I have tried some vector with a software named stocksubmitter. But all the file uploaded, turned into JPG file as a illustration.

I'm not sure there's been any change since http://discussion.alamy.com/index.php?/topic/1022-why-not-sell-vectors (http://discussion.alamy.com/index.php?/topic/1022-why-not-sell-vectors)

If you've got over 250 vectors to submit as .eps files then please email [email protected] who will be happy to help.

We are working on improvements to the upload tools which will soon allow .eps files to be uploaded directly with regular images.

Cheers

No, they emailed me a few weeks ago asking me to join but still don't allow you to upload directly to the site. They said that would happen "in a couple of weeks," but I believe they said that last year too.

I think it is always 2 weeks away.  ;)

FTP for vectors is just about ready, the two weeks are up. :)

If you want an ftp route to send us vectors please email [email protected] and we'll set this up.

FTP roll out for all photo submissions is planned to be rolled out gradually to everyone over the next 5 weeks.

I heard from Alamy a while back that you need at least 500 vectors to be able to become a contributor. But in this thread I see that 250 is the minimum. So which is it?

With FTP there will be no minimum amount.

The previous minimum was in place when the upload process for vectors was more manual.
