Title: ProStockMaster upload problems to 123rf and BigStock
Post by: packerguy on March 09, 2010, 08:33

Has anyone else had problems with uploads to 123rf and BigStock lately using ProStockMaster?  I uploaded 5 images on Sunday and 5 more on Monday but they never show up on the 123rf or BigStock, other sites work fine.

I've given up on ProStockMaster. They were good about a year and a half ago, but can't keep up with changing stock site requirements.

I still use it for keywording. Works well for that.

Yes !  me too.  I assume it's due to the recent changes on both sites !?  A new server address on one of them, I believe.

Same problems with PicNiche, but Bob has fixed that :)  Think we'll just have to wait and upload by other means, for the time being.

I see we're still showing the old Icons here too !!

regarding 123RF, I have problems uploading with FTP as well (password rejected or too many connections)

I don't know about prostockmaster, but if it uses FTP to upload, the problem may be on the 123RF side

A fix has been released (see announcement below from Prostockmaster Blog).  I have not tried it yet.

version 1.7.3 released
This release fixes Bigstockphoto and 123rf interaction, Dreamstime and Fotloia statistics. We also took off Stockxpert due to their merge with iStockphoto.

I don't have an issue with 123, but the last 3 uploads to BigStock have failed to appear in their unfinished images section. They are shown as uploaded by PSM, but nothing on the site. BigStock won't confirm if the images are there and not being shown for some reason.

Anyone have issues with PSM and BigStock recently?

Even with the upload issues, I found PSM very useful for keywording ... except for the 'trial issue' limitations.  I might try it again for free but found the entire "stock support" industry far too unstable to purchase.  The instability, I think, was mostly because the agencies were leery of allowing access by "after market" software developers.  In any case, neither this nor cushystock is on my wish list.

I may look at the free package but have already found acceptable alternatives.

It says it is updating the application but once you quit and open it again it tries to update the application again. Just tried to upload a couple of photos to BS but nothing showed up. The update didn't work. :-[
