that´s weird never had a rejection there I guess, contact them

I haven't uploaded there in a long time.  Just uploaded a big batch a few days ago and I had 32 rejected, mostly for technical issues.  Never had that problem before and some of these have been accepted with every other site I use.  There's really no incentive for me to upload again, as they don't sell much and have become more fussy than the sites that have buyers.

In my last two batches I got a better acceptance ratio with Shutterstock than Yay. The last batch was 20% rejection at SS, 100% at Yay. I sent an email to ask if this was a mistake, but it was logged as a "focus issue". I even sent a test file from the batch to IS, and they accepted it too.

I have had decent sales with Yay, but I don't know if I can be bothered with complaining in detail to them about every issue. Guess they've got a visit by Attila. I'll hold the uploads until he goes on vacation or gets new glasses.

I had a near 100% record with them and then, a few days ago 100% refusal on one batch. I resubmitted and all where accepted. They either had a technical problem or a new reviewer who spilled his beer (brains) on his keyboard's delete button.......

Of the 32 that were put back in the queue, 14 were rejected this time.  That's better, at least they accepted most of the ones that are already selling.

Hi!

We've been getting some complaints on our approval lately, so I've spent the day going through all our latest rejections. Although most of them seems justified, I did see a higher number than normal that should not have been rejected. I discussed this with the team leader for the approvers, Martin, and he would discuss this with his team. He, and I, think it's due to the combination of a new approval system, a new approver and perhaps something as basic as a poorly set screen.

Hopefully we'll fix these issues within a few days. If you feel your images shouldn't have been rejected, please try to resubmit them. You do not have to upload the images again, - there is a "Re-describe"-button you can use.

I can only apologize, and hope in the end this will give us a better approval system.

Thanks,

Linda

PS! I would recommend to wait until next week before re-submitting.

We sent a lot of images back for re-approval today. But, most of them (90%) is because the images are too similar to other images in the portfolio. There might also be some images sent back that shouldn't be. If your images are rejected, and you feel they should not have been - please e-mail me at [email protected]. I'll make sure to look into it for you. Remember to keep the images in the rejected folder, and include your username in the e-mail.

Thanks,

Linda
