I uploaded a few images to SV when they first came online but stopped since they did not read IPTC data. Since they now do read IPTC data I figured I would start uploading again.

I uploaded 15 images this past weekend and they were approved today. However, only a limited number of keywords exist for each photo. All my keywords were read when I uploaded, but it seems that either they were later replaced by new ones or they only took some of them and deleted the rest. Is this the case with everyone? Do they limit the keywords?

As an example, some of the keywords that were deleted for the below photo of The Burren in Ireland are: Burren, rural, scenic, Galway, and several others.





NOTE: I put the photo here from SS b/c for some reason the one from SV was not displaying. Also, I checked all 15 newly uploaded photos and 2 of them contain all the keywords I supplied. The other 13 have been limited.

SV edits keywords, but not on a consistant basis. Some of my images have almost the same keywords I supplied, some have only a few.

After browsing their library, it's obvious that SV acceptance standards are currently quite low.

I guess I will just accept it as it is then. I am not going to add keywords back one at a time. It seems silly though that a picture of what is known as The Burren in Ireland would have the keyword Burren removed.

Thanks for the response.

I noticed the same thing.  Browsing through the images priced at $50 is a real education.....!

They also edit captions mine were changed completely - for the better on a couple of images.
