Title: hm.... something must be wrong...
Post by: Peter on February 10, 2008, 02:34
I uploaded about 1000 images on StockXpert (in past few days), and transfered my first 50 (50 per day is limit) from my briefcase to review yesterday. Those were some of my first images with my dSLR, which means not so perfect in terms of isolaton, better images are yet to come. Also, there were 3-4 sets, with simmilar images, in some degree (not too much simmilar, but not too much different), and guess what? All of them aproved?! I heard a lot of bad stories about StockXpert, and I just cant believe that all of my first 50 are aproved! LOL! I hope that will continue, I am starting to like StockXpert already! hhhhh

Anyway, I didnt put "isolated" keyword,  ;D

This is the example what I mean by "not so perfect images, and simmilar", and I say, better images are yet to come! Whopie! I hope I will not loose my "beginners luck" hehehe.

For me StockXpert and IS have the best reviewers. That not mean it's there I have the most accepted files.

I have more rejections at IS that I find annoying. But the reviewer write sometimes exactly what is the problem in the e-mail and that make the difference between an "I don't believe it" rejection and a correct one.

The worst is DT in my case whit the most of "I don't believe it"

I also don't have much problems with StockXpert, except for the "we're not looking for this kind of image" (especially when buyers do - elsewhere at least!).

And I do use "isolated" a lot.  :)

I also have no problem with StockXpert reviewers. They do indeed sometimes reject photos because "they're not looking for this kind of image"... but I have no problem with that as I understand that kind of rejection. IS do reject a lot more pictures for that reason.

I think that you will have no problem at StockXpert with your portfolio Chode.

38 days since I signed up to StockXpert, about 1700 images online, and today I asked for my first 50$ via moneybookers. yeee...  ;D

how long does it take for them to process a payment?


I had not very nice opinion of StockXpert before I signed to it, but now, I like this site! It is not the best earner, but it is a nice money booster for me. :)


I still have about 2000 images to upload. :)

I can take a couple of days to 2 weeks for then to process payments.  They are one of the slowest for me.

My initial app submitted 3/8 accepted today. Now it's time to try and get around their upload process. Seems a bit wonky, but will get through it I am sure.

Well I got rejected. Funny cos the images that I sent were ok for SS and IS application. They should at least say whats wrong with them. Now I have a month to come up with better 5 :D
