Oh well, I certainly messed that up! Managed to add a cockerel and a robin to the Warm Beverages lightbox. I've deleted the code from the iStock descriptions. Do I need to do anything else?

Sorry ...

Leaf,

This image (http://www.istockphoto.com/file_closeup.php?id=3056936) is not being accepted in the summer lightbox ( It looks like you still need to add the appropriate banner to this image), I guess because it has another lightbox banner there.  Do rules limit just one lightbox per image?

Regards,
Adelaide

no it does not matter if you have more than one banner in an image.  You have added the beverages banner though, that is why it is not working.

Maybe I'm an idiot, but I can't seem to find the text I need to paste into my description.  Could you pass it along please, or tell me where to get it?

Thanks

you can click the little c icon beside the box, or just try adding your image to the lightbox without the text, and it will be displayed for you along with an error message.

Leaf, you might want to add an Illustration Lightbox eventually. Just a thought. :)

Hm, I guess you could just title it vector illustrations or something. Maybe make another one titled raster illustrations.

it would be nice to have something more specific.

Post by: vphoto on July 09, 2008, 17:27

why not something like flowers, kids, or sea.

Vector icons, backgrounds, cartoons, flowers; etc. Manga? Or maps?
