Thank you for the info. I am aware of it. Also if my settings were wrong it should NOT connect me randomly let say after 4-5 tries. I am following the instructions there except the very last ( NOT TO SAVE PASSWORD ) because it is not very convenient every time you want to upload you have to type your password.

In the last couple of month uploading videos feels like playing a fortune wheel. Once it works and then -34 times not. It looks like it has something to do with security ( which is fine ), but apparently it does not like it when your ftp client already has your password stored in, as well as the port should be filled again each time. I am using FileZilla and I have to fill my password and port 21 pretty much every time I upload otherwise I get this:

AS accept editorial illustrative..still quite limited with no people but that might change.

In case Shutterstock does not do anything here is an alternative https://liebowitzlawfirm.com Hopefully it helps.

I have been contacted the same way by Dreamstime. it happened 3 or 4 times. I ignored the emails because I had to take down the image from everywhere else and have it exclusive there... not my thing. If this is via Shutterstock should be legit but it is your choice if it is worth.

Cinema 4d is quite user friendly, however it is not free.

They are nice. Personally, I would brighten just a touch some of them.

Under the main tab in the mobile app (house icon) it shows any activity like approved, rejected and sold for the first time. When you get notification for "added to lightboxes" you should look there and it will show which images are added to customer lightboxes.

Maybe in the description you should mention that it is “abstract photography”. Otherwise write directly to support as any reviewer when in doubt can see from the file info if it is an illustration, 3d or camera produced.

@Kate Shutterstock @Jeff De There is a bug in the video collections. They dont show the selected preview frame of the video as a cover image, but show the very first frame of the video/animation. In some cases that is a black frame.

That is great news

Please add an option for collections to show the most recent images/videos first. Now clients see the oldest images first.... like 10 years old (not very exciting).

I do ProRes as it gives the most quality. Sadly Shutterstock recompress all videos so the preview is terrible.

It would be nice if there was a kind of warning from Shutterstock like "This is a low resolution preview, the client will be able to download the high res video/animation." Just because the first impression matters..... and if some clients dont know that it is a low res preview only, then they will just move forward.
