I would love to hear your thoughts on the contributor area - any suggestions for improvement or general feedback would be greatly welcomed.

FTP, please

Honestly, without FTP, the upload process is so slow; it will take weeks to get the 250 images online needed for the bonus.

Even with my creepy slow internet in Far East Russia, I can Filezilla FTP 40 images in an hour.  I have been on your site for an hour and have not completed five images.

Furthermore, with FTP, I can upload to multiple sites through lightburner; with your upload system, it is you and only you.

If you can install a facility within your website where contributors can request for payout rather than sending you an invoice, would be a good feature to have.

i got some royalties in my account, i can't tell is it the sales of my images or the bonus for uploading?

has the bonus had been calculated and paid?

and why there is no FTP? I am not sure is it my internet connection slow since i kept having failure during uploading with no way to resume uploading.

the uploading tool is not reliable at all.

.We now have an FTP set up for contributors. If you wish to use this then please drop us an email and we will set you up with an account. .Johnnie

The bonus program ends Monday, wonder if they will get back to us prior to Monday with the FTP info; there is no way I can upload the bonus images individually to this website without ftp, just to time consuming.

if you check the advertisement poster now, the date is 23 Feb??? it was previously 14 Feb?? so it seems the date is ever changing for 'new contributor'?

I submitted my first 50 images last year end when i saw this thread, and when i checked back the site i saw the poster mentioned 14 Feb, so i thought it is extended period, so i submitted more recently but i was told that the recent uploaded images aren't considered as bonus scheme.

If the date is updated every week for new contributors, i hope it is stated clearly as we are all aware. The poster info is misleading that i thought i am still 'new contributor' under the bonus scheme. I struggled the last few days with the uploading without ftp and realized i get nothing.

I submitted a bunch of photos on the 2nd as a new user, and they still have not been reviewed.  Won't get a bonus if they don't review them.

If I understood the offering, the images must be uploaded by the 14th; but could be accepted after that date and still receive the bonus.  I missed the bonus as my ftp info did not come till the 15th.

Hello,

You are indeed correct, if the images are uploaded before the closing date but accepted afterwards they will still count. Please note we have extended the bonus scheme to the 23rd February to give everyone a chance to use the FTP. Just to be clear this is our second bonus scheme and it is only available to new contributors who have not uploaded images before.

Best regards,

Johnnie

Anyone having any action at isignstock.  Submitted 410 images, no review, unable to submit more as will not accept incoming FTP from lightburner.

I submitted a thousand pictures two weeks ago which are all still in the pending queue, not a good sign.

FTP from lightburner worked for me at the time (I didn't retry recently). Have you set the upload folder?

yes, it was working during the promotion period but quit allowing uploads once the promotion ended.  No worries, since the review is so slow I will put my efforts in other areas.

there is still no info of which images had been downloaded and how much had been paid?

all i got is a sum number of royalties every month. I want to know what had been sold and how much it had been sold.

My files were eventually reviewed. Near 100% acceptance.

All I see is: "March 2011   32,89 + $ 50 bonus"

It's a bit suspicious that the amount in pounds and dollars is roughly the same, so I don't even know if it's $50 bonus plus 32,89 sales or just the 50 dollars bonus expressed in pounds. If 32.89 is sales, it's pretty good since I've been there for one month only.

And I can't find the payment request button. Johnnie said in a previous post: "You will need to request a payout - to do this please send us an invoice which includes PayPal or Moneybookers details", but I'm not sure how it works: should I send an from PayPal or Moneybookers? To which email account?

Isn't is easier for them to add a payment request on the site than for all of us to have to request payment via email?  It's going to be more admin for them as well, I really think they should sort that out or just pay us automatically when we reach their payout level..

I checked mine just now and I have 1.12 pounds plus $25 bonus. I just managed to upload on the very last day of the promotion, but I'm jealous that you got twice the bonus! I think this shows that the pounds bit must be sales though.

Hi there,

These are separate figures. The 32.89 is your royalty for March and the $50 is your upload bonus. A payout request button is at the top of our improvement list and the technical team are currently work on this. In the meantime please drop me an e-mail (johnnieatingrampublishing.com) with your PayPal or Moneybookers address and I will forward this on to our finance department.

Thanks,

Johnnie

Completely agree and as stated above a request payment button is high on our agenda along with a number of other improvements to the contributor area. As always please feel free to drop me an e-mail if you have any questions, suggestions or concerns.

Hi Johnnie,

Possible to give feedback to your management about getting the downloads details information available?

There is no other website just give me a lump sum number of cash, without letting me know which images had been downloaded, and at what price, and how many times it had downloaded. It is not a fair way to us, the contributors.

I would like to know this feature is coming within a date.

Thanks. Then I will wait for the payout request button, or ask for a unique payment every few months.

Having a report of downloaded pictures - not just total earnings - would be nice indeed.
