Title: DeepMeta illustration uploading problem
Post by: superdone on February 02, 2016, 11:53: Hi,
I started to use Deepmeta on Win10
I succeed in keywording and uploading some photos.

I succeed in keywording some illustrations (jpeg+eps) but I failed in uploading. The process does three tentatives to upload them without any success.

I wonder where I am wrong with illustrations. I can't understand why not working with illustrations......I repeated the same workflow of the photos.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

I'll try. Does Reinstalling mean loosing the (local) database??

Meanwhile, have you tried uploading directly via the site?

Post by: superdone on February 03, 2016, 18:30: I think the problem was that I have never uploaded any illustrations via the site. Now I have just uploaded three vectors and I am waiting to get the green light even for illustrations (as for photos) :-)

Post by: ShadySue on February 03, 2016, 18:45: Sorry, as you can see, I don't do vectors.
However, I'm sure you can read the training manual as well as I can:

(Didn't you have to read it and do a test on it before you were accepted?)

Just a question: have you passed the iStock exam for illustrations?
I asked this because I had the similar problem as you.
After a while I have remembered that the exam for photos does not open the access for illustrations too.
