Newbie Discussion / Re: How do I "clean image" before uploading it

Found it! This free software does the trick ---> http://www.digitalconfidence.com/downloads.html

BatchPurifier LITE will thoroughly remove JPEG metadata while keeping the JPEG image intact and without degrading its quality.

I just tried it and it works like a charm! So now I'm in stealth mode, lol... :D

Lowest...less than 0.000...cent via istock/getty.

Highest RF image around 300 also Gettyimages.

Impressed to read that people are ready to donate on pixabay.

I got a little frustrated with the number of photos that are just laying on my hard-drive, not good enough to my stock portfolio, so I decided to share them online. Now they are making me more money than my 4000+ portfolio on middle & low tier stock sites out there.

If only there was a way to avoid this when selling photos online. I can see how that could easily happen to everyone of us and there is nothing you can do about it.

Lowest was so far $0.18 from iStock, highest was a couple of weeks ago 100.00 EUR from Pixabay "Coffee Donations".

All my premium shots goes to SS & AS, my mediocre images go to Pixabay which is surprisingly been a very good to me (I earned at least $25 on weekly basis).

Hi,

I would like to remove personal data before keywording and uploading it stock sites. Do you guys know any good software for this purposes? And it should be a desktop software, not online-based.

I'm uploading stock photos to AdobeStock and I don't know does it matter but I stopped using Lightroom & PS. Now I'm editing all my photos in Luminar which is pretty good after two weeks learning. In my case I don't want to store the image information about what editor was used to create it so this extra data has to go away.

Thank you for any help in this matter!  :)

for windows:
download EXIFTOOL
put it in a PATH included folder (learn what this means online)
then go into the JPGs directory from the commandline and type:

exiftool -ALL= . -EXT JPG

Simple.

Thank you very much! I'll look into that...

Why do you want to remove the info on which editor you used?  Its very odd

I'm not sure will they treat me fairly if I upload photos to AS which were edited in their rivals software (Luminar). It's probably nothing but just in case. Still looking for good software that do the trick.

I would not worry about it they only judge on the image quality not which editor you use

OK, thank you, Sir. Your feedback is very much appreciated.  :)
