Title: Review time
Post by: Ellerslie on June 24, 2011, 07:59
Is it possible? 10 days and still wait for my first 10 images....if the time is always so long I don't know how is possible stay on Veer. How many time to have a big portfolio if they are so slow??? :-[ ::) ???

Yes, it is unfortunately.

2 or 3 weeks delay is common there. But, once you will submit regularly you won't notice too much: pictures will be online sooner or later.

Uploading a big portfolio will take some time however, because there's also a weekly upload limit.

My dear friend is waiting since 1 june  :o, terrible. I hope that then they are a little bit faster...I don't like to know that my picture will be online...soon or later  :) I hope to know if and when.  ???
I like the site, I didn't know about this time for the review and now I don't know what I'll do in the future but...what about sales?
Is it worth it?

Maybe it's better think about Canstock if they are faster...can I ask you how many images you have in your portfolio on Canstock and on Veer?
I have only 680 images on Shutterstock (illustrations, Shutterstock is the only place where I upload regularly and the only place that I like totally...except for the property model relase that I submit for every hand drawn illustration  :-[), maybe I have too little images to sell on Canstock or on Veer...

I have about 1300 images on CanStock and 600 on Veer. You can get your 680 images uploaded and approved on Canstock  in one day.

Sales take long as well to begin. But after a few months sales start to roll in. Now - after about two years with them - Veer is consinstently my 6th site, on par with Canstock

Review times at Veer have been around a month since Day 1. Sometimes even longer.

Ellerslie - we'd be happy for you to put this to the test :)

I uploaded 45 files on July 1.  All but one were inspected a short while ago (today is August 3).  Prior to that, I had ten files in my Veer catalog, and much to my surprise, got two sales.  That's very unusual in my experience - two sales with only ten images.  I can't help but wonder if that's a fluke or if it's a sign of good things to come.  But a month-long review time is a bit hard to work with.   :-\

Review times are unacceptable.

This has been promised to be ironed out almost a year ago and still we get the good old:

"We are receiving an unusual large amount of submissions and trying our best to get them reviewed as fast as possible".

Ding dong, this is microstock. I doubt that they get swamped with new uploads like SS does but they seriously have to get their (reviewing) act straightened out today.
