I use WS_FTP for my istockvideo work. I like the way it makes it easy to keep your various sites open, or at least accessible.

Core is the same as FTP Surfer, what I'm using now. One connection at a time, and no way to schedule uploads to all of my micros.

It doesn't schedule but I just run multiple instances of it for more than one site.

Thanks for all of your input, guys and gals.

I've switched to using Cushy Stock, and am loving it. It works for all of my sites except for Alamy and iStock, but at least for iStock we have Deep Meta (www.deepmeta.com) It's great to be able to just "set it and forget it" with my daily batches.

Cushy doesnt work with istock? it is in the list of sites supported..
If it doenst work with all sites (or all the important ones) I think I prefer to stay with smartftp and deepmeta

It works with _any_ site that has ftp.

I just tried CoreFtp LE and it does allow queing of files to multiple sites. Only the interface is a bit non intuitive.

Basically, one has to connect to each site, one by one, right click on files to upload and choose "Queue", then disconnect. Repeat the same for all the sites, and then click on "Process queue". CoreFTP LE then connects to sites one by one and uploads the selected images.

I think I can live with the way the scheduling is done. At least I don't need to sit by the computer and wait to switch between sites.

I really wondered that no one mentioned Total Commander
of course you can upload simultaneously to multiple sites (just make the hook "send in the background" at the sending dialog.)

Like others, I was using Smart FTP, but I began to have all sorts of problems with it. Also, as I recall, it began nagging me to buy an upgraded version (I think it was that program).

I switched to Filezilla and never looked back. Yes, it's simple, but that's the beauty of it. Works like a charm, every time.

I use the programme Prostockmaster for SS, FT, DT, StockXpert, BS, Canstock, 123rf and Istock (it works fine)
For the rest I use Cyberduck to upload to the other sites

I use ProStockMaster and Total Commander. Total Commander can also be used as an alternative for windows explorer.

I think the best ftp client for the microstock sites is FTPRush..
With the script feature you may upload with the only one click whole of batch to the many microstock's FTP servers.

nicemonkey · « **Reply #40 on:** October 07, 2008, 08:26 »

I use Cyberduck

madelaide · « **Reply #41 on:** October 07, 2008, 16:11 »

I use FTP Surfer, very simple and free. I read good things about Filezilla, but it seems so heavier. Even without a HD space problem in the new PC, I always favour "slim" software.

Regards,
Adelaide

How much of the commented ftp clients have can show thumbnails of the jpgs in the folder apart from smart ftp?

Since it is not free anymore Im trying not to buy it in this Crisis time...

microstockinsider · « **Reply #43 on:** November 30, 2008, 19:30 »

AceFTP pro 3 shows thumbnails for both local and remote directories, the version I have has a nag screen about registering but so far it has not forced me to stop using it, having said that I don't use it for microstock uploads.

I tend to use SmartFTP pro edition for uploading to microstock sites, (yes its not free) it's the only one I know of that has a multi upload feature that can add multiple images to all of your microstock sites with just a couple of clicks; but I've been thinking of migrating to cushystock which is the same price because it ads istockphoto into the workflow

I recorded a demo of the multiupload at
