Title: uploading and attaching release? a joke!
Post by: lagereek on October 03, 2010, 10:59

Never come accross anything more messy then trying to upload and attach releases then this site, in flickering in between the files, releases, etc, there are no OK-buttons, nothing that indicates anything? leaving you to move back and forth like a wally.
Cant they, after all this time try to make it a bit more logical?

I guess you must be doing something differently than I am. I find 123RF's method by far the easiest and quickest (once I noticed the site doesn't need an OK button, I'll give you that)

Here's what I do:
1. Upload all releases prior to transferring files from FTP to the submit page.
2. Transfer the files from FTP to the Submit page
3. Select all model releases relevant to the images I'm about to submit (even if a model only appears once in a series)
4. Check the appropriate boxes for the models in a particular image
5. Navigate away from the page.

Always works for me.

Hi Lagereek. I had the same issue you're having about a month ago. If you upload the release before the images you can't attach it immediately and -- although it seemed to upload okay -- it doesn't appear listed with your other model releases. My solution was to upload the release after the first photo(s) of the model. That way you can check the 'attach release... ' button immediately after the release has uploaded. Once the release has been attached to one photo it appears in the list with the other model releases ready for future use.
