Sorry to inform that uploads will be temporarily stopped to facilitate a scheduled maintenance of our storage system.

Been one hell of a maintenance upgrade.

ruxpriencdiam · « **Reply #4 on:** June 18, 2013, 10:21 »

I posted late last night on one of the 123 FB postings about it not working and got a response back on what to do and without doing anything I went to the site and tried and it works but!

It has changed and is different now and now I cant get my files from Processing Queue to Completed Images?

Same for me.

jatrax · « **Reply #6 on:** June 18, 2013, 21:07 »

I had 80 images in the queue in four different batches, 20 showed as approved before this happened the rest in pending. Now all 80 are simply gone. Not in portfolio, not in pending not in history. FTP processing says no images found. Not good.

Well, I'll check again, but per this and another thread, and the post from their tech support, many of us are having a problem. This morning, I didn't try to go past their captcha code, which pops up every time despite saying that I won't see it again. Assumed if that was still broke, then the uploader was also

dbvirago · « **Reply #18 on:** June 20, 2013, 13:05 »

Even stranger considering that after you get past the captcha code and get to the upload page, the button is disabled and the following is there instead.

Hi all,

FYI

I just uploaded to 123rf and it seems to work this morning. I am no longer getting the message "We regret to inform that we will disable queueing of files to process until further notice."

The files uploaded and read as "File currently pending processing". Note: I used the web uploader and not the ftp.

Cheers,

Yes...I too used the web uploader this morning and found that it was stuck on 20% when in the "file currently pending processing". I kept clicking "refresh page" until they went through.

dbvirago · « **Reply #24 on:** June 21, 2013, 10:07 »

I just tried the ftp uploader. You still get the captcha page with the promise that "You will not see this prompt again unless you have logged out."

The button to upload is back, but when you start you get Uploading... Please wait instead of the old screen that showed progress. At this point, I have no idea if it's working or not - going to leave that window running for a while.

This month's sales half of last month, so they will cross the trouble vs worth line quickly

dbvirago · « **Reply #25 on:** June 21, 2013, 12:40 »

three hours later it still say's please wait. I hit refresh and it takes me back to the captcha screen.

I'm done.

cobalt · « **Reply #27 on:** June 22, 2013, 07:57 »

I just tried it and can´t get past the captcha. It keeps redirecting me to the starting page where I have to choose what kind of media to upload.

I´ll check back in a month...

ruxpriencdiam · « **Reply #28 on:** June 22, 2013, 08:47 »

Are the buyers having to jump through all of these hoops?

Because if so they wont be looking for any images with all of the hoops that will be in their way!

pancaketom · « **Reply #29 on:** June 22, 2013, 12:44 »

Well, I did manage eventually to get to the images are in the queue page (although it kicked me back a step a few times for no apparent reason).

You really should remove the text that says "you will not see this again unless you log out" since it seems to be completely untrue.

Good luck getting a fast, reasonable, reliable, and stable upload system working. With your extra 30% or so I expect nothing less.

Jens G · « **Reply #30 on:** June 23, 2013, 09:52 »

It's encouraging to read that got your images to the queue page Tom

I have tried for some days now, with photos that were uploaded using FTP. The files upload OK but all I seem to get when I try to process the uploaded files is: "Uploading...Please Wait...". And I have waited for many hours.

If I connect the FTP, I can see that my files are still there.

Did you try anything different? Or did you just try many times, and suddenly it worked?

My files are moved to pending now. I had been logged out, probably by the 123RF system, and when I logged back in, they were in the pending queue.

Been spinning and working 5 minutes for well over 15-20 plus minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This spinning is just a waste of time and my internet service which is DATA limited so it just burns up DATA doing nothing that I pay for each month and 123's easy upload process was thrown out the window for what may even be more piss poor then what they have over on BS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Got hundreds to upload and can't do a dam thing like this so it looks like time to wait till the cows come home and maybe then it will be fixed or maybe we are going to have to wait till hail freezes over?

Functionality of site is one thing but it seems like they never test usability. Why in heck I have to to do multiple clicks just to see something?

1. I am thinking that processing of FTP uploads should be fully automated with usage of current processing queue. Right now I have to click Upload-> Photos (JPG) radio -> Continue button -> FTP settings / Check Upload FTP Results -> Continue button - I hereby warrant that the photos check box -> Click here to process button. 7 clicks!!!
2. Then if I want to attach releases I have to click More link -> Releases button just to get to selection. Why Referral link is more important that Releases.

If you are expecting a response from 123RF I'd first address them with a little more politeness. Yes it appears broken, yes it's a pain but one doesn't have to be rude about it.

I am a newbie on the 123rf site - so I don't want to make 'waves'.

Hello!

I can verify that we have not disabled our FTP. It is now up and working.

We have also re-enabled our old processing scripts so that when activated it will send the all files in your FTP for processing. You should no longer have any error 404s. This was done to accommodate the automated apps that triggers the processing scripts to us.

Thank you,

Alex.
