It's absolutely dead here !!!!!!! 

Hope it changes ! 

Of those, only the coin one shows a bit of thought or planning.  The rest are just captures of things laying about, not positioned particularly interestingly, or particularly well lit.

Exactly !  My thoughts too.  I got accepted a few months back (after several failed attempts), and most of my images are now accepted

But these are NOT stock material !!  I'm surprised Veer accepts your images !?  I can't get in there !??? 

Hope this helps   Didn't want to be too negative, but you did ask !

I think you'll eventually come to the conclusion that 'quality' is virtually the only thing that matters because increasingly only the very best of new images that will ever see sales.

But that's quality of 'Image Content' surely !?  NOT 'Technical Content' !??

My best seller at iStock was rejected on technical grounds at DT and FT !!!  More fool them !!

Thank u all so far   I must say I like a viewfinder ! 

Can't see those bloody screens at the best of times !  and my eyes r getting older !  Like ME !!! 

So the G9 (G11) so far !  Is that it !? 

Are u paying us to Upload, as DP did ??  If not, not a chance !  Life is too short

Signed up with them a few months back and I must say I realy like it.  Sure it seems it only saves you bandwidth, which means litle when you have a good internet connection (my case as well).  But see, I don't have the generate a 5MP version for SS off of the 12MP version I send to DT, FT, off of the 48MB version I send to Alamy: the system does all this for me automatically. 

Can't imagine why you would finagle over a few dollars and then waste hours and hours trying to hack something up with Filezilla and still not have any solution to upload different resolutions to different agencies, having to create all of those yoursef, and manage them (and add the  color profile and all that mess for Alamy).

Do u really resize for different agencies !??  heard of this before, but I just send my measly 10MP to ALL !!  Why do this ??

What's this about Alamy and colour profiles ??  in the dark here too !! 

I agree it's a nice package, I just have the $20 one, but it's worth �12 a yr for me to see ALL my stats laid out on 1 page !!

There are other ways to be paid. I really don't see what the big deal is though, its literally just a few cents and your done, one sale covers your costs easily. This isn't for storage, its for paypal only.

As I said !  If u open your own Paypal a/c, this shouldn't happen !!  Anyone listening !?   

No they don't open a PayPal account, they charge to register your existing PayPal account on Panther. Never made any sense to have a fee for opening a Panther account. Yes, it's 52 cents or something minimal. No big deal, just one of the oddball things they do. It's not for storage or anything else, it's for the privilege to upload photos to them and maybe get paid. 

OK Race, understood !  but I don't remember being charged when I opened MY a/c last year !?   

Maybe it's my age !??   

You pay up front to open a paypal payment channel with them. I'm actually starting to like Panther now that I have quite a few things up.

Is that after you've made a sale ??  They've never charged me anything !!?  But no sales so far and I have a Paypal a/c already !

I use colour labels to show which images are uploaded and which need editing, or are ready to go etc..

I use ProStockMaster for the upload, so I can see instantly where they have been uploaded to !
You can also mark them as accepted or rejected in there too !

You could use iSyndica of course !?

Pixamba are now reviewing my uploads and accepting them !    BUT Panthemedia are still leaving them in a long queue going back months !!     Strange bunch !!!

9 days since they said :  "We'll release an upgrade in the next few days."

??  who knows !?   

I've uploaded 20 or so and pushed them through, but NO reviewing !!  for months !?  just stuck there !
