Title: Outage Saturday September 5th
Post by: Brian O'Shea on September 04, 2009, 15:49

Hi All -

We're getting ready to roll out some changes to the site that require us to take the site down. Veer.com (including Marketplace and Ideas) will be unavailable beginning at 8AM MST tomorrow morning.

We should be back up and running by mid-afternoon.

Follow us on twitter:  @veermarketplace for the latest Veer Marketplace contributor updates.

- Brian

Happy to see "view all images by this artist" links now on image detail pages.

Sad to see that the rasterized vectors were not part of this release.

Not happy to see, that in Germany my english keywords are translated into german (not the best quality) and important keywords are not shown.
Only 2/3 of the keywords are listed. (Sometimes the most relevant keywords are NOT listed !)
So, nobody can find these illustrations by keyword.
There is no way to change the language ?

Yay! View All Images by this Artist. Finally!

And also you can go to all images from your member page now. Hope these changes bring some downloads!

Try searching by your original English keywords. For me it works. The keywords shown below the picture do not seem to be all that is used by the search algorithm, there's more to it...

Couldn't agree more.

@dirkr
No, it doesn't work for me.

Example 1:
Illustration of an Easter Egg,
Keywords "easter" and "egg" are not shown.
For the search (illustrations) I tried "easter", "egg", "Ostern", "Ei" - the illustration cannot be found by the search.

Example 2:
Illustration of green leaves,
Keywords "green" and "leaves" are not shown.
For the search (illustrations) I tried "green leaves" - the result: nothing, no pictures of green leaves found (no illustration, no photo).
I tried "leaves" - the illustration cannot be found by the search...

Strange...
there must be a bug in their system. I only noticed that I can find my images with keywords that are not shown below the picture, so I thought they only show part of the keywords relevant for search.
Maybe I was assuming too much... ???

I think for me it's better to stop uploading until it works correct.
Also part of the side is no longer in english but in german and I cannot change the language.
