High Unapproved Rating

Too many pics don’t get approved because the title is not descriptive enough, or supposedly not in english, even though it is. Or title doesn’t describe the image. We are artists, we title a picture how we feel like it should be titled. As a creator, song writer, photographer, producer, it just bothers me that a majority of my pictures get declined because of the title.. It should be based on the quality of the photo, not the title or description. Two people could see the same image and title it and describe it in two different ways.. and I don’t see a rename title or rewrite a description feature to update it once it gets declined. I just get frustrated because most of my pictures get declined for the wrong reasons. Very few seem to have legitimate reasons to be declined.

It’s ok

I have been using shutter stock contributor for a few months, and it’s not bad, but I also don’t have very many positives about it either. I would suggest putting your pictures on a few different sites if you’re wanting to sell them.

Not receiving confirmation email

Waste of time. If an app won’t even send a confirmation email for signing up I’d hate to see how payments are handled.

Couldn’t upload photo

use my code to sign up

I tried many times to upload my photo but the app kept making me fail due to redundant keywords. When i was uploading my photo it says that I can add up to 50 keywords so I did 49 and hit the submit and failed message appeared. So i cut half of my keywords and saved submitted again but still kept failing. Then restarted app tried again failed again. Decided to decrease my keywords to 10 but still kept showing me redundant keywords message. Then visited help center which says app uploading process may delayed so I could try some time later. I tried an hour later again and still failing to submit my photo. That’s what it is.
