I can get in intermittently, and have posted a couple more questions in the forums over there. I am in no hurry ... just glad that I only have to report the problems, not try to fix them.
Yeah, that sounds promising! I really wish I could get more info as to how many subscribers, downloads, etc. there are...I love the way istockphoto has their stats set up, hopefully we can begin seeing more of this type of information from shutterstock.
I just got my first sale too:) Hope this is just the beginning- I really like the site so far.
Cool...I think I've spent a total of 6-8 hours trying to upload and only one has been successfully uploaded so far. All of the others have had 'server timeouts' or something like that. I think I'm going to give up for now!
I did mine 5 at a time the non active x way - only had a time out problem with one batch that went right through the next time I tried - hope this helps - it's a really cool site:)
I also made my first sale (48 hours after submitting the first)
Started uploading to 3 sites from wednesday (12 photos total)
My stats are now :
#1 Dreamstime ($1,00) (4 aproved 8 pending)
#2 Shutterstock ($0.20) (everything aproved nothing pending)
#3 Istock ($0.10) (2 approved 1 rejected rest pending)
This looks promissing, I just used a few old photos that I had lying around. Might be a good reason to get of my lazy ... and do something in the weekends.
We're working on a new activex component -- 3.0 was released of the uploader... so - we're working on the upgrade! This should get rid of some of those server side problems...
I had problems uploading yesterday, but I got it to work after...I have .40 made all ready
I had problems again last night. Uploading 1 photo worked, when I tried 2 at a time I got the 'server error' message...
Again, this is all on dial-up, so I have no idea if that's part of the problem. I'm going to try and upload some from work (speedy computers) this week.
I have made $0.80 now, I think this site might made you some money! But it is a new site so it will take a little while to start....4 download so far is now to bad..
after seeing all this, i went and checked my stats. i already have some downloads too! i'm up to having almost half of my stuff on there. i'm up to $1.40 ! woohoo!
I just signed up to join the fun. Unfortunately no access at home to download photos.
Is anybody cropping any of their own photos to be included?
I've been cropping some of my images to make them more "stock suitable" and then resizing them up to meet the minimum size requirements. I have six downloads so far, one or two/day.
