Title: reviews slowed down?
Post by: Peter on March 18, 2008, 02:17
I am submiting 50 images for review every day since month ago, and every time, they are reviewed withing 5-6 hours. But in last 3 days, they seems to be stopped? I have 3 batches (150 images) still pending? Did you notice slower revirews or is it just me?

In fact I have had pending images there for more than a week.

Interesting, I got accepted over 1650 images, every batch didnt take over 10 hours, but when I started to upload people photos, they slowed down. ok, if it is normal, I dont have problem with that.....

Yes. It slowed down.

I haven't noticed it, even if I mainly upload vectors lately and this could apply to a different queue.

p.s.: Sunshine there, the reviewer, is fantastic. Astonishingly fast, always. A matter of hours, even minutes.

My latest two uploads, on the weekend, were reviewed in about 24h.

I have a batch which have been sitting there since March 6th.  But then again, StockXpert has been passed by Lucky Oliver this month for my port earnings, and now ranks 9th out of 10.   ???

Same here. Dead for me.

It's a shame.  I know it isn't just me, because I track a lot of the larger performers' port %'s reported here.   A lot of people show StockXpert falling fast.  Hopefully they turn things around soon, as I like the 50% commission, and the image prices.  Steve-Oh is always helpful here too.

This malady of slow reviewing times is perhaps distinguished as a "selective" or "isolated"
problem. In my uploading to StockXpert this month I have submitted 75 mew images. All but the last
3 (which I uploaded last nite) have been reviewed and are up for sale at this time.

Nearing the end of my second month with StockXpert,  (I am a new contributor) I have a total of 464 images in my Gallery. I have managed a total of 319 DL's for the amount of $224.20 in that time. 

For the month of MARCH 154 DL's and $112.40 total cash credits earned.

I hope my rather fortunate beginnings on StockXpert is a sign of things to come. I have not opted out
of SUB's sales, nor do I intend to at this time. SUB's account for 43 of the 154 sales this month.
That amounts to $12.90 of the total $112.40 for the March.

StockXpert has jumped ahead of all but one of my stock sites (only 3 others) I perhaps has the
potential of becoming the Number one seller if the trend continues.

I've uploaded about 50 images in the last 14 days, and I haven't had any of them reviewed yet either.  I'm guessing things are a bit backed up.  MY reviews have been a lot more favorable, however.  No rejections in the few reviews I've had prior.

Bizarre, mine are reviewed in most case in 1 or 2 days now. Maybe they keep the big batches to the end as I never upload more than 5 at the time

I have a problem with StockXpert reviewing my images TOO QUICKLY. Often I ftp a batch of images to all sites and then I will transfer 50 images to a StockXpert Briefcase. However, I am not always able to finish adding MRFs and categorising images before the reviewer sees them, who then rejects them for not having an MRF!

Please slow down SX and if you don't see a MRF, it's not because I don't have one or have forgotten it, it just means that I haven't got around to finishing those files off yet!

I now have 40 rejected images for not having MRFs that now do have MRFs!! Aaaarrrgghhh!

Happened to me with vectors. Transfered 100 files with ftp (.zip and jpgs), some .zips didn't go trough. When I wanted to add them I noticed that the files have already been approved as photos :D

PS: How long does it take for an accepted image to come online?
