Title: Passive uploads
Post by: vuk8691 on December 20, 2017, 18:27

Hi,
Is there some agency except Shutterstock where I can submit photos and keep it passive?

Please explain what a "passive upload" is.

For me, a passive upload would be something like Dropbox. Stick it in there and forget about it... turn your computer off and it'll start automatically where it left off when you fire it up again.

Seeing that's not something that Shutterstock offers as far as I'm aware, I'm assuming he might be on about a passive income? If that's the case then pretty much every site operates that way. Upload your stuff, forget about it, watch the payments roll in.

Or you're on about something completely different! A bit of clarification would be nice!

I assumed they were looking for sites where you can upload and get files approved but not have them go live until later.
This would be useful eg for someone in the process of leaving iS exclusivity.

I know about two others only where you can disable (deactivate) your files, DT and DP,if that is what you want to do.
