--- Quote from: marthamarks on December 06, 2019, 11:51 ---OTOH, the photos attached to the two collections seem to be fixed as the very first ones I assigned to each collection. I'd like to be able to change them, too, but don't know how to do that.

Go to Dashboard - Collections - Select image you want for cover so it has checkmark. In bottom left corner you will see blue button "1 file selected" - click on it and choose "Set as collection cover". I had hard time finding that too. :) Then I un-feature that collection and feature it again, because it doesn't seem to update collection cover. Or I didn't wait long enough.
I still don't know how to change collection title, should be easy but I don't know how.

Thank you, Lina!! I will do that and appreciate the assistance. :)

Unless that changed, when I changed the title, all my links would be broken. But the new links seems to be designed better and don't include the Set name, so maybe that been fixed.
Yes to front image change, I did that long ago as the first image added, is the default cover photo. Last I did that, it just too hours or a day, depending, until the servers updated. Standard SS, you need to wait kind of thing. :)

i use fresh/newest when i send people from my website so they see the latest images

Interesting, search produces newest? Please explain. Mine shows some kind of most popular or whatever that match is. I mean a mix of newest, recent sales and what seems random selections.
Not sure I care if it's newest, but I do like to know what's going on and how to get that if I can.
About me has my website listed, which the front page lists photos by subject and some agency collections. I don't have a link to Adobe, which I should. This thread reminds me to do that.

I use that too before ! But now, I simply can't show my portfolio as newest. How can I do that ? Why shutterstock removed that ?

I would go even further by saying that I would like that my portfolio is not seen at all ;D, except for the buyers.
But, on the other hand, I regularly check other peoples best sellers for inspiration not for copying, and because of my need as a professional to be up to the trends and the overall market pulse. I guess most of the photographers do the same and that the copycats are in the minority.
So, at the end, having the most downloaded and the most popular options are a good thing.

Missing fresh button is good news for me. I have a copycat that releases similar illustrations within days of my own releases. I want to see his expression now ;D
