Title: What is wrong with this vector?
Post by: archibald1221 on March 08, 2011, 01:44
Hello,
I'm a contributor in microstock sites. I'm working mostly with vector graphics. The problem is that Shutterstock quite often rejects my vector drawings for this reason: " This file is damaged. Resave from the original and resubmit." Sometimes there's another similar reason: "Glitch--File is corrupt or will not open properly, or there was another technical problem". Other agencies (fotolia, dreamstime, 123rf) accepts these files without any problems, and those files files in my computer are working perfectly well. I'd like to know, what could be wrong with these vector illustrations? maybe i am doing something wrong - for example i'm using too many transparent objects, effects or is it something else?

Download this vector file from my webpage:

Does this eps work on Your computer well? can you open it with Your software?
I'd like to hear some opinions :)

I have same problems when saving in CS5, looks like you use CS 3 but problem is absolutely same. I tried to discuss it with SS and then it worked well for short time (they wrote "problem solved - no more glitches") but it's same again. Unfortunately the only way that works for me reliably is opening file in old AI10 software, copy image to blank document and save.
I think that there is something wrong in scripting of eps that says to their system that file is wrong.
I know absolutely nothing about script but this "%ADOBeginClientInjection: DocumentHeader "AI11EPS"" looks strange to me.

To VB:You didn't understand something. I'm selling some of my vector illustrations in microstock sites and earn money from it. And in my personal website www.freevectorsonline.com (http://www.freevectorsonline.com) i upload different vectors, which are completely free. So there's nothing wrong with my logic.
