Hallelujah! Great news.

I was thinking timelapses - but if theres not too much of a gap between each 12 min video - it should be ok.

i know i know.. just save some ground floor for me! haha. jk jk

two files from 6th waiting...
thanks for caring

You're right, as usual, Dave. I just saw this thread http://www.istockphoto.com/forum_messages.php?threadid=77912&page=1 and there really is a major crackdown on serial spammers. This is awesome news!

I have a standard 30 day statement and 2% per month interest - However, clients typiclally pay in the 30 to 60 day range. I start to harass after 60, and if it goes to 90, then I send a new invoice with interest to that point. Depending on the client, when they are new I charge 50% up front, the balance on completion, after one or two jobs I have a feel for them and they get the full credit. If they come by referral, or if I know the company in some way then I will start work on a handshake and bill when done. I have had one or issues in ten years, but 99% of the time all goes well.

I am a self taught on adobe illustrator and have hit a few bumps along the way trying to go for illustrator status, but I think I finally have it. Can you guys please give me a few technical details, hints, or words of wisdom? Simple critiques work too. I would really appreciate it. See my images below.

Or I can sell them on Scoopt. They are part of the Getty family too!

I'd also like to be added to the waiting list if everyone can't make it. :)

So Annett, don´t worry, it´s not this weekend :-) Maybe go in contact with bibi, maybe you all can come together.

Hey 5* how's yr health?

Hey gang... let me clear a few things up...


Firslty I just want to say the guest judges were hand picked before the competition started.
They were intensly trained even though I feel without training they are more then adequate judges and have celebrity status as designers for a reason. They werent announced to the end for a surprise not for any other reason.
And more importantly they done an amazing job and called it exactly how it is.


To answer the question that my comments were biased... Un fortunately there has to be a winner and my comments only backed up my scores and what i seen in the designs.. one of the main reasons guest judges were bought in so no one could say judging was biased. I never ever judge a person I strictly only ever judge the designs so does every judge. So I was a little shocked to here that.


I think theres no doubt that nbodine is the clear winner... I canvas a lot of people for there input and its been pretty unanimous.


Rosen I know your upset.. and you have every right to be... but just be mindful of how & where you direct your anger.
Ive sent RD a few sitemails but I want to say it openly that you are an intregral piece of this community and I only hope that this definately isnt your last battle and it really hurts us all to know your upset.


Please guys though ease up on him... we do respect your comments but please lets try to keep things positive.


once again HUGE CONGRATS NIKKI

So, this isn't exactly new - I posted something similar about a year ago. We've had a fair number of things happen in that time though, so I figured it was time for an update. Again, this isn't an exhaustive list, but I think it covers the people who are out in the daily public life of iStock.

Has anyone seen this movie or know the font I'm talking about? It's kinda like the font from Juno, anyone know of anything like this?

Beim Express hatte ich schon 2 Mal ne ganze Seite.

I feel for you, I have not touched film in years and I really miss it especially the smell of the chemicals. check this guy out http://www.joecornish.com/, he mostly shoots in the winter and will spend several days and only take a few shots.

That's a good idea - maybe I will take a few "painting pictures"--and I will try to not get paint on the camera!!!





And Roger, thanks for all the instructions - you have been most helpful.





The camera is still waiting to emerge from the box.....

I tried to find this in the forums, but had no luck, I do apologize if this has been asked before. How do I make the jpg image that I need to upload with my movie? I use Final Cut Pro.

it depends where you are? in US/canada, it would be bees, for europe, you can check elincrome's dlite, but in asia you have more options like chinese, indian and others..

I've used them both and I prefer lightroom

Hi mshuwall! First off, what vector editing program are you using (if you've got one)? And are you trying to put each cat into its own separate file? To do that in Adobe Illustrator:

1. Open the 'Layers' palette (under 'Window' > 'Layers')
2. Check to make sure there aren't any little lock icons next to the layers (if there are, click on them to unlock the shapes)
3. If you still can't click on the shapes after unlocking the layers, try going to 'Object > Unlock All' to make sure they aren't locked
4. Using the black arrow tool (hit 'V' on your keyboard to get it), click and drag around the shape you want
5. Copy the shape (on a Mac, 'Command' + the C key... I can't remember the PC command off the top of my head, sorry!)
6. Open a new document (under 'File > New'), and set the document size to whatever you need
7. In the new document, paste the copied graphic ('Command > V')
8. Save the file and close :)

Hope this helps! If you need any more help feel free to post :)

Got it. Please close.





Cheers

Kemie : Peanut free..... free peanuts, is there really a difference ?


Arsenik : Let me know if the instruction manual is helpful. I'm not really good at writing technical stuff, hope it's going to help though.

There isn't an option to have photos on iStock selling as editorial only.


Basically, if the person can identify themselves, e.g. by clothes or context, the pic needs an MR. Even photos only showing hands have been rejected for no MR.


I really do wish 'they' would update the guidelines: it's been about a year since they tightened up the necessity for MRs, yet the guidelines still imply it's OK just if the faces aren't showing. How difficult can it be? [1] - that's the beauty of the internet.


[1] OK, what's difficult is defining what's allowable, but the guidelines can't stay as they are when they clearly are inaccurate and cause a lot of agitation.


Sean, I don't think you meant that double negative. ;-)

The issue here is the police car (Ford Crown Victoria) is the main focus and yes quite big in the composition. Sorry, the deactivation will stand.

Cheers

I think we really should insist on this. It seems like common sense that the refund amount be supplied? I can't understand why it isn't. Rob? Andrew? Anybody?
