Kacper - The inital ones take a while but after than it is quick - they dont always tell you though so check your portfolio.  originally they sent you an email listing all approave shots, after than I got an email saying they were approved but with no details.  now I dont get anything.  (this is not a gripe - just a statement).

CJ,

I still receive those emails saying my photos were approved, on occasions telling all but one (and say which one).  This weekend I uploaded and received this message.  It doesn't look like a totally automated thing, as the wording changes, so maybe sometimes they forgot to send it to you.

Regards,
Adelaide

Thanks for all the input guys.  We’re excited about where we’re heading- so it’s always tough when members highlight areas that we’re working on- nonetheless, it’s great to get feedback! We’ve got lots of hard work ahead. Good things are happening everyday. I’ll try and answer some of questions:

1.   Every photographer is important. We try to make an effort to consider all the Olivers and Carnies on the site- we’re not just building a database of images.  In the end there’s always a cheaper photo somewhere else.  We believe people enjoy buying photos with a story- that can’t happen in a vacuum.
2.   We’ve got a few architecture issues that we’re solving…once those are completed things should be smoother.  As a result, we’ve held off on marketing until things are stable.
3.   The model release was a good example of taking some suggestions and coming up with a quick solution.  Hopefully it helps cut some time off the submission process.  Thanks Phil.
4.   We’re open to ideas!  We have a long list of things we’re working on…so your ideas might already be in the queue.
5.   We won’t write too much about our marketing efforts on forums…but we have things gearing up. We’re taking a long term approach that will build the business.
6.   We write feedback on all photos not accepted… if you didn’t get an email…then it probably got eaten by spam filters.

Thanks again.  Keep up the conversation!
