Thank you Jo Ann Snover, I got it. I saved my images in Adobe RGB. Now I always convert my profile to sRgb. I have Adobe RGB set when I open Camera RAW. Maybe I should set Camera RAW to sRGB profile. Thanks again

Hello everyone,
when I edit my mostly urban architecture photos in PS, they look good to me with vivid colors. BUT when I look at them in my portfolio, they have dull colors. Do you oversaturate your urban architecture photos?

Hello everyone,
             I am new to vectors, I use Inkscape 1.2 version. I noticed that vector where I use blur-shadows and gradients turn out rasterized when save as an .eps file. Is there a way how to avoid this?  I noticed that infographic vectors have lot of blurs, shadows and text. Do they use a special method to save it as an eps vector? Thanks.

Hello everyone,
                recently I started with vectors and I would like to know whether I can submit the same vector to more stockagencies? I already submitted a few vectors to SS and I want to be sure before I submit elsewhere. I plan to Adobe, SS, Dreamstime and that is. Can you recommend some other vectorstock? These days I dont expect much, but every dime counts. Thanks a lot.

Hello everyone,
                     a few days ago I have submitted an image of mountain with oil painting filter to all major players and  they all rejected it. SS wrote: Post-Production Technique -- Image contains quality issues due to cloning, isolation, or other post-production techniques. Adobe rejected it because: non compliant content...etc.  Question: How am I  suppose to submit an image to SS and to others main agencies with artistic filter on it?  Thanks a lot. BTW I wanted to insert the image, but when I hit: insert the image, nothing happens.

General - Top Sites / Creating a sets and StockSubmitter
« on: February 19, 2018, 05:49 »
Hello everyone. I have started stock in July last year. I am learning step by step. Would you please  tell me your opinion: Generally speaking creating a sets  doe's it help to sell images, or not? Also, I submit to every site separately, thru FTP. Do you use StockSubmitter? Does it work smoothly? Thanks a lot.

Photo Critique / Re: 77 sales on SS from July
« on: November 19, 2017, 04:56 »
Thanks a lot guys, I appreciate any advice a lot. You know what they say:  You don't see your own mistakes with your own eyes. And tell the truth, If I see my images what I submitted in July, I wouldn't submit them today.  I was thinking like this: the more images I submit, the bigger chance I sell. Now I see, that I was wrong.  AND YES, I have problem to isolated objects. I just put whatever I shoot on white table, 2 strobes on 45 on sides, 1 strobe above on background. ......and not happy with the result. I slow down and focus on the quality.
And just for curiosity. From 77 downloads were 5 sky images. Isn't that ironic? Thank you again.

Thanks a lot Jo Ann Snover  for very valuable comments - not harsh at all. Definitely help. I read it only ones. I have to go over and analyze it couple of times. Thanks again.

Thanks Brightontl.  I also thought myself to slow down and submit less images with better quality.

Hello everyone,
                 I started stock from July this year. In SS I have over 1200 photos and I made  77 sales. I am obviously doing something wrong. Would you please look at my portfolio and tell me what you REALLY think. It seem to me, that I have learn a lot. Thank you all.

General Stock Discussion / Who doesn't accept editorial images?
« on: November 09, 2017, 05:44 »
Hello everyone.
I would like to submit editorial images for the first time, but not every agency accept them. I have my portfolio in SS, Dreamstime, AdobeStock, Getty, Pond5, Alamy, 123rf, Bigstockphoto .
SS + dreamstime they accept editorial, but how is rest of them with editorial acceptance? Or is there any agency what specialized on editorial images? Thanks a lot guys.
