Has anybody got this yet? If so, where do/did you find it please?

I believe its a limited / slow role out. If you click on the upload button you get the FTP choice if it is enabled for you. It tells you how to set it up. Mine is set up and works fine.

The main thing is to make sure you choose the STOCK folder when downloading from your client.

Glad that you got it working. I'm not good with these things but it's so easy to upload using the site that I am not really bothered.

Alamy tell me my ftp is enabled, I have set up my sytsem for ftp and a connection is made so the ftp link appears to be ok.
BUT after 3% it stops and fails.
I see I need to specify WHERE the photos go - stock etc - but have no idea where to enter this. My ftp has no such space, and no other site requires it.
Any ideas what to do please?

Ok. For anybody using Stockuploader and not very tekkie (like me) this is what you need to do

:

Go to the config tab and add/edit the alamy agency in the normal way. For STOCK photos, at the end of the ftp address, just add /Stock (so that the entire path includes the folder you want to upload to). This will upload all images to your stock folder.

If you do not shoot editorial or use releases you should be fine. If you need to upload editorial images or releases you need to add a NEW agency with the proper folder in the ftp address.. So you could end up having 3 agencies set up for the one site. One for uploading editorial, one for stock and one for releases.
