Title: Uploads disappearing...
Post by: leszek on May 17, 2008, 01:20
...at IStock.
One week ago I uploaded 15 images. My uploader says 15 images uploaded OK, IS says received 15 images. All show up in the "Active/Pending Images" queue. All is OK with the world.

This week, I uploaded anpther 15 pics. The uploader says: 15 images uploaded successfully. IS says: 15 images uploaded. But...in the "Active/Pending images" I only see 11 new images. Also, Total Uploads count shows the number of all images I uploaded, minus the "disappeared" pics. So - are they gone for good ?

Did this happen to anyone else ?  I do not mind uploading these pics again - but what bugs me, is that my upload limit is used up. If this continues, I will be using the upload limit just to reload the images which should be on the IS server, except that...they disappear  >:(


On the positive note, though, the first 3 approved images are online and I got the very first download - $0.75  ;D

OK, false alarm. Eleven of the uploaded images showed up directly in the "Active/Pending" list, but four have been stuck as "Unfinished", which I have discovered only after clicking on the "Upload" button. So, I have finished up whatever needed finishing - but it is confusing... ???

I upload one image in the morning and one at night at IS. This way there is always something going on with the approval process and makes it all a little less cumbersome.
