Title: Shutterstock Review
Post by: 60D on July 01, 2013, 04:55
Hello everyone, I have submitted a batch of images to SS two weeks before and still waiting for the acceptance. Are two weeks normal these days for photos? How about vectors and illustrations? I sent an email to them and no response yet.

If I submit a new batch before reviewing previously submitted batch, will it cause to a delay in reviewing first batch? Are photos, illustrations (still JPG) and vectors (EPS) processed in three different lines?

Hi, the review process is now correct. There was a time when it took 2week for reviewing any batch. But now it is super corrected. The latest review of my batch took not more than 11hours.
I would recommend you to contact the shutterstock support and see how can they help.

Lucky you!

And a few others.

On day 4 and waiting still.

So that throws out the first in first out since yours were submitted after mine and got reviewed before mine huh?

Not sure what could be the case. Happened to me yesterday... uploaded in early morning and was approved later in evening.
The First-in and First-out depends to which reviewer the batch went to.

No it doesn't it goes by Batch #'s and picture ID#'s.

Doesn't make a difference who the reviewer is.

It doesn't seem to by go batch, image ID.

I have batch number 33820565 with image ID's from 145877702 to 145877714 and batch ID 33883202 with image number 146125073 waiting in line right now to get accepted.

I've already had batch number 33883202 with image numbers 146125043 to 146125085 approved.

batch 33883202 was just submitted today 7/15 while batch number 33820565 was submited two days ago on 7/13.

First in does not equal first out from what I see.
