You have to go through their review process first to be accepted but I don't find it to be very hard submitting there. My link is at the bottom if you want to use it. Any more questions just ask


And you are required to pick at least one catagory

Not the best one in industry. At least they got ftp but later it's very frustrating. One category is mandatory. Bulk editing is very primitive so you can easily overwrite meta data if you select two images with different ones.

Add to this that server seems to be overloaded and constantly logs you out :-)

I got around 4000 images uploaded there but I cannot stand processing more than 200 at one session. Even Veer got better user interface.

I am saying it's the worst but comparing to YAY or CanStockPhoto it's just little cumbersome for me. If they fix server problems which cause logging me out on every click, I will suffer to my next 250 photos accepted and next payout ;-)

Not only that. If either title or description contain quotes (like "fishermen's boat"), the title and/or description will be reported as too long.
Then, 160 characters for the description is really too short. Most of mine are truncated. I settled for the 220 limit on SS.
Finally, the title is taken from the IPTC field "object name", as most sites (except SS) do, but if there is something in the IPTC field "headline", it takes precedence. That's very annoying for me since no site uses that field, and I use it to put in the model's name. I have to replace manually the title of all images with a model. I wish they sticked at least to de facto rules of IPTC usage and size of the other sites.

I find the upload and submitting process fast. Not as fast as YAY Micro but faster then SS, DT, FT and others. On top of it you get payed for the first 500 images and they have a good referral and affiliate program. Hope the start advertising soon so that there will be more sales.

I haven't had any problems with there server. Never got logged out. The site always responds fast. Review times is usually a couple of days and the rejection rate is low. Most rejection are because of "similar images".

i really like the uploading system. it's pretty fast and very easy to submit all the photos .... but i think the reviewing times are a little bit long ...after acception i submitted my first batch of photos nearly one week ago and they are still under review :-(

here is my referral link, would appreciate it

They were very quick with their review times at first but now I find they take 6 or 7 days. It depends rather you upload close to the weekends. They are sorta like shutterstock in that aspect because I don't believe they review on weekends.

Interesting and impressive for a new site - coming out of blue to #13 by traffic (among sites I track)

yeah as for this past weekend, my submission was reviewed in SS,
but nothing moved in DP.

Some of my photos are approved for selling, but I didn't get my 0,20$ per upload?
When?

 Thanks Stu!

Also!

Prepare for impact!!!
