Title: Editorial Questions
Post by: 123XXX on January 19, 2011, 05:02
I am just curious if anyone has seen anything from the admins in regards to editorial on the following:

1 - Whether it will be permissible or not to submit photos as editorial that were previously rejected with a "do not resubmit" from the inspector and that were rejected on the basis on either model release, trademark, or location release?

2 - Also, will there be an Editorial Vetta category?

Cheers...

1. Yes
2. ?
I don't think they're well down the editorial route yet. They don't even seem to have appointed a lead Editorial inspector/moderator. Most of what we see in the Editorial forum is peer speculation.

Thanks so much Sue, but yet what? Can or can't resubmit previously rejected photos with "do not resubmit"?

And there has not been any discussion at all about the issue of Vetta Editorial anywhere from the admins?

I would just resubmit them if they were rejected for logos etc.

If it was rejection for another reason eg noise etc you should either fix them or forget about them and move on.

Yes you can resubmit.
I couldn't possibly say what admins have been discussing, not having access to their (assumed) forum. I don't think they've appointed any Editorial specific admins, at least not that's been announced to the community. E.g. paulywood and bortonia are the hapless admins 'in charge of' the Logos-in-Limbo programme.

If you resubmit, they should be the original image, not Photoshopped to remove logos.  ie., don't just resubmit the Mini photo without the logo on the front.

Thanks for the input Sean. No word though on Editorial Vetta though so far, correct?

Yeah that's what I meant
