Thanks Jon, I saw the updated error message : )

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.

I'm having continued problems loading, but I'm not worried about it...It looks like they're working hard to work out the bugs/details on this site.

Wow! That's great:)

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.

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.

Dang it, even I have a download already. Only 499 to go until my first check ... : )

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...

Workin Away,
Jon

10/25/2004 02:14:51 AM · #88

coding away,
Jon

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 feel your pain...I am on dial up all the time...we cannot get High Speed where I am living....
10/26/2004 10:49:54 AM · #93
yaaa... 2 downloads finally... my first pennies.
10/26/2004 10:53:22 AM · #94
Wow, there seems to be a lot of movement on this site...nothing for my two photos yet, though.

I hope to upload the rest tomorrow...
10/26/2004 10:53:45 AM · #95
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..


10/26/2004 01:09:49 PM · #96
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 think my shutterstock earnings are going to catch up to my dreamstime, and istock earnings sooner than later.

Why, what are your stats for all the sites?

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.
