Bugs reports belong here: http://www.microstockgroup.com/symbiostock-technical-support/symbiostock-test-build-the-bug-stomping-thread!/

These are no high-priority issues more like, well, wishlists of what could be added/corrected to improve the Symbiostock experience.

1. I'd love to see the images centered on the "product" page. Doesn't really bother me when the image is landscape but don't like it too much when it's vertical.

2. I have no problems giving you and everyone else you mentioned credit to this release but is it possible to add a copyright line to the footer using the admin's name just to emphasize ownership of the content?

3. Could the search function be customized to only search images. If someone wants to use the site just as stock site without any type of blog, it would reduce the clutter a little otherwise the design is nice and clean - don't get me wrong).

Those are my current wishes  ;)

1 - will do.
2 - yes, very important. The "powered by" will be changed to something that can be added or taken away. Wordpress actually has a standard on this I'll check out.
3. Remove "blog" search? I can make an option for that.

Leo, I think we need to be able to offer a wider range of photo sizes. We have a lot of images at 5616px square, which comes out at a Large, and the next size down is 1000px square. We really need something in between, like maybe 2500px and 4000px.

For instance, these are Photoshelter's standard sizes.

   Web (500 pixels)
   Web - Large (1000 pixels)
   Small (1500 pixels)
   Medium (2500 pixels)
   Large (4000 pixels)
   Original size (5616 pixels)

Your right! The area where you set prices and stuff should have default size values that can be changed. I don't think thats a big change to be honest with you. Could probly have it in a few days.

That would be wonderful to create our own levels - which may a b!tch to code I would imagine... But you can do it  ;D

Would it be possible to have pricing groups? Either on default pricing, or as a bulk way to change the price on similarly priced images?

Not sure if this is possible, but this is the "wish" list right?

- An Extended License option

- Titles included in image search

- User defined default image keywords ( I know... not likely ;) )

- Image sort options

--- when setting global prices, would be nice to have zip files left out.  I may want to reset my entire pricing for image sizes someday, but I cant imagine wanting to change all my zipped collections to the same price

If you lock them does that prevent global pricing affecting them?

Locking an image prevents it from site-wide changes to things like prices, availability, etc. But you can only lock image as a whole, not individual values.
