Not that slow.  I have two small batches pending from 2-3 days which is long during the week though.

I have a batch of 10 waiting for review since Monday (8th) - that's the first time I remember IStock being not the last agency to review my pics  ;D Also my sales are abysmal on 123RF in December...

Yeah - I had to wait for about five days for reviews! And the sales are much worse than in November.

Was just looking to see if anyone has this problem. I have some pending review from Thursday 12/11... not long enough to complain but longer than normal. Hopefully will clear up this week.

I have submitted about 7 small batches of 4-8 images so far this month, and until yesterday none were inspected.  Yesterday, they went through and reviewed all than had model releases (about 6 or so), which were scattered throughout the various batches.  The rest all remain as pending.  Kind of weird.

Selective reviewing, huh? Must be a backlog & they are picking & choosing ones they want more... my guess. Mine are still waiting  :-X

Hi all:

I know this thread is a little outdated, but I was wondering if any contributor to 123RF is experiencing slow review. I have images in queue for over a week and they are still pending. What is the experience of everyone else?

I have several images in queue too. 123RF had a seller area problem on the site a while ago. They fixed the site issue pretty fast.  My guess is they've had to work through the queue that got backed up then.

The 123RF reviews are always selective - model release shots get reviewed separately from the non-model shots.  That's my experience anyways.  My MR shots are always reviewed lightning quick, like 1-2 days.  My non-model shots can sit 4-5 days almost every time.

123RF finally cleared my images off their queue. Thanks 123RF!

Reviews of vectors seemed to stop for several days. Then they began again after the Super Bowl. Coincidence? Or the reviewers are Steeler fans?

Mantonino, I have the same experience. MR images are reviewed in a day or two, but the others wait for 4-5 days at least. I am still waiting for my last batch. Funny thing is, in the same time, my friend's images got reviewed in 2-3 days with a batch with no MR.

Just got a batch of MR images approved in less than 24 hours.
