Title: Uploading to Shutterstock
Post by: maggieddd on March 24, 2006, 15:19
How do you guys upload images to Shutterstock?  I submit vectors and neither of their ways work.
FTP - tells me invalid password
ActiveX - does not accept eps files
HTTP - keeps telling me that my .jpgs are missing when they are not. 

SO frustrating.  So far Shutterstock has been the biggest PIA for submitting.

What are your thoughts on this?

when you upload your vectors do they have absolutly the same name as the jpgs?

I upload via ftp and haven't had any problems (excpet today :) ) ... i find that the fastest and most convenient.. and have uploaded a number of vectors succesfuly this way.

i use filezilla as my ftp client.

yes, my jpgs have identical names as eps files.

For FTP I used WPS_FTP and I tried Fetch on OSX.  I keep getting that my password was rejected.  :(

BTW, do you know if there is a way to check how many times  a picture was viewed on Shutterstock?

Using ftp (gftp under Linux) for SS and it's never a problem for me...
