theasis 3 iStock Tools / Apps: DeepMeta (Windows) - manage your portfolio
Posted By Marbury:
Yes, I had to change my password recently but I thought Deep Metta was synced to Istock.

iStock will give data to DeepMeta once iStock knows that it's really you. Which is what your password is for.

toddmedia 5 Meetups: Twitter anyone
So few folks I know use Twitter anymore. FaceBook has taken over. Same thing with instant notifications ... yet much more powerful in scope. I've gotten business from FB that I never did with Twitter.

kemie 6 Designers: client wants their website to go to 30 different domains and text translated into related languages?
oh, you definitely do not want to do it manually! even if you can charge lotsa money, it'll be mental death. I say a CMS is the way to go, so you can basically just copy & paste texts in.

For those that never tried it before go to google books and type your copyright name plus istockphoto to look for your images used in books. Have fun.

hemmo 10 Submit Suggestions: Excess Upload Slot Bank
75 slots a week is not that much for a photographer I imagine. What if you get 300 a month, same amount of course but more flexibel when you are traveling for a few weeks. Or 900 slots a quarter. DeepMeta rules for sure, but vector illustrators cannot use it for uploading yet...

bortonia 13 Critique Requests: LOGO: PATHS/OUTLINES
I made a super fast example to show what we mean by 'smoothing out the curves'. Below is your original file. I quickly traced the lines, this time using as few points as possible (on a curve, the more points you have, the lumpier the curve will look). This made much easier to control the curves. The final example shows the two overlaid so you can see the difference in curve smoothness:



Sometimes it's easier to show what I mean rather than try to type it out :)

I'll tag on another question: i'm strongly considering renting a lens or two...I'm just about certain I'll rent a 24-70/f2.8. I'm also considering a 14-24/f2.8 a well...what do you think? Would something that wide be useful? Camera has a DX sensor, 1.5 crop factor.

bunhill 17 Photography: Scanning advice
I don't know the answer re prints and ICE and similar technologies. Certainly there are some scanners which it is claimed can do it.

But the thing is that you don't really want to use ICE and similar technologies for anything archival IMO. It's better to do straight scans at the best possible quality and keep those like originals. Then fix any image you want to use individually in Photoshop.

The point is that as prints and negatives (especially) quickly degrade you want the best possible copy for longevity. Granted that well fixed and washed fibre prints kept in the dark have got better longevity than negatives (all negs pre about 1970 are now potentially starting to break down quite quickly).

taavet 18 iStockvideo: Rejected Files Upload via ftp?

Why should anyone want to upload REJECTED files. I guess those will be rejected again.


Unless you are talking about flies which are allowed to resubmit?

look here, it explains everything about linking files and lightboxes with pictures. And yes, you can change descriptions later: in every file's clseup, in the bottom rigth, click "Administrations/Edit file information"

Try the Critique Forum. Wait, I'll send you there.

I might also suggest you title your thread to reflect your question. This really helps people identify your question. I took the time to provide a better title for your thread this time.

As my Sekonic has gathered dust over the last few years ... I'll ask the question.

Do you trust light meters more than histograms? If so, why?

IDFK303 22 Software: Which is Better?
LOL! Thanks for doing the actual research and posting the results. I'm no expert at this stuff, but for no more of a difference in the file sizes you'd probably make yourself crazy trying to decide if one pic looked better than the other.
