Title: Small online tool for iStock submitters
Post by: pkirillov on June 04, 2010, 06:54

Hello there,

On my website I have just published a small but handy tool to generate UBB codes for iStock. Using that online form, you can in fast and easy manner place the links to the other images from your portfolio. You can always do it by hand of course, but why don't you save a couple of minutes!

http://www.microstocks.net/services/istockphoto-description (http://www.microstocks.net/services/istockphoto-description)

The page in Russian so far. But the tool itself is quite easy to use.
Put the image numbers into the first text field, put description text into the second one (optional) and click the left button to preview your description and then click on the second button to get UBB code.

Just give it a try and let me know what you think!

thanks for the info, but have you checked out DeepMeta.  It goes even quicker.

Totally off topic but I like your site design and the theme a lot. Very professional and usable. I came across so many ugly designed sites the past week, and this one is a relief. Makes me want to look into Drupal instead of Wordpress.

Yes, sure. you can put generated UBB code using Deepmeta

Or still do it manually by hand. Forconvenience on under the generated code I supply quick edit links for each image ID.

What exactly do you mean? Are you looking for fast way to get all the IDs what you need?
Well, now I am thinking about making the browse button where you can to look up for images from your portfolio.

Thanks for idea. And I am glad that it becomes useful for someone! If you have more ideas on how to impove the tool, don't hesitate to share them :)
