Title: I need the grease monkey script.
Post by: JPSDK on March 12, 2013, 10:56

I need the grease monkey script.
Im tired of sitting and deleteing my istock files one by one, it takes a lot of time, as it took to get them up there.
But enough is enough and I have decided to delete it all and only leave a cockroach. But.. Please can someone help me and tell me how to install the greasemonkey script, and get it to work.
Else it will take me 20 hours to deactivate my files on istock, and they are not worth that time.

Help please?

Install Greasemonkey into your browser (Google for the site), and then install the myUploads_fixes script here: http://www.istockphoto.com/forum_messages.php?threadid=297012&page=1 (http://www.istockphoto.com/forum_messages.php?threadid=297012&page=1)

Sorry Sean.
I dont understand a word of what you are saying.
And normally Im no IT illiterate.

get the script from where? and install it where? and run it through what application?
Only time i really looked at that script I saw 1000 lines of javascript.

Ja ja. I know, it is me who is stupid.
But thats a fact. I am.

It wouldn't take that long - I did 114 in under an hour manually.

I have 217 files left, it took me ½ hour to delete 10-20 of them yesterday.
The system updates very slowly.

Thanks friends, Thanks for your helpfullness.
I couldnt make sence of running the script in an icon. So I went through the manual process, which was a bit smoother on day 2, where there were less pics( that were not there ) to update.
So now Im down to my goal, 1 picture of a dead cockroach on Istock and I have requested my last payout which I left up there to collect the spills and beans during the deactivation process.

Thanks anyway, and it is such a relief to not have my emotions  played with anymore by such a parasitic agency.
They are now in my bookmark list as Istock(CLOSED) along with a few others.
