RT- Thankyou for pointing out the specifics that I have missed.I wouldn't be able to provide the full service as of yet because I am in the process of moving to New Zealand.But It is definitely in the pipeline.I am thinking of including keywording in the future service.
And I also have to learn to upload to Stock.I don't have an account there at the moment
My first language is actually Australian,So no offence taken at all :-)
I have to agree with you I don't speak good English (more Australian).
I guess all this time in Denmark speaking danish has not improved my limited English:-)
You are more than welcome to check my titles/ category's/keywords on my own images.
Thanks again

I guess you dont have better things to do with your time then what you are doing in this post Ichiro 17

Play nice, all people here are potential clients to you... I would try and convince Ichiro that my intentions are benign.

 :D

I'm going exclusive, so my workflow will be fairly smooth.  And I was at work (day job) so I didn't have much to do.  Thats why I've been more active.  I prefer to view from a distance in most posts.

Given RT's lovely post, I'm just going to add that I'm the type of person that will not give up the keywording even though its a horrible task because it involves access to my personal information.  I don't want to give that away.  If you find someone willing, thats great, but I'm in the group of people that will never look for such a service.  If I was, I would go out and hire a team.  Thats my opinion, and I wish you well.

Why restrict yourself to uploading only? If you could include doing the photography for me too, at 30c a pop for each uploaded image, then I might be interested ;-)

Since when did 'Australian' become a language anyway? I'm even more concerned about your ability to actually do the job now. I'd have thought command of English to native-Degree standard (including good knowledge of American variables) would be an absolute prerequisite of offering this service.

As an Englishman who has visited the US many times over the last 20-odd years I'm still regularly learning US variables. For example my images of 'lasagne' (how the Europeans spell it) never sold particularly well until I started including the US version of 'lasagna' within the keywords. There are hundreds of such details and it is absolutely essential to know the significant ones if you are to maximise sales.

It does sound a bit odd there are no actual details in the offer.  Hey, I'll upload your stuff for some unknown fee, somehow, and Yuri says it's cool.

Hello there  - quick question, would a client send the pics on a CD to you, say 250 at a time? On there would have to be all model release details and depending what they are shooting info on what the pic is if it a particular flower, building, beach etc..

You'd then have to caption the lot in full and upload to maybe eight sites,  probably with upload restrictions as is Istock etc depending on your clients acceptance rate / canister level.

All this for say 30 cents a picture?

Would a slightly better idea be that a client uploaded all of ther own images to the sites by FTP. They send you an email it's all finished, and you log in to all their accounts and with copy and paste finish off the captioning there. Slightly unweildy, but it would probably be just as quick.

Finally, skirting over the login details, don't some sites alredy offer this kind of service?

Good luck with it

Yes I would much prefer your second option, Reasons being that The pictures are then safely on the site and cant get lost in the mail etc :-)

As far as I know the only site that has anything similar is DT with its keymaster program.but correct me if I am wrong.
And yes around that price depending on site.I have not done Istock before and will stay clear of that until I have an account and am confident with the keywording. Contact me out of this post to talk further details :-)

I have not said anywhere that Yuri endorses this I only said I had him as a reference :-)

I do not see it as risky as it seems first. Just think on it! The copy of passport is one thing but... if you do not trust him, you can still withdraw your earnings every week. So in the worst case scenario he is 'stealing' one week but not more. But it is still very unlikely he can do it. On most sites there is a pending time from the request until the actual payment, so you have a very good chance to realize the request in time and cancel it. If he ever tries to do this with anyone's account, everyone will be informed here instantly. Ah well, and you can verify his reference by an email to Yuri. :)

I already have assistance in uploading but otherwise I would be interested.

You all forget we are giving our full size images. So he will have all our images full size on CD or what ever... I dont give anybody my images, unless they buy them :D

Also, I would NEVER give my account details to someone. It is not that I dont trust him, but I just dont want to think about it, and want to sleep peacefully. Maybe he would never steal from me, but I just dont want to think about it.

Fully agree with Peter!

I wouldn't really be happy to give somebody else my full-rez pics, even with a signed NDA or contract whatsoever.

Perhaps I am a bit exaggerated but better to play safe...

What happens if you upload the wrong release with an image from a session with multiple models & releases? Or keyword incorrectly? The image gets rejected because of that, an upload slot is lost and acceptance rate falls. How do you propose to recompense the contributor in that situation?

If I were to do the submitting for somebody I would happily re do the image if it is MY mistake :-)
I wouldnt be keywording right now as I have said further up.
Also I wouldnt want anything todo with CD's and full rez images I would solely be attaching MR's and assigning catagories
It is all explained in my First post.

Apparently there is no thread on this forum too old, already resolved, or irrelevant to be resurrected by Old Hippy.

It's been a nice trip down memory lane. 

Guess I had better get back to doing my small part to undermine the entire photographic industry (and indeed, civilization itself) now ;D

Thank you for your kind offer but I don't need anyone to upload my images as a kindly Nigerian gentleman is giving me several million for allowing me to help him move some money around ...

You're welcome. How is your Barbie doll trading business going or is it Ninjas now? How is your "team" doing? I have a great business opportunity for you by the way. A very rich guy in Nigeria died recently and
