Envato / Re: Uploading via FTP
« on: November 30, 2011, 14:41 »
I've opened an account and uploaded the ten files via FTP, however now I'm completely lost as to what you're meant to do with them, they all have a tick next to them but won't allow me to do anything else because I get an error saying they're not a .zip file. Any suggestions?

Also am I right in thinking there's no release folder and that you have to upload the releases with each future batch? If that's the case I won't be bothering.

This has got to be the most complicated upload system on any of the micros.

Hello everyone, I'm terribly sorry for any confusion.

@RT,  We are looking into your issue and will get back to you soon.
@Tabimura, sorry as well for the delayed reply.  Things have been a bit hectic I'm afraid but Jarel will get with you soon.

Has anyone managed to link Lightburner to Photodune to automate the uploading process?
Cheers

Yes, working perfectly.

Create a custom channel
Use your normal username and password
FTP server: ftp.marketplace.envato.com

and don't forget to set up the upload folder: /bulk_import/photos/

You'll still need to import pictures on site, since it's a custom channel.

Hi all, I might add that since LightBurner doesn't support model releases, you can simply create another custom channel and set the upload folder to /bulk_import/photos/model_releases/ now you can send all your photos to the /bulk_import/photos/ directory and your MRs to the /bulk_import/photos/model_releases/ directory.  When you Process your photos in PhotoDune, the MRs will now be attached to the images.

Good luck!

The latter, the model releases are already "attached" to the pics that you uploaded during the batch upload. No need to assign them or anything like that :)

Drew,

I hope you guys will rethink this process some time soon.  It would be nice to see what release is linked to the images when I submit them, and to fix the assignment if it's not correct.  Also, it's kind of annoying to have to break up my FTP batches by release.  If I have 5 photos with one model, 5 with a second, 5 with a third, and another 5 with some combination of those same three models, am I required to upload each combination separately?  Or can I just upload the 20 images and all three releases and ignore the ones that don't count?

Hi disorderly :)  This is a good question and I can understand the confusion.  To answer your question, yes, you can just upload the 20 images and all three releases and ignore the ones that don't count?  The 3 releases will be attached to all of the images in that batch.

Hope that helps!

Actually image exclusivity is an option on all the marketplace sites.  You need to create an Exclusive account and upload the images you intend to sell exclusively at PhotoDune to that account.  To be clear, this means you will have an exclusive and non-exclusive account, but it will help you accomplish what you are after.

We look forward to seeing your exclusive images Lisa, Warren and disorderly!

Would that entail a whole seperate account, name, email, etc along with applying a second time?

Hi rosta! Yes, I believe you would.  This may change in the future, and I acknowledge it might not be the most elegant solution, but hopefully it will work in the mean time for anyone looking for an option to sell some images exclusively :)

@corepics & lisafx, glad to hear you are considering this as an option, and really hope it works out well for you.

I don't have an account, Josh, but your agency is getting more and more interesting.

Do you accept editorial images?

Hi Warren! Thanks for your interest, We're not currently accepting editorial photos. They require different licensing, etc. that we're not yet ready for.  It's in the plans, but we're not quite there yet.  Please let me know if I can help.

Can some one point me to their pricing structure? I am having trouble to find in on their website.
Thanks.
