Title: Bigstock - very hard to please?
Post by: Festivalchick100 on April 30, 2015, 04:45

Anyone else finding Bigstock especially hard to please? I've just done their online test and submitted 10 images - all of which are fine at 100% when viewed at home and are all for sale elsewhere on other sites. Yet 6 out of the 10 have been rejected for poor focus...

No issue with them. 96% acceptance rate and rejections are mostly fair.

Bigstock hates sharpening with a passion.

Never do more than a little spot sharpening on areas in focus.

As for BS well I have 95% acceptance rate so far (closer to 99% with recent submissions)

I find them much easier to please than SS.

They also have a problem with the shadow of isolated on white objects.

That's because if you have a shadow it's not isolated

I find BS very easy to submit too and have a good acceptance rate 75% - so I am happy with them, could do with more sales though :)

I think the OP left the thread, forum, submission attempts.
