Title: I want to introduce myself and make some questions to you
Post by: arquiplay77 on January 15, 2009, 11:59

Hello:

I'm new here and in this bussines, just started a month ago to submit images to stock agencies.
Well the truth is that in SS i was rejected the firs time JUST BECAUSE THE KEYWORDS where written in Spanish (when i see the interface in Spanish it says TO PUT THE KEYWORD IN SPANISH) so after asking for help to support, having no answer at all and uploading to other sites, i just had to wait the month of suspension, then my 10 images where accepted and after that in just one week in SS i earned 3 times the amount of the other sites, i was shock on how well this site works compared to others  :o.
in this week i have a sale average of 10 images (when my Port has 14 images i think it's OK) now i have around 20 images and hope to improve this number soon.

Anyway, I'm sellling in SS, DT, FT, SX, and 123RF, but i could not get in ISP, i was rejected 2 times with this reason:
"At this time we regret to inform you that we did not feel the overall composition of your photography or subject matter is at the minimum level of standard for iStockphoto."
I'm lost with this site, don't know what to do to get in. would be nice if you could give me some indications, Can i post here some links to the images i have submitted to evaluate them? (they are allready selling in other sites, and i could post some links if it's allowed)

Well, thank you in advance.
Bye

What helped me in my application was when a friend of mine posted pictures on the IS forum. He posted links to ten pictures of mine, and through suggestions and reviews I was able to pick the three for application.
Maybe something to consider.

thank you, the problem for me is that i don't have any friend in the forums, and as i can't post any topic until I'm accepted ... well.

This is the link I've started to ask you guy your opinion, i post it in the critique section as i thought is the best to do.
