Title: How to delete an image on istock
Post by: astrocady on September 05, 2008, 17:08
I finally talked my wife into shooting more stock photos and am helping her get her port into order....

How do I delete an image on istock?  I've looked all over and can't find the delete button.  I need to delete some she uploaded some time ago.

Thanks,
Steve

You can't delete directly. You can deactivate the file.

Look at the upload list and click the thumbnail of the photo, at the bottom of the page you will have the option to deactivate. Optionally you can specify a reason, I think it's good to write something as 'reason'...

But. I can't see the reason of portfolio cleaning by deleting/deactivating some images. Rarely will buy somebody your images simply because your portfolio is nice.

She has some files both on PhotoShelter and on iStock.  Only a couple, but I'd rather just get them off istock (never sold any) to avoid a potential problem.

Thank you icefront.  You were right on target with your advice.  I don't know how I missed that.  I was on that page 100 times before looking for it!  What can I say -- old age?  Frustration?  Too many V&T's?

Anyway, thanks for your help!
