Author Topic: PNG files (Read 1082 times)

I received an email from DP announcing that they are now accepting PNG files and encouraging uploads.

I went to the DP web site and did some searches - the filter box doesn't give PNG as an option and other filters don't specify transparent background etc. There are already some PNG files in the library but unlike Adobe these don't show a chequered background. So at the moment there doesn't appear to be any way a buyer can filter for PNG files with transparent background.

So I'm in two minds. Perhaps DP will introduce additional search options in the future. Perhaps not.

Thoughts anyone?

It's pretty standard when they introduce something new...wait until there's plenty to choose from before announcing it. If they added a png filter straight away, then people would be a bit disappointed if they only got 1, 10 or 100 images to choose from.

Interesting, thank you for pointing this out.

My first batch was accepted without any rejections. Now I will upload the rest.

No sales yet, but I think they are waiting to have enough files before they go live.
