Is it just for non-exclusives?

no.
I get this message too, and I'm exclusive.

I can't add all my new irrevelent keywords anymore

Maybe it has something to do with this announcement:

you are hilarious 

I just uploaded a file. 

I uploaded yesterday, and their system couln't retrieve my ITCP data. Perhaps that had to be fixed.

I wonder if this has something to do with an issue I emailed them about on Monday. (Maybe others did too)  I uploaded 23 images on Oct. 28.  On Nov. 6-7 several of them were inspected but 7 of them were still left out there.  On Monday I emailed contributor relations and got a response back remarkably quick. (few hours)  Below is their response:

QuoteUnfortunately, there was a database error with these files which was preventing them from entering the inspection queue.  We have re-processed the files on your behalf and they will be back in the inspection queue by Wednesday at the latest.  If the files are not inspected by this time, please do contact us again.  We do apologize for any inconvenience.

Oops. I spoke too soon. That upload is now showing as a broken image.

It's too bad istock is such a buggy site. It seems like every week it's something else that breaks down. The ten other sites I work with collectively have fewer technical problems than istock.

I uploaded two images yesterday and they seem to have been uploaded correctly. IS doesn't read my IPTC data, so I did not notice anything odd.  Thumbs are there.
