My experience on 123RF is four to six weeks for inspection. I just upload, submit, and move on.

Normally get reviewed for me between 1 - 2 weeks. Interesting the different experiences...?

They however seem to have got slower the past month or so. Maybe being swamped after the recent attention here and the short lived promotion to top tier.

Editorial images less than a day. Regular images 3 to 7 days usually.

Maybe the holiday weekend has slowed things down. I seem to recall having my files reviewed and online within 3-5 days, but right now I have some pending since the 19th.

same here, pending for 10 days now

13 days and still waiting here

One is a christmas image so hope they review before the christmas rush is over. I've noticed sometimes reviews do take quite a bit longer than other times.

Can't really complain, I've just had my BME at 123rf - in fact I've more than doubled my previous BME - yay

If that is the case, you must really have a small portfolio on 123RF to get such an increase (statistical artifact). The point has been mentioned in another thread by Rinder. Don't mention portoflio's under 1-2K. I get tantrums reading people on the DT forum yelling BME when they had 50 sales. Only the real big guns here can tell what's happening.

I love the way you talk but just for the record I have tracked your sales at DT and you havent had 50 sales in a month, so why all the BS talk?

Sorry but, although there is merit in your statement which reflect general sales at specific sites, I can not agree with your conclusion. You are now telling 70% of the members here that they must basically just shut up about their sales, because they are not "the big guns" who "really" can talk about sales.

When one read a person's post about doubling their income the logical person always have the facts about their port influence in the back of your head and realizes that the person is only sharing his/her experience.

If this is such a big problem and to assist newcomers who does not know who the "big guns" are and in establishing the weight of a person's statements, it might be advised that all state their sales volume and port size then when making any statement about your income at a site.

How does that sound?

PS Hope I had the right to post here, as my sales are much lower than the "you may speak" amount......

Just for the record, I do vectors. It's not as quick as building up a port with photos. With vectors it's a case of one design at a time, and one design can take a couple of days to get just right.

Photo ports seem to grow much more quickly as you can do a number of shoots (or so I've read) and submit them all together.

I was just reporting on my own experience with a vector image portfolio. I may not be one of the 'big guns' but I've never said I was, and I've been building my port consistently for a while now.

Maybe there should be a junior and senior forum, so that us small fray are allowed to share our experiences with each other (it might in any event differ largely from that of the grown-ups whom we clearly irritates with our meager existence)?

Good idea CD123 - we wouldn't get slapped down for reporting our experiences if we had our own "junior forum", and we'd probably have more fun too

By the way, I've just worked out how long it would probably take me to build my port up to 1k - 6 years!!!! Oh well, just another few years to go before I'd be in a position to join the "senior forum"

Give the guy a break. 13 days waiting for a review, but he can't really complain cos he's just has a great month. I can't see what is wrong with saying that. The comment wasn't a "sales are growing at 123rf, look at my stats" type of comment. The guy is just being positive, do u remember the days when u were optimistic before microstock brought you down?

Hey All,

We're experiencing a massive increase in submissions lately.

Thanks for your patience and understanding.
