Hello Yayart Team, I remember the start of this website and competition, I win and other people win a contract of 4.800 euro. In the contract was written To get this amount of money we need to sell a lot of Painting, and earning for each sell, 8 euro.

Now.. I sell 19 painting and I supposed to earn 152 euro, but I see in my status my profit is more or less 50 euro... so what happens?

thx Dario

This was in question for me too for a wile, when I asked Sune about this "problem" and he sent me the following, which can be found in the legal terms:

Payment

The artist receives the following payment for each print sold:
Type Size (cm) Payment
90x90 16.00 Euro
60x60 10.70 Euro
30x30 8 Euro
Paper 70x70 3.70 Euro
50x50 2.20 Euro
30x30 0.70 Euro

Hi Dario,
Good to see you again :)

You should actually be please since we've increased the payment from 8€ to 16€ on the big canvases, and from 8€ to 10.70€ on the middle. We didn't make a big legal thing out of it, since we figured most people wouldn't mind a bigger cut :)

And we've introduced prints, which is a whole new source of income, which again, we hope you don't mind. About the 4800€, its always been the maximum earning if an artpeice sell 500 copies of canvas prints. Its always hard to predict sales numbers, and different pieces sell differently, but the possibily to earn it is definitely still there.

We're working very hard here at YayArt to promote the site, and increase our artists sales, but we're not a place where you can sit back and expect to earn 4800€ when you enter our shop. Artists that promote their work sell more. And please remember that buying graphic art is still pretty exotic and new to most people, so people are a bit carefull buying the first time.

However, our sales are increasing every month, and hopefully one day we will be able to have a piece 'Sold Out' :)
