How are the inspections going? 

I've now got 434 images awaiting inspection, that I've uploaded over the past four weeks.

Just wondering if others are sharing the same experience.......

Last week, I joined the site, and uploaded 1628 images.  Within three to four days, all of my images were inspected.

I was a tad surprised at the number of images they rejected.....465 images. 

What surprised me more was that many of the images they rejected were accepted on iStock, Dreamstime and SS, and some of them are my best sellers.  In fact, one of the images that was rejected is my third highest 25-A-Day earner, and my highest Enhanced earner on SS.   

Now I'm hoping for a few sales!

Has anyone had their five sample images inspected yet?

The day the promotion started, I started submitting images.  One week later, the first batch were inspected, and 79 were accepted on to the site.  Last week I, too, received the earnings update stating that I had 77 images approved, and that had earned me $53.90.  I'm happy with that, however, I don't quite know why I'm only being paid for 77 when 79 were approved.   I guess it will all 'turn out in the wash'.

Since then, I now have another 328 images awaiting inspection.  Over 100 of these have now been waiting to be inspected for two and a half weeks.  I'm patient.  Veer has pledged to pay for all images that are accepted between the 5th of May and the 30th of June.  So, even if none of my images are inspected until July, I still know that I'll be paid for the accepted ones.

I've worked out that I'll be able to submit another 500 images between now and the end of the promotion.  That means I will have uploaded around 900 images during the promotion.  Due to the fact that I already had 428 images approved prior to the promotion, there's a strong possibility, provided I continue to achieve my current success rate of a bit over 70%, that I'll receive $1.40 for each image accepted during the promotion.  Here's hoping!!!!

I'll let you know how I go.

The upload is painless by FTP. The model release module is primitive. You will have to stitch your model releases together in case there is more than one model in the image. Average sale 1 per month, with 380 images online.

Yes, I see what you mean. 

Yesterday, I uploaded 41 photos.  I then tried to transfer the FTP uploads to the editing queue.  However, I couldn't work out what was going on....I was looking for some type of progress indicator....to let me know when the transfer had finished.  I didn't get an indicator, so I hit the get FTP uploads again, and after a few minutes, I hit it again.  Consequently, I ended up with four of each photo, so I had to sit here and delete one image at a time. 

Stitching the model releases together isn't a concern.....iStock require them to be uploaded that way, so I already had them ready to go.

I'm currently uploading nearly 1700 images using FTP.  When the upload process has completed, in around 24 hours frpm now, I'll make sure I only hit the transfer button once, and leave it all night.  Hopefully, next morning, the 1700 will be in the waiting to be edited queue!  I certainly won't click on the button twice, this time!!!

I notice that there is not a picNiche poller available for ScandinavianStockPhoto or Zoonar.

I have no idea how to get a poller up and running for those two sites.  Does anybody know how to get a poller up and running for these two sites?

I submitted my first batch of 100 on May 11th and 12th and they are still in the Q. I submitted another 90 the following week, so I have a total of 190 sitting in the q to be inspected. I don't want to submit any more until I see what the acceptance rate is going to be, whether old model releases are going to be rejected, etc.

Yes, I believe they must be inundated. But wouldn't they have geared up a little for that?

My acceptance rate was nearly 70% for the first batch. 

I'm just hoping that I can achieve that acceptance rate from each batch.  If so, I'll get between 500 and 600 images accepted during the promotion.  That would be a nice little earner......at $1.40 each!

I have 1043 images online.  I've only had two sales, totalling $5.20.  The site is claiming that my images have had 6184 views.

I've just had 69 approved out of the 100 images that I submitted on the 5th of May.  I'm happy with the approval percentage!

If that approval percentage applies to the other 700 images that I'll submit between now and the 30th of June, I'll be thoroughly stoked!   I had 428 images approved before the commencement of the Dash for Cash promotion.

Just wondering........

Has anyone with images submitted either on or after the 5th of May had them inspected as yet?   

I submitted 100 on the 5th, and another 100 yesterday.   As yet, I haven't had any inspected as yet.

I'm glad I stuck with Veer!!!

I joined the site last year, and I have 428 images in my portfolio.  Consequently, when I received the e-mail from Veer yesterday, about this latest promotion, I was pretty happy!  

In the last 18 hours, I've been flat out uploading images using FileZilla.  So far, I've uploaded over 600 images, 110 of which are now in the 'Pending' queue, awaiting inspection.  I haven't had any problems uploading, and all titles, keywords etc. worked just fine.  I still have another 400 images to upload.

Now I'm eagerly waiting to see how many of my images will be accepted.  I'm hoping for 400-500 acceptances, out of the 900 I'm submitting.  To get the 428 images in my portfolio, I uploaded 763, which is success rate of around 56%.

Time will tell!

Very Nice, congrats ....

How many issues have you purchased? 

  I picked up five copies......a couple to keep, and the rest I've sent out to family and a couple of friends.

Thanks for the congrats!


Cheers

I don't know how the rest of you are all going on CanStockPhoto but, for me, sales have really started to pick up!

I've had two decent-sized sales during April....one for $26.06 and another for $19.80.  On top of that I had quite a few subscription and guest sales.  Let's hope this is a sign of things to come!
