Title: CanStock has FTP !
Post by: berryspun on April 13, 2007, 14:49

What a relief!  I tried the new FTP (via the free FileZilla software), and it works  :)

They now have 4 upload options to choose from:

FTP
ActiveX
Java
HTML

Well, life gets simpler everyday!

Now, if IS would do the same...

Most excellent news I will start submitting regularly again if only they would start to sell a few more images.

I wish Is would do the same I recently doubled my RAM to 1 GB and imagemanager slows everything right down and takes ages to load up.

Has anyone tried deleting their rejected images from imagemanger does it speed things up?

I tried the HTML uploader and it's working fine.

The auto-category worked well for most images. In some I had to make adjustments.

The auto-keyword suggestion feature is quite good!  In each photo I received 2 to 4 new keywords, some I think are a bit of a stretch, some are just perfect. 

I think I will change my upload workflow to StockXpert 1st (for image review) and CanStockPhoto 2nd (for keywords).

FireFTP via Firefox worked well for me.  :)

I upload images to StockXpert first because they're fast to review and, except for the "we don't need this type of image", often their rejections give me good feedback, so I get an improved image.

Now I will upload to CanStockPhoto next, get a couple of good new keywords and include in the files before submitting to others (and included them in StockXpert also, of course).

I am very impress by CanStockPhoto auto keyword suggestion and automatic catergory insertion. All i need to do after FTP is to approve them
