Thanks reviewers and Steve-O.
Finally. Now, anyone got any tips about how to upload 1000 or so images?
-
you can upload via ftp; and there is a possibility of group edit which is particularly useful for images with the same category; and/or for images with the same model release

Congrats!
StockXpert is doing really well for me just now.
-
congratulations!
I think daily upload limit is 50 so perhaps you should use the limit since you have many files to upload but some people think you tend to get more rejections if you upload big batches I don't know if it is just a speculation though but I think that could be true for batches that contains similar images.
good luck with sales.

Of what avail is it, when you upload a lot of pics and the sleepyheads doesn´t inspect them. Maybe they can overtake IS :(
-
IMO, and please, it's not meant to offend or harm...
If it took you so long to FINALLY get into StockXpert, then why bog them down with 1000 images that were taken when you COULDNL'T get in?
Why not just pick the best 100 from the last month or so, and start from here? Because if you batch upload all the images from when you couldn't get in, and they reject 85% of them, you aren't going to have good feelings about the site, and you are going to want to complain.
Congratulations on getting in!
And good luck with growing your portfolio :)

It's a good time to be accepted because they seem a little more relaxed about approvals of late. (Could this have anything to do with Photos.com and JIU?)
Just don't bother sending any interior shots, or shots with buildings in them without a property release.

i just got in, so they must have relaxed their standards!
havent gotten the ftp to work yet, so batching 5 at a time

i agree with RGebbie, litifeta. you don't want to encourage rejections. so don't send them the ones that failed before. and also the ones similar to that.
avoid sending too many variations of the same, as you will get rejections for sending too many unnecessary ones. choose the best , and leave the rest for other sites.
StockXpert has never been "easy", but once you get a good percentage, you can almost get approvals within a couple of hours. i've had almost 100% approval rating these past months.
and they now approve me in 2 hours . but i still get a couple of rejections. which are justified too.
congrats. now you have to try Alamy , right? ;)
