Their rejections, although rare, can be very unpredictable. I would just resubmit the images, maybe in smaller batches. To see what images you sold, you can either go to

http://www.stockxpert.com/my_images

and see which images have number of downloads > 0

or go to

http://www.stockxpert.com/balance

and click on the date of sale.

Istock is the only site that requires you to cut and paste multiple releases together into a single file. 
DeepMeta allows for multiple releases to be attached to the file.

I would like to see something positive in this and I really hope you are right, RacePhoto.

StockXpert has always had steady sales for me and I would like that some replacement is found for that volume.

Print on Demand Forum / Re: What did you sell at Zazzle?
« on: October 12, 2009, 02:06 »
So far I have sold these stickers twice:

Golden Gate Bridge

This postcard:

Old Bridge in Mostar

and a sheet of these stickers:

California Poppy

My mark-up is 20%. I think it's the maximum without having credit card fee charged by Zazzle.

Litifeta, congratulations on your sales! I hope you get payment issues resolved with them. It's really bad to hear somehting like this happening there too.

Great photo Anton! Congratulations!

I can see that there are quite a few challenges with running DeepMeta on Mac. Cathy, I don't blame you at all for not wanting to test a software like that. My experience with the PC flavor has been pretty smooth so far. A couple of times when IS changed their site they had an update but that was about it.
I think there is a way to run Windows applications within Mac OS. That might be another option if that is something you use anyway.

59
Same here. The only reason for not using DeepMeta would be if someone has a mac :)
Why I use a Mac and use Deepmeta to upload to iStock and have been for quite a while.
I'm sorry I thought it was not available for Mac. That's good to know!

Lisa, DeepMeta is so easy, fast and convenient... I am sure if everyone tries it, there will never be threads similar to this one. It looks to me like I would never try to upload using web upload system...not even if someone puts a gun at my head.

However I am still stunned that istock apparently has no intention of fixing this problem, forcing contributors to use a third party software to get around their IT bugs.  
I believe they have some bugs that are at least a couple of years old. I wouldn't hold my breath for any fixes there.

Guessed age but am I looking like Hugh Grant?
Amazing resemblance :)

I uploaded my profile picture and it said I was 7 years younger than I am. I am also 100% male, definitely good to know :)

64
Wow, an automated way to steal our photos!  Super!
I'm sure they will implement buying our pictures on IS, with 100 credits included in the software price.

65
I would suggest using DeepMeta again. I can't imagine uploading to IS without it.

I got two devices from DeLonghi: big combo at home and simple small espresso machine at work. When I was living in Europe I was huge fun of Krupps but it seems to be very crappy on American market.
Yes, a friend of mine had Krupps in the US and it wasn't good at all.

Those are some great machines indeed. I have to admit that mine is not so fancy.

I also got it in not so fancy store, Costco warehouse :D. People from US and Canada will know what I mean. They sell it for $249 but I got it on sale for $99 a few months ago.

They currently have an automatic Gaggia with grinder on sale:

Goldenangel and Whitechild: you can then buy images one from the other. 
That's exactly what we did. :D

I sent in the feedback on September 28 and got my credits today.

72
Maybe this is a chance I FINALLY get a payout?  ;D

i think they will pay you with image credits so you can buy other images , not to convert into money  :'(

Our fears have come true:
"
Thanks for taking time to provide feedback on Crestock - we have now added 50 credits to your account.

Sorry to hear about this problem - are working on making sure this is resolved for all users.

Please let me know if you experience any further problems. "
So yes, they gave me 50 credits to buy images and I see no way of transferring that to my balance. According to their agreement we may not buy our own images. Well, at least I can buy images from other people. :)

I can't imagine a morning without a double espresso (or two) made from my favorite Lavazza. I even bring a little espresso pot to camping trips :)

I think getting a beans to coffee machine is a good idea. I have only tried Senseo once in a store that sells espresso machines and it was quite good. However, getting a "real" machine probably provides for more flexibility when it comes to trying different coffee beans. Prepare for the mess though. :) I'm sure these machines are much more messy than Senseo.

Congratulations to Rio! It was about time South America hosts Olympic Games. I'm sure Rio and Brazil will do a great job as a host. Rio is Cidade Maravilhosa after all :)
