General Stock Discussion / Re: Say Bye to Opting-Out
« on: February 25, 2020, 05:12 »
   Enhanced Licenses allow customers to use your content in high-profile projects, such as film and television, incorporation into merchandise for sale, wall art for commercial spaces, and print runs over 500,000.
I get why we opt out from sensitive use, I did it too. But why opt out from Enhanced Licenses? What's wrong with those? Customers pay good money for those and let them use as they want. What is it I missed? It's not a rhetoric question, I really want to know.

Thanks! The more I learn how to use M+ the more I like it! :)

All the fresh Microstock+ news in a single article :)
I like the new improvements!  :) Noticed some already while working.

A quick question: Is there a way to upload a file to the same agency repeatedly? First I made a mistake in description, corrected it, then pressed the upload to checked agency for second time. No idea if it worked because for some files I corrected the descriptions manually in the agency, yes, I'm chaotic.

Also is it possible to reupload in case I want them to reconsider the rejection? The rejections in SS for example seem very random recently.

TIA

Clean records have value.

Kind of "it does" maybe?

Although a normal camper covers most of the cases I guess :)
Soon to be found out!  ;D

A lovechild of Land Rover and VW California. Big and comfortable for me and my stuff and takes me everywhere. Speed is secondary. Wish it existed.

Photography Equipment / Re: Aerial photos without a drone

Tall houses, bridges, ferris wheels, natural elevations + hefty zoom. People usually assume the photos from such places would be those of immediate vicinity but you can get them from a few kilometres away.

Hi, Niakris,
Maybe it's just me but after entering metadata of a photo the "Save and close" button is overlapped by "Live chat" button. Either I have to slow down my hand or I keep hitting the chat and it gets annoying. Yes, I use mouse to hit buttons.
Can you please move one of them out of the way of the other? TIA

 :) I'm getting my ducks in a row.

So what would be the best workflow now? Upload one file and submit one by one or first upload all I have for that day and submit all together? Can a ready file wait a day or two before submitting?
Is there any specific procedure for editorial?
After the files are submitted to the agencies do they stay in M+? In file manager or do they go to archive? Is it necessary to leave them in M+ after they are submitted?

Thanks!

Newbie Discussion / Re: "Cityscape" KW
« on: November 04, 2019, 11:15 »
I had no idea what is the difference between city and town. City - bigger, town - smaller? In general yes but apparently in England a city is one that has a cathedral. Other parts of the world don't have cathedrals so we are guessing again. But it was interesting to know there was a criteria.

..... Lets do the same thing we all did to Depositphotos - They ended up having an outdated library within 48hours when a lot of us with expensive portfolios deleted our pictures.

What happened with Depositphotos? Was it discussed here or somewhere I could read about it? Could somebody drop a link or explain briefly?
Thanks

What does it say exactly?
I tried once more and right now it says "error (undefined)"

39
It's me again :) . I can't ad Dreamstime to my list of agencies. M+ says there is no such profile. Well, there is and was for a while already. I can log on normally from Chrome and from the link in M+. I tried Deactivate and start anew but it didn't help. I don't use any Remember Password feature. Any suggestions what should I do?

iStockPhoto.com / Re: I QUIT iSTOCK
« on: October 26, 2019, 18:38 »
Hi! New and naive here.
I'm in iStock statistics of newly joined contributors (since beginning of the year). And of fast quit ones too (today). No big deal, I never had too many photos in there to begin with. As the uploading system is a complete nightmare I'm not even sure if my files were uploaded all the way. Kinda yes or maybe?
I take photos of normal everyday stuff but some of my keywords bring only a handful photos even in such a saturated place as Shutterstock where I'm a happy bunny. So if somebody wants them they better go to an agency that pays me my peanuts not just the shells.

@Opalescence

The thing is that we cannot provide those keys anymore. We had our keys but Getty decided to block them for some stupid reason so now the only way to work with them is if you can find a working key pair somewhere.
Thanks! I understand!

Hi! New user here. I see others were having the same problem:
API keys in iStock/Getty are not available. Still M+ asks for them in order to ad iStock to my agencies.
Does that mean iStock is not usable in M+? Just delete and forget? Or will M+ come up with some solution like stop asking for impossible or supply it themselves (here in this thread there was a suggestion that those keys could be passed around from other users).
Actually I am halfway done with trying to work with iStock anyway, they are a headache.
