They never ignored my support tickets, they told me the EL price was a bug and was fixed but it's still set to 10cr when uploading. Will be only a matter of time till they fix it I guess.
I've got to be honest, unlike others here I have never had issues with support or reviews on FT.
Also, I don't know what they did to the search engine but it's good to promote/sell new work (finally)

For now just take notice of those checkmarks (which is already fixed for me) and EL price when uploading.

Pardon my ignorance I'm pretty new to FT but what should the EL price be??

As my good friend Luis points out, just set it at max.

luissantos84 · « **Reply #28 on:** August 19, 2012, 13:53 »

regarding setting them to the max I have noticed different strategies, I have them at 50 but can have them at 100 as silver

I have seen silver and higher ranking having 20, 45, 85 and 95 (even one selling them for 10)

what works best? have no idea but EL ain´t the strong of them anyway

The ELs are still defaulting to 10 to me, so if they were going to fix it, they were full of it.

Same for me

Wim · « **Reply #32 on:** September 07, 2012, 14:28 »

Same here but I'm already used to it

part of the upload process.
I hope this goes for everyone btw, that means big sellers too.

My photos are so bad they even declined it for the 'free' section!

Not bad! They have me on 'auto-delete'...

i just had another batch change its defaults without my noticing it, generating a bunch of free and 'exclusive' images

have to wonder whther they even HAVE a tech dept since they've claimed this bug to be fixed so many times!

They are complete whores, unethical, have incompetent reviewers and will die a quick death with their sponge policies. My personal perception of FT is of a group of 2-3 people sitting in a dark, smoke filled room drinking and laughing, asking how they can further suck the life blood out of the contributor. And they DESERVE this reputation.

just discovered yet anpother bug in their system -- if you upload any new images, the defaults revert to exclusive & free -- they're now claiming dozens of my images are exclusive and listing them for free -- and of course their designers nevwer bothered to include a bulk delete function -- as a programmer, this is just ridiculous, but unfortunately more & more common -- incompetent designs are released & they expect users to debug the software

their support just sends a boilerplate saying they'll ask support and they then close the case without ever testing to see if anything's been fixed.

Just searched the forum as I am also having this added to free section problem. Just noticed the change to my defaults. Thanks for the posts. I thought I was doing something wrong.
