Title: Backdoor to review queue
Post by: Magnum on March 24, 2010, 08:40
In a queue of 10 images with 114h reviewtime there is one in the middle with "Image under review".  Thatīs weird !!

And no exclusive box was ticked by mistake...

that happens all the time. If you're lucky you might even see the pending time jump real quick from 172 hrs. to Under Review in only a couple hours  ;D

Yeah, I know,  but only ONE photo in the middle of a batch??

Yes, that happens to me lately too. One or three from the batch of ten and a few days later  the rest is approved.

Yes, mine sometimes go from over 100 hours to approved in less than 24. Makes me wonder if they should even list an estimated time. I know that illustrations get approved quicker and if I upload both, the illustrations jump to the front of the line.

Happened to me too. One image only.
But in my case I think I know why.
The keyword 'Easter'.
It's coming and they're reviewing Easter images first.
They do that from time to time, (pushing holidays images ahead) and not only at DT.

I had that happen with my last two batches that I uploaded.  The top one always got to under review then, depending on the day of the week, have been approved while the rest sit and wait.  I'm glad I'm not the only one seeing this.  It's weird but nice when it's accepted :)

sounds like the review queue version of a letter stuck in the bottom of the mailbag... ;-)

I've had some of those at DT and at istock... usually if it isn't reviewed within a few days of the others a note to support will get it fixed up.

My last upload took one week to be approved and it was only 1 image. DT's slow review times are why I've been uploading to a couple of other sites. I don't have a lot of time to work on stock and then when it takes a week to get stuff approved, it really takes away from the fun.
