Dear all!
Am a very new member to the microstock community so i guess you can all imagine the hurdles i am trying to get through! I have now managed to upload several images on Dreamstime, using one MR per model. Uploading the same images to iStock, i am learning that images taken on different points in time need separate MR's. As most of my photos are of my kids, this is a huge hassle, but hey what can i do. Unfort i spent the weekend uploading loads of images to iStock, each model using the same MR. Now my question: all these will obv be rejected due to not having an acceptable MR. Is there any way i can already go in and change the MR; i.e. to delete the old ones and scan in new ones?

It might be worth your while downloading a copy of DeepMeta (see http://www.istockphoto.com/forum_messages.php?threadid=86866), which is a useful tool for iStock anyway.

In this case though, I'm not sure it will help much because I don't think it can change the existing uploads, so you'll still have a lot of hassle getting it sorted - though it may be useful in that you could fetch the data from iStock and copy across to new entries, at least you won't have to re-keyword each individually, and when ready to upload you can just set it going and leave it.

You could call iStock support and ask for their advice - they may be able to help somehow, perhaps by deleting the current model releases so you can go back in and just upload the new ones.  Worth a try.

You can upload a new release here: http://www.istockphoto.com/file_modelrelease_upload.php?id=XXXXXX

If you were using DeepMeta, you can change the linked release and re-send it.

Good to know, Sean, thanks for that tip.

Thank you all for your replies! Guess we all have to learn the hard way...
