General information
What is the “Cheers to 30 years of Photoshop” Sale Campaign?
Adobe Photoshop was first released on 19th February 1990. Which means in February 2020 the software is celebrating its 30 year anniversary! Envato Market will mark this occasion with a sale campaign highlighting GraphicRiver’s Photoshop related items.
This campaign will feature 30% off ~100 items from GraphicRiver only on a dedicated campaign landing page, with focus on Photoshop compatible (best selling, trending and new) author-nominated items.
The campaign landing page will be promoted through Envato’s marketing channels, including on-site promotion, email and affiliates. Our “Cheers to 30 years of Photoshop“ campaign will be live between Tuesday, 18th February (5am UTC) and Thursday 20th February (5am UTC) 2020.
Detailed timeline of events
- Friday, 10 January: We launch the nomination process

Nominating items
Are there minimum sales requirements for items in this campaign?
This campaign does not require minimum sales or ratings for item nominations. However, both will factor into our decision on what to include in the campaign. This campaign is for GraphicRiver only.
How do I nominate a Discounted File for this campaign?
Follow the instructions in this thread:
Will the feature section of the landing page be used during this campaign?
Yes, there will be two sections of the landing page to display sale items. The majority of selected items will be displayed in the main sale section, while a limited number of items will receive special exposure in a feature section at the top of the campaign landing page.
The feature items are hand-picked by Envato staff from all items nominated by authors and represent the best Envato Market has to offer. While we can’t promise that your items will definitely be chosen, we’d love to see the best of your portfolio nominated for consideration.
All items will be displayed for the full duration of the campaign period.
Item selection
How and when will I be told if my item(s) are chosen to be on the landing page?
We will contact all authors whose items are selected for promotion on the landing page by Tuesday 28th January. Please note that we will only contact authors whose items have been selected for promotion on our campaign page.
What if I want to withdraw my nomination?
If you’ve changed your mind, please contact us via communitymarketing@envato.com and we will remove your item nomination.
If my item is selected will it remain on the landing page throughout the entire promotion?
Probably! We’ll be periodically reviewing the page to make sure we’re putting our best foot forward in promoting great deals for our customers, and to make sure buying customers have certainty around pricing and the extent of discounts.
For items to stay on the landing page, they’ll have to meet the promotional criteria for the whole campaign period. So for those items which do not meet the promotional criteria (ie, if you remove the discount, or attempt to re-price relevant sale items during the sale period), either:
- those items will automatically be removed from the promotion page (but will of course remain for sale on Envato Market); or
- the discount will automatically re-applied, at the previously determined discounted rate.
Plus to maintain a cohesive ‘look and feel’ we reserve the right to add or remove items from the landing page for any reason in our sole discretion.
Will you add more items during the sale?
We occasionally need to add new items during a promotion, if other items have been removed from the sale. If we need to add additional items during the campaign, we’ll select these from the main campaign nomination list, and contact the authors via their Envato Market email address. We’ll aim to provide at least 24 hours notice to these authors.
How are items selected?
All items nominated must meet the criteria selection on the nomination threads. Items for the promotional page will then be chosen by the Envato Marketing team.
Who is responsible for changing the price of items?
All item prices will be automatically changed at the beginning of the Campaign sale, between 12am and 5am (UTC) on 18th February 2020. See above about changes to item prices during the campaign period, and what that means for eligibility.
After the promotion ends, you may want to leave a discount in place, manually return the item’s price to its original level, or set a different price altogether. As with all pricing decisions under our Author-Driven Pricing policy, that’s entirely up to you.
What happens after I nominate my item(s)?
- If your item(s) are selected, we will contact you via the email address registered for your Envato Market account.
- We will provide information about how and when your item price will be changed.
- We will provide a marketing image to use on your item page for the duration of the campaign.
- Selected items will be added to our dedicated landing page which will be launched on Tuesday, 18th February at 5am UTC.
