Seeing good response from you I'm more and more trusting it will be promising platform, after you fix some details as above ;)
Btw, your image thumbnails are much darker/ oversaturated than orig. file. Did anybody notice that?

First, all the information has to be filled before you sumbit, so please make sure you have filled all the required information in English. And then, you have to choose the images you want to submit, uauslly, you could choose all and click the submit button on image editing page. Save for later is help you to save the information you have filled in images, you could view your images on edit image and you could see all the information you have filled before are all kept. If you want to submit them, you need to go to image editing page to click the submit button....

what is the 'required information' for each image? i looked your faq pages and didnt find anything there
here's more detail on what i've tried:
-----------
uploaded 3 batches -- 20 + 20 + 10
no error messages
my account/organize
1 accepted image shown; nothing else
rejection
5 images similar to first are rejected for 'technical reasons'; what happened to the other images loaded & submitted at same time?
waiting qs
0
edit images
14 images - 7 each from the last 2 uploads - what happened to other images?
click edit all, then select all (why do i need 2 selects?)
submit & get error message
"Select the picture information is incomplete"
1. what does this mean??
2. there is no indication of what is 'incomplete' - what fields are required? which are optional?
i edited 1 image & entered all info, got same error message
------------------
all images are listed as horizonatal, even the vertical ones
this extra text is being inserted in front of my keywords : "Please fill the image information in English"

About the "Please fill the image information in English", sorry for this matter, this is a browser compatibility problem, I'll back to you when it's settled. We suggest to use Chrome brower, more stable.
About the incomplete information, all the fields with "*" are the required information which have to be filled before submit. And please choose the images before you submit, usually, I suggest you click all and click the submit.
Please notice that on the right side of the images, there is a fold/unfold button, by click it you could see part of your images or all your images.
I hope the explaination could be help. Thank you for your register, please let me know if you have any problems.

I'm pleased to see Super Image Market trying to establish a new photo agency based in Hong Kong to service HK and the Chinese market, which is of course a potentially huge market. And, of course, it's a pleasure to see a representative of SIM come here and take constructive advice from long established stock photographers.
However, I think it's obvious that the web site, terms & conditions, upload process etc all need further work. And I'd like to hear more about how the agency is going to do the translation into Mandarin and Cantonese (although I believe the characters are the same, just different pronunciation) and what their plans are for marketing and sales.
Too early for me to participate, but I'm happy to upload some trial images if that helps refine the upload and ingestion process.
I should say that I don't like the headline "you get 80% of sales" - it smacks of unreality and looks suspicious. If SIM has got money to invest to establish and grow the business, I'd rather see a lower rate of commission (perhaps in the 50% to 60% area) and heavier investment in marketing and sales.
Ariene:
Hatman, if the newcomer can afford 80% and marketing at the same time, why do you care? I hope you're just joking with lowering %... First people here say 50% is the minimum and they are jumping into platforms offering 70-80% (easiest example is 500px which makes sales and pays 70% and that is from big amount! And it works) and now you say you don't want to earn that much because you don't trust the agency... I don't get it :P
One more time, if SIM can afford that, if they are prepared (I believe they are, they made calculations and searched the market before plans realisation), just be happy and support them. We are coming to new market area...
You're right it's to early to say anything here in that case, maybe after 2-4 years will be able to be 100% sure if it works or not. And after that period SIM will see if they can stay with 20%.
One more thing we need to ascertain - if SIM is just a platform where we do our own marketing (like Focal Pool etc) or it is another agency doing whole marketing for us... Sorry if I missed that info somewhere :)

Hi, thank you for your focus on SIM and your compliment, I'm really appreciate it.
At this period, our target market is Enlish speaking countries, we may translation into Mandarin, but not at this stage.
We would appreciate if you could register and upload some images, and most important, give us some advise and suggestions, that would give us a great of help.
About the 80%, that's what we really want, we are serious.
Thank you again.
