Title: Removing / disabling images on alamy.
Post by: topol on June 30, 2014, 08:17

Hi all, I need to remove / disable or in any way make unavailable few of my images on alamy. Does anyone know a workaround on the 180 day lock-in for this?

Contact member services and ask.  They are usually quick to respond.  No way to do it yourself that I know of.

remove all keywords, descriptions, etc. Implement every restriction possible. It's not foolproof but at least it makes your images virtually unsearchable..

I did that, we ended up at the 180 day lock in, unless there is WWII or something.

Removing keywords, descriptions etc is the only workaround, but you must do it BEFORE you disable images.

Thanks for the help. One more thing I kinda vaguely remember reading somewhere is that you could creata a new pseudonym and disable that after making it the 'owner' of the image. Anyone know anything about this?
