I don't know if it's just me again, but I have problems inputting the ISBN numbers. Anyone else? DACS have told me that the site is really busy, but I'm struggling big time.

I used to go to copy the link address and then paste it into the post via Insert images from URL. Don't find this is working anymore. How do you get to post your pictures? I'm on Google Chrome, also tried Firefox. Nada. -
Much better than December which was the low point of the year. No refunds (yet)! Zooms are on the up. To sum it up: better start to the year than anticipated.

The German name for marmot is Murmeltier and one of the English translations for Murmeltier is groundhog.
-
Ooops, just realised that EOL has changed a lot since I last used it ...
-
Some people might just search for a groundhog and don't know that they're really marmots. Put the correct version in the caption and add anything else in the keywords. It's also a lot about scientific and common names. So check EOL.

Schöne Fotos. Bear in mind that it's not just a marmot, but an Alpine Marmot (Marmota marmota), put in Groundhog as a keyword and put in the captions, where the photo was taken. Check on EOL for common and scientific names http://www.eol.org What breed is the calf? Why just put in Canal Grande? In English, it's Grand Canal. Etc. be as precise as possible. Keine Angst, das wird schon. :-D

How do I get the 17 MB from a FUJI X-T1 RAW?
vpics replied to 1st_Replicant's topic in Alamy Quality Control and technical queries
I remember it well. And the long wait if you'd made QC ... -
Check the Alamy calculator as if you were buying the image and take it from there.

Translations ... again
vpics replied to vpics's topic in Alamy Quality Control and technical queries
Hahaha. The person concerned was actually Mary Berry - which should have been (if done properly) translated as Maria Beere. But Berry was not translated. -
Hmmm, time to slash my image collection
vpics replied to Mark Baigent's topic in Let's talk about pics
I once got the advice from an agency owner who basically said "if you're shooting stock and the image has a grey sky, delete it". Mainly because, there will be stock photos on sale with blue sky backgrounds that simply look better. And he also said "if the weather's bad (e.g. grey skies), spend time editing your images instead of taking new ones". -
Don't remember what I was looking for, but I noticed that names of people e.g. celebrities called "Mary" are translated as "Maria" on Alamy's Spanish and German language sites. Personal names should never be translated.
