse through pictures, I spend hours on it.

Excellent Content and Pricing!

I like Alamy’s setup of pricing but their best attribute is the massive content their site hosts. Photographers and libraries, past and present, can be found here which is a need for me and they get the job done. Only recently have they reached out to me to begin establishing a relationship which is good. I would say they need to do more of this as stock photography sites of their market, which primarily would be AgeFotoStock, already have superior customer service but I cannot say anything negative at this point regarding the site as they have always met my needs.


Boris P.

Web Developer

Small-Business(50 or fewer emp.)

The quality of the photos and videos is what I like the most. We good awesome value for the money. The prices are low enough that we can acquire many professional media files for use in many types of internal and public-facing business materials. The website is easy to use to find, buy and download photos. We don’t have to interact with an actual person though support team members are readily available.

Envato customers will get unlimited, lifetime updates for the products they bought. But that’s not the case with other popular marketplaces like MyThemeShop, GeneratePress, etc. They force you to make annual payments to get regular updates.

Since you get lifelong updates on Themeforest themes and plugins, you can use them for a long time without any security threats. It will also help you to save a huge amount in annual subscription also.

2. Huge collection

Envato Market has a huge collection of WordPress themes and plugins across various categories. So it’s not difficult for you to find a suitable product for your needs. They add new items very frequently to handle growing industrial demands and issue regular updates on existing products to boost your web performance.

The company runs several quality checks before listing and selling products through their marketplace. Thys, they make it sure that your themes are free from malware and other security bugs.

Envato products are available at affordable rates. Starting at just $13, you can buy a premium theme from Envato Market.

It includes beautiful stock photos, codes, video templates, graphic effects, background music, logos, and so on. So you don’t have to visit different marketplaces to buy each element.

Cons of Envato Market

Are there any drawbacks for Envato Market?

Yes, certainly. 

1. 6-months support

The developer’s support is limited for first 6 months only. Typically, any company offers a minimum of 1 year of support for their products. But here, you should pay an extra amount to extend support to one year.

It will be around $18, if you opted the extension during the time of purchase itself. But after expiring the validity, the same rate will be increase to $40 or more based on the category of your product. 

2. No money-back guarantee

Envato is a platform that allows members to buy and sell their creative products from one-place. I recently contacted their customer support through email to know about their money back policies.

They told me that, since many developers are reluctant to refund amount, they can’t provide a specific money-back guarantee to customers. But you will get a limited period money-back guarantee on selected products.

Contact developers in advance to know more about their refund procedure. If you are facing any issues with a purchased product, raise a support request or get in touch with Envato support for further steps.

What VPN Protocols Does NordVPN Offer?

NordVPN uses NordLynx (an implementation of WireGuard) by default in its Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows apps. OpenVPN is also available on all those platforms as a backup. IKEv2 is available for iOS and macOS apps only.

OpenVPN and IKEv2 have long been the gold standards for VPNs, but WireGuard is increasingly popular. It’s easy to see why: like OpenVPN, WireGuard is open source, but it uses newer encryption techniques and yields better speeds.

Speed test results for NordVPN

NordVPN’s exceptional performance took us by surprise. Previously, NordVPN couldn’t hold its own against the major VPN providers. Now, it has established a place amongst them. We tested both NordVPN servers on a local server and a US server. Keep in mind that your personal speed results with NordVPN may vary depending on your internet speed and location.

Internet Speeds without VPN (Speedtest.net):

These are the speed test results without the use of a VPN. We’ll use these numbers as a base measurement to compare all our other results with.

Speed with a local server (Speedtest.net):

Above you can see the speed test results of our network when connected to one of NordVPN’s local servers. There are decreases in both download and upload speeds, but in practice, these differences are negligible because the drop-off is relatively low compared to other servers. So, is NordVPN good in terms of speeds? Absolutely!

Speed on a USA server (Speedtest.net):

The results above detail the speeds our network reached when we connected to the fastest US server. The upload speed in particular shows a significant decrease. The download speed, however, is the most important factor for most VPN users. The latter isn’t affected as much, hence we still consider the performance of NordVPN to be excellent. However, remember that we tested from the Netherlands, so if you are in the US yourself, you will get better results connecting to a US server.

Other technical features

The list of security features in the NordVPN suite is very impressive:

  • Double VPN (multi-hop)
  • Obfuscated servers (Stealth VPN)
  • Dark Web Monitor
  • Invisibility on LAN
  • Onion over VPN (integration with the Tor network for even more encryption and traffic rerouting)
  • Split tunneling (Windows, Android, Android TV)
  • Free SOCKS5 proxy
  • Meshnet

By meeting people’s significant security and privacy needs in high-stakes situations (think dissidents in totalitarian regimes), this service provides an answer for any everyday issue. Whether it’s anonymous torrenting or secure public Wi-Fi use, these features got you covered.

Double VPN, also known as multi-hop, is a feature that lets you connect to not one but two VPN servers. As a result, your traffic is encrypted two times for even better security and privacy. However, it only works with the OpenVPN protocol and significantly impacts performance.

Obfuscated servers, or Stealth VPN, is a feature for countries with restricted internet access. Many of them detect VPN traffic using Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) and block it right away. When you turn on Obfuscated servers, you can even bypass the Great Firewall of China.

Dark Web Monitor is a pretty unique feature. It checks if your email associated with the NordVPN account has ended up on a database with leaked data. If it does, you’ll get notified on your app. In such a case, you should immediately change the password of the compromised account, which can be anything from a Facebook login to your mailbox.

Invisibility on LAN is beneficial when you don’t want your device to be visible on your local area network. It doesn’t make much sense when you’re at home, but turning it on while on public Wi-Fi is a good idea. If you can’t be seen on LAN, it’s much harder for malicious actors to gain access to your device.

Onion over VPN, or Tor over VPN, is a connection mode where you combine NordVPN with the Tor network. First, you establish a VPN connection and then launch the Tor browser that further sends the traffic via three nodes. This way, it becomes extremely tough to track you back, although that also reduces connection speed significantly.

Split tunneling is a great feature when you want to protect only some parts of your connection. For example, you may want to turn on split tunneling for torrenting and stream videos without VPN protection. It also lets you connect to your office network from home and still browse the web as if you weren’t connected to your workplace.

SOCKS5 proxy works somewhat similar to split tunneling. It allows you to use NordVPN for torrenting only. You can configure uTorrent or any other client to use the VPN server and leave the rest of your connection as it is so you can access local content unavailable in other countries.

Meshnet is another unique feature. It allows you to connect to devices directly through encrypted private tunnels and is handy for several things, from easy file sharing to even gaming. You can also use internet traffic routing to access the web under a different machine’s IP address. Plus, Meshnet is powered by NordLynx for utmost security.
