I have an account on 500px but have not heard anything from them about the breach. Change your passwords! 500px offers two factor authentication using Google Authenticator so consider using it.

620 million accounts stolen from 16 hacked websites now for sale on dark web, seller boasts ? The Register

500px is requiring a password reset from all members when you log on.
A mess, but at least they're dealing with it. If you use the same logon credentials for multiple sites, it would make sense to change your passwords for those other sites too.
