Hey, this is my first post. Never done this before. I've been with Alamy for years, with thousands of images online. I've not had a reject since 2012. A couple of weeks ago I submitted some images taken with my camera phone, thinking that they now accept them. WRONG! Only for news. So.....rejected! My next submission was a single scanned film image, one that was returned by Corbis after my contract expired. This single and the following submission were not QC'd for about 10 days, and when I enquired about this delay I was told (actually more like disciplined) by Shiraz that constant rejection slowed up QC by as much as 28 days! By the way, the scanned film image was rejected for being soft. It has sold over 350 times on the Corbis site.
