Scammers! Toni Cruz and Jennifer Lee are a disgrace and taking advantage of struggling writers. They have a script they follow and use "sick family members" to get you to feel bad for them.

Wish I could give a zero star because they are scammers. Like real scammers. First thing, google their address, its a strip mall. 2nd "Agent" Lorenzo Cruz contacted me pitching traditional publishing and then after a week told me that I need to pay for their company to self publish my book 1st. I said absolutely not. The next day I got a call from a fake book seller (with the same accent as Lorenzo) telling me they had been contacted by my agent and wanted to purchases 1,500 copies of my book and I should get it published. I laughed at them and told them I know a scam when I hear one. They are evil and pray on people's dreams. To have someone call and act like they want to purchase your book is pure evil and Im sure a lot of people fall for it. They are fake and 100% a scam company. Do not believe anything they tell you. Don't be an idiot. You have been warned.

Predatory scam based out of a WA strip mall PostNet mailbox next to a nail salon and a chicken fast food restaurant. Do your research people. Aggressively targeted my 91 year old mother in law. I am a lawyer and the "contract" says they have exclusive ongoing rights to anything and everything and never once mentions the book.

I paid $4k to have my book republished per their requests to bring it up to standard. Then they had Dr. Jennifer Lim from the Blind and Visually Impaired Foundation of Baltimore contact me about buying audible versions of my book as a 2023 Christmas gift for their members. After another $12k for recordings and an 'agreement' of over $100k of purchases, the Dr. "is nowhere to be found" and my "agent" Toni will not return my calls or e-mails, since January 2024. I tracked down this Dr but no response. Sincerely, Sad and embarrassed.

This website is a scam. My account was suspended despite following all the rules. I even sold one photo that I will not get paid for. They take advantage of photographers and customers. Don't recommend.

I noticed that two photographs of the moon were labeled as unavailable for license. One was on a site, posted by me, and one was only posted on Twenty20. I had received the advice to "try posting on Twenty20 first" to prevent having a photo rejected. I see now that it doesn't matter. I have done the photographer verification routine twice now. Once was over 6 months ago and that last one was yesterday. The problem I have with Twenty20 is the response to issues. The canned responses tell me NOBODY is reading the emails. NOBODY is doing anything about the problems and their excuse is the spammers and work load. I had an email chain on this same issue last month and was assured, they appreciated the information. I am sorry, but, assurance should translate to action and it does not. I suggested that they approved ALL images for commercial use that have only leaves, ocean, clouds, etc. but that didn't get me anywhere. I KNOW that a simple email to me verifying where they saw that picture and proof of ownership would go a long way to making photographers (the source of their income) significant. I cannot see without going through each photo individually which ones are not licensed. I never get notification - how hard would that be? I was suspended once and it took two weeks to get back. Sorry Twenty20, since you got bought out by Envato, you now are no longer a great place to post pictures. You should look at your competitor, EyeEm. Maybe hire their software genius.

I joined Twenty20 as a photographer a few years ago and initially liked it, but a lot has changed since then and my overall experience isn't too good. Some time ago, they changed their formerly transparent contributor revenue system to a new model called "Subscriber Share" which is very intransparent - you never know how much you'll make for a photo sale. Their criteria if your photo will be classified as only available for editorial use or for full commercial use are also intransparent - I often have two very similar photos and one will be classified as editorial use only and one as commercial use, even though the first one doesn't show anyone's face, property etc and should qualify for full commercial use. The classification often seems very arbitrary. It seems to happen more often now than in the past. Another new development is that photographer accounts can get suspended even though the person follows all rules (another reviewer already mentioned it). It looks like their algorithm scans the internet for photos that are on Twenty20 and the suspension apparantly happens automatically as soon as they are found elsewhere which isn't okay because photographers own the copyright and can sell and post their work wherever they want to! To me, the suspension looks like a way to pressure photographers to remove their photos from other stock photo sites, very sad.
