Right now my allowed submissions is 200 from a normal 50! They want pictures! My estimated review time is 2 hours. If you have stuff to submit, GET TO IT!
-
2 hours? That'll be the day. Better check again, mantonino.
-
Did you get the letters wrong? Did you mean FT? Because I bet their queue is pretty empty right now.

It can't be DT. I just UL one and it says 98 hours.
I still have 4 images pending +-80 hours...

I don't understand why you think the queue wait time is 2 hours. According to what you've written, your files were uploaded on May 30, which means they've been sitting in there for almost 10 days!
I currently have 50 in the queue with times ranging from "n/a - Image under review" (uploaded on June 4) to 82 hours (uploaded last night).

Oh, you're right. I'm such naive! ;)
I just pushed them now. lol They JUST went into the queue. That's the upload date. I could only push 50 at a time - I uploaded almost 500 so yeah it's taking me awhile to push them. I'm submitting all these for review NOW, currently, as we speak.
Hold on....
(btw I'm just trying to help people by sharing info - I don't get why everyone seemed to go on the attack like I did something wrong.)

This is what I'm seeing, right now.

Sorry that you thought I was attacking you, mantonino - I just saw that you were spreading misinformation and wanted to 'plug the leak', that's all.
-
So let me see if I understand then.
I uploaded these 10 days ago - so whenever I get around to submitting them, they go straight to the front of the line? And get reviewed before your stuff you pushed 4 or 5 days ago? And that's the typical behavior?
I'm not sure what the misinfo was - you saw what I saw - 2 hour review time, and 4x my normal submission queue. Are you at least seeing the 4x submissions?
-
I had one "resubmit without a model release" this week, and the resubmit was live within 24 hours. I thought that was pretty good. DT falls behind fairly often - but they always catch up.

Yep, that's the way DT, FT and SS work. Uploading a bunch and then keywording them later so that they can be instantly reviewed is not necessarily a good strategy though.

The misinfo was you declaring "DT queue empty! Go submit!" when the queue is in fact far from empty. You then went on to say that the current review time is 2 hours when it is really 98 hours.
As far as DT 'upping' the limit to 200 goes, they've been known to do this from time to time - nothing new there.
-
I gotcha. I knew SS worked that way. And FT is always nearly-instant reviews for me no matter what I do, same with 123RF. Didn't know DT worked that way at all. I always thought it gave you an approval time based on when you submitted, not uploaded. I saw 2 hours, I saw 4x uploads - I did definitely make a mistake. :)
(In weirder news, I just submitted #201 pending for the evening - it let me keep going but I'm tired! I'll do more tomorrow)
-
I'm allowed uploads has also gone up from 50 to 200. So you were right there. :)
