Does anyone else do this, I sometimes report them if I notice something really out of order, however I think the system has bigged down, it appears to take months now for the changes to be reviewed. I just wonder if it's worth the effort.

I used to report keywords because it annoys me so much to see such blatant spamming messing up the searches but a load of the images that I reported about 6 months ago are still at the beginning of searches that they don't belong in so I have given up completely now. eg. one person with the keyword 'group of people'

Occasionally, and if I'm in the right mood.

I do that in DT and IS. Like the other day, I was trying to see how my red satin image was perfoming in IS, because it used to sell well for my standards, but not lately. Then I got a lot of blue, purple and whatever color but red. Also some images with textiles that were anything but silk.

But I'm not mean, so if I see some keyword to be added, I suggest it too in IS. I wished we could do that in DT, but only if we give 10 new keywords, and sometimes it's just a typo that I want to suggest (for instance, if someone writes "pare" instead of "pear").

Regards,
Adelaide

I've given up wikiing pictures on istockphoto long ago. Well, at least almost - sometimes an image just causes a certain level of total frustration about its keywords, and in this case I still can't resist. But it is like fighting windmills - occasionally I discover files with keywords still under review which I had wikied almost a year ago, and there are probably more mistagged pictures uploaded than wikied every day.
