Yes in a very good mood until last week and they start all over again with rejections.
But they have now nicer rejections reasons..................lol

I've had every submission lately rejected. Several hundred images all for the exact same reason. - all for 'composition of lighting' whatever . that means.  These aren't new images, but images that are on and selling at other sites, including some best sellers.

I've asked them to terminate my account.

Good luck with that one too, I requested my account to be cancelled about a month ago, then 3 weeks ago someone from Crestock wanted me to emailed them with a confirmation...guess what, my account still active.

I don't get why people continue to upload to Crestock after they repeatedly refuse 90% to 100% of uploads - for the most ridiculous of reasons. Especially if they are good images that are selling elsewhere. What a waste of time. But I like to have them around because it is entertaining to go to the forum and read the drama. Contributors not getting paid, not getting responses from helpdesk and round round it goes. They make the other sites look like they should get awards for customer service!

After asking a couple of times politely, I made a row on their forum and here, and that did the trick. Good riddance.

Thanks FlemishDreams, I'll give that a try, even though I was not rude in my request for cancellation, maybe persistence is the key to get them out of my hair.

Best regards.

Related to this, I have one little thing that keep on getting into my inbox. I have uploaded around 140 images to crestock, keeping up a steady rejection rate of exactly 100,00 %      (not everyone can brag about such numbers  )

THis is a quote from my mailbox:

Hi,

We haven't seen you around for a while, and we've missed you, so we just wanted to say hi.

So even though they keep on rejecting every single image that I have uploaded, and my current portfolio contains ZERO images, they still feel the need to express how much they're missing me... 

This seems a bit funny, since they're the ones being so persistant, keeping me from participating....         Not that I loose much sleep at night, due to this, of course....


I just wonder, what exiting images are growing thair portfolio, since every body is complaining about close to 100% rejection rate ...?

Something unbelievable at me today!!!

5/5 accepted at Crestock!!!

Borg, it was a mistake! Hahaha
Congratulations!

We feel the overall production level of this image could have been better. This could cover styling, props or the appropriateness of your models to the content of the image. Thanks, Crestock.

Well - that is something! You may think it is nothing special - but then you must know it was a portrait of a ...
...
...rat!
Next time I am going to employ a stylist - to be able to earn .25 USD.

High Rejection Rate + Low Commission Pay = No Activity by Me (at Crestock).

Very BAD formula for success.

Same here....a real waste of my time....images that I upload to elsewhere are doing very well but have all been reject at Crestock.(Their loss)..I've sent them an email 3 different times over the past 6 months to terminate my account and haven't got a response to any of them. I just stopped uploading to them. 

Wow...just submitted my photos and had all but 8 out of 26 rejected for "not being up to their standards." They also reviewed them about ten minutes after I submitted them, if they are able to review photos that fast they must be really slow right now.

Im wondering if things are starting to slow down because so many people have stopped submitting, maybe someone over there should check out this thread.

rest asured that JOSH is checking this thread! 
- He does that on a regular basis, but he almost NEVER ever engage in any dialogue being remotely critical to CRESTOCK. Nor does he almost NEVER comment on any direct questions.

But then again, this is very much in line with the uncountable complaints of not recieving any ansvers when emailing crestock....  (strange business attitude though! )

I think so!

I have to contact support, this is unusual bug!! 

I am no longer under the employ of Crestock. Contact their support staff at evaluations [at] crestock.com

All the best,

Josh

Good luck!

I wonder how many photo's they accept a day and what the rejection rate is for the whole site.  I think out of my 300 images they rejected all but 2

It´s weird. For me it´s exactly the same, but the other way around.   They have accepted almost everything.  Even my earliest regrets...

I went to go check out your work, and your button does not work...its comes up with no images.  You might want to double check that you typed in your user name right.

Josh gone from Crestock?

SHIP IS SINKING! I hope it will sink so deep that no one finds it ever...

LOL!

Josh was the greatest asset Crestock had in their human resources... Now... They will just sink as ship blown by torpedo.

Amen to that!

Correct. Great guy. I managed to escape the Titanic after many ignored attempts so I won't comment on CS any more. I left LuckyOliver too 5 months before it went down. When the band starts playing, it's time to go.
