Hi massman -

Thanks for rerporting this.
I'll PM you to get the details. This definitely sounds like an error.

We'll be diving into investigate this issue now.

- Brian

Hi Brian,

Could investigate my earlier post in the other (June 8th) thread on this subject as well.

ALL 10 of mine got REJECTED!!!!!!

come on and all for the same reason!  but nothing to do with the images

"Blur / focus problems. Also improper image editing on 'Red rose with engagement ring'. "

but they are not all the same subject



I think I got a bad review!!!!




Mine too!!  :(
The reason: "Not suitable for stock lack of commercial appeal. The white background, cut shots are good, please submit   more of those. Make sure food looks appealing and well lit. "

Hi cthoman -

There is no opt-out for extended licenses. All files will be available for buyers who need extended license options.

Once we roll out the full buyer-side Marketplace release later this summer, there will be on page options for buyers to select one or more extended license options. Currently this must be done via Veer customer service. 

- Brian

That's a shame. The no opt out was part of the reason I removed my images at Snap Village. I guess that means no Veer for me. Thanks for answering my question though.

Hi RT -

I'll PM you for specific details as well (asset IDs et al). We'll investigate.
Thanks for highlighting this on the other thread - it's been a buy day!  ;)

I can't see any place names in my keywords and I can't find any of the places when I do a search.  We simply have to be able to edit our keywords or this is going to be a mess.

The site is a pure pleasure to work with. I love the interface and attention to detail. Is it possible to send you DVD with a couple of thousands photos instead of uploading them all via FTP?

Most of my images from SV were transferred, but not all. I also have the problems that many of the keyword are incorrect or missing. Some of my thumbnails are also missing.

Hi Oboy -

Thanks for the PM - we're currently investigating the keyword issue on transferred content.

Images that are not showing up have not yet been loaded, - these will display as "blanks" until they have been processed by the system. It may take another week or two to finish loading and processing content transferred from SnapVillage.

I'm all set up on the Veer site. The workspace section says I can upload 100 images. I press the upload button for the browser but nothing happens. Then I tried FTP but it says log on fails. anyone else having problems trying to upload images?

FTP errors as far as I can see.

I used CoreFTP, Filezilla and CuteFTP - none of them worked. CoreFTP just failed completely couldn't even get passed authorization. Filezilla and CuteFTP got through authorization but were unable to read directory and disconnected.
Yes I did set it to explicit TSL/SSL.

The design reminds me a bit of Lucky Oliver *getting chills*.

I didn't find it intuitive at all. Content is all cluttered. Too many tabs all over the page. Some on the top some on the bottom.
I will get used to it but I've never seen something like this.

I can't even find a link where it displays my sales. No matter where I click on I just feel like I'm getting lost.
So many links... Twitter, Flick, Virb...  :-X

What does the link "Create new portfolio" mean?

Why does the system tell me that there is a job available in my area as a PHP developer? Why would I want to apply there?
Is this a job search site? Also it says "powered by Authentic Jobs"...

Oohh I found it....
The "Dashboard"... How could I miss that - of course - dashboard means "Sales statistics"...  :P

Seriously:
Quote
Dashboard. Every hero has a secret lair, and any decent secret lair has a wall of screens showing you what's going on, at a glance. This is yours. Use the dashboard to track the status of your submissions. Later, you'll also find information about your sales and earnings.

Lucky Oliver comes back to mind. Is anyone from your staff into Warcraft?

I'll see how Veer works out in the next few months. I hope it's worth all the funky design and language on the site.
I wonder who the buyers are...  ???

I don't know...

Hey Brian,

I'm experiencing the same issues with a lot of my photos, some have some really strange keywords, and some have no keywords.  Hopefully these hiccups will be taken care of quickly.

If you need some image numbers, please let me know and I'll get them to you.

Hi Everyone,

I received my password and account login information.  So far I've been able to go through the upload process without issue.  However, I noticed I have a limit of submitting 100 photos.  My question are:

1. How was this limit established?

2.  What happens when I have submitted over 100 images?

3.  Is this limit per day or per month or per?

4.  Will this limit change?

Thanks!

Can you please clarify the question regarding payments. No Moneybookers, only PayPal and Payoneer?  In my country I cannot receive payments through PayPal. I don't know anything about Payoneer, but even if I can use that option I am not keen to use another payment option at additional costs just to be used with VeerMP.  Seems the reluctance of SV to pay international contributors is continuing. >:(

We're still investigating the keyword issue on transferred content. So far, we think this might be isolated to certain accounts with content that has not been pushed live to the site yet. We'll keep you updated.

One thing to mention: you'll be seeing the mapped terms in the Veer controlled vocabulary. This means that you won't necessarily see all broader terms, synonyms, and spelling variants - the CV has taken care of those and is only displaying the primary terms.

Hi Melking -

As I mentioned in the PM - this was a system error on our part. Please resubmit your files.

Thanks for your patience with our first day of production.

Hi Borg -

Yes. We are only required to withhold taxes on US source income only. Royalties earned from non-US customers are not subject to withholding tax.

Hi sgcallaway1994 -

The default submission limit for accepted contributors is 100 files per week. This was established to help make sure that content moves through the queue efficiently. This threshold was established based upon polling on this site and elsewhere, as well as usability study feedback.

It's possible the limit may change in the future. For now we're going to make sure our systems are in good shape, and our editing team is up to speed.

Hi Eco -

For now, we will be offering royalty payments through either PayPal or Payoneer. We'd very much like to offer Moneybookers - and had planned on doing so - but unfortunately, our setup is not compatible with Moneybooker's current offering. We'll continue to work towards offering alternate royalty payment options in the future.

A bit more on Payoneer: they offer a Veer branded prepaid debit-Mastercard that may be a good option for those for whom PayPal is not. Your royalties are loaded onto the card - which can then be extracted at nearly any ATM or used in a retail transaction online or in person. It's a pretty cool setup - we're really impressed with them so far!

Hi,

What will Veer do about the watermark? In isolated objects it's totally useless in most cases.

This means that Veer is offering our images for the web sizes, and it's an invitation for image theft, especially in a segment that brings a lot of sales in micro, the xs sizes.

We've gone through this ordeal with Snapvillage, and I would expect it to be taken care from the start with Veer!

Regards,
e=mg2
