So I got this rejection:  Editorial Caption--Image requires proper caption when I used the same caption as I-stock.

Is there a place on their website where they list the format they want?  Searching the forum brings up nothing.

Additional places to file complaints:,Federal Trade Commission, and their state Attorney Generals and wherever the company was located.

thank you.  since they said they wanted them all in one batch, do not want to mess it up and then get stuck.

Even when uploading single images at a time, the system still does not recognize that one has put in all the right data and says need more info.  Not sure I want SS to get rid of BS.... actually making more money on BS than SS.

Which place does the best quality prints: Red Bubble, Zazzle or FAA?

I did a bunch of photos of a sporting event and some of the people there want prints.  The custom lab where I used to do all my art printing closed down so just want an easy place to send them that won't do shoddy prints. 

I already have permission from the club owner to photograph the event for posting editorial images n stick photo agencies.  What kind of things do I need to include in the paper she signs to show that I have the credentials for the agencies?

My sales with Fotolia are doing a lot better than SS.  FT is my 2nd venue now.  Still a ways behind my best selling venue but my portfolio on FT is much smaller.

The other benefit for me of FT is that the images that are accepted the most are the ones I most like to shoot whereas with SS I find myself going for something less exciting to me as a photographer.   

I get the not ready almost every time even though all information there before and after the change.

Review times are MUCH longer now. 

Also they have changed their reviewers, the weekend reviewer from SS has been moved to BS, or their standards have changed or a combo.   Almost all my images were approved on BS and now almost none....including ones already approved on SS (plus everywhere else).  Bogus reason.  Hard to imagine BS has lighting standards so different than SS but seems like it.  Might take a pause uploading there if this keeps up. 

hmmmm, never got an email about it.  Much better.

Part of the property release on Alamy says:

I agree that I have received Consideration of (insert monetary value)..........................................................
.................................... for the rights granted in this
release. I acknowledge and agree that I have no further right to additional Consideration or accounting,

Do we have to fill in a number here in a number here if 0 money passed hands (like if property belongs to photographer, family or friend  and there is no expectation of getting paid like with paid models.

That makes sense why they might be out of order.    Just was weird to get emails about photos at the same time from batches separated by at least a week or what at least feels like more.

I used to have rejection rate a little less than Shutterstock and Fotolia-- now they are rejecting 100%.  Ridiculous because m images are different even if similar subject matter (same animal).  I wrote to them and got a pre-scripted nonsense response.  I removed my portfolio and will not be uploading to them unless they get some sense.   At this point I am having much better sales at several agencies and 0 sales there.

The reasons the curator gave were bogus.  They said things like not sharp 1:1 and not bad at even 200%-- sorry they were sharp and accepted at SS and FT without a sharpness issue so just a fake issue.

It is sad because I thought Pond 5 might be a good place to combine my art longings and stock, They are not.   The images closer to my main photographic interest are selling elsewhere so I do not care to waste my time with Pond 5 until they get some sense.
