Title: Kudos for Big Stock
Post by: WarrenPrice on February 09, 2011, 11:15

My photo was rejected.  But ... for the first time ever (I think) a reviewer gave a specific reason for rejecting a specific image:

Reason: blown out highlight in the rice. thank you.

Can't get much more specific than that.

PS:  I knew the highlight was blown but thought it could sneak through.  BS saved me the embarrassment of having a buyer think my photography sucks. 

Thank you Big Stock.

Thanks Warren,

I'll pass this to the content and review team and I'm sure they'll appreciate it.   :)

Best,

Scott

You remind me of my favorite saying  "I have standards, they're low, but I HAVE standards"  (say the caps with stronger emphasis).  Maybe it is time to raise your standards a tad; blown highlights are for newbies.

 ;D  Probably true.  Must be the WalMart in me.

Still, it was a step in the right direction for BigStock reviewers.  I wish all my blown highlights could be so specifically noted.
