Hi,
for the past 2 days I tormented myself trying to decide which referral link to use. In the end I couldn't decide between Adeptris and RacePhoto. Thank you both for your helpful posts, hopefully there will be other times in the future.
For other newbies or interested artists - I registered 6 hours ago and this is how it went:
Registration process takes less than a minute and it's the quickest around.
Upload system - you need to install a dedicated plug in but it only takes a few seconds and it's the best I've seen so far. It's fast, live, and very visual. I'm impressed.
Editing files - uploaded files are called 'objects' and need to be 'created'. All keywords are imported; you only need to choose categories, but they're not many and it's easy.
All files can be edited/deleted at any time.
Inspection times - once 'created' files go live instantly, straight up on the home page. I think they're marked 'Editorial Only' until they pass inspection. Again, this only takes minutes.
Paypal payments are automated, sent monthly with no minimum balance requirements.
Commission is 60 per cent and makes me feel valued.
Views on 25 files, 6 hours online, 127!
Stats and reports - all sorts, instantly generated.
Everything about the upload process is easy, fast and runs like clockwork.
Well done Matt, I'm impressed!
2 Suggestions - larger preview thumbnails? Community forum?
And one quesion - what kind of files are 3D artists mostly looking for?
People? Objects? Isolations? Textures? Cars and weapons? (your blog)
Tell us what to shoot or draw and let's try to make some money,
Best wishes,
