I have a lot of images taken with a D90. Only problems I've ever had with QC have all been my own fault. My first submissions were from a D40 and there's a few on here, as well. Krisken

I only use a camera bag for transporting in vehicle. When wandering around, usually have camera slung from left shoulder, either under coat or gilet depending on weather. Out of view until needed and I've used the same technique for Nikon D40, D90, D500 and a Fuji FInepix 9600. Got down to one lens - 18-300 for the focal lengths I may cover. Got a 50mm 2.8 which I sometimes carry in a pocket. Krisken

Am using Firefox. Just cleared my cache and now the site is working as normal, if that helps. Three dots/bars on right of page, click on 'library-history,' delete all, or untick rest of options you wish to keep.

I do miss Live News access. Recently dropped into two events, Triathlon and Kite Flying, where the images could have been immediately uploaded. Instead the images of the cycling part of the event were uploaded afterwards, and the kite flyers are still waiting to be processed and uploaded. Krisken

Well done, sir! Krisken

As a newbie joining a professional photography library, I was as nervous as a long tailed cat in roomful of rocking chairs when first submitting my images. (Still am). Never having been involved in the photography industry in any way, shape or form, in previous careers I made sure I didn't make an ass of myself or leave myself open to being flayed by those whose hard learned skills and expertise greatly surpassed mine. Every image gets a good, hard evaluation, before submission and as Betty says, emotional attachment to an image can damage you professionally. (The Blinking Eye) 'T

Strange landmark to celebrate, I know. With health problems and a serious injury in the past, my upload rate petered out, and I was only taking a fraction of the shots I used to take. From carrying a camera on me at all times, even if it was only to the shops, there were long periods of time it stayed at home. Only recently started taking new images instead of trawling through previous ones taken with a variety of cameras, and I'm, hopefully, starting to get my photographic eye back in. Whoop! 1500!! Oh, hello nurse didn't see you there with that big needle... Happy sna

Thanks for replying, Doc. You're right and I panicked like a five year old when I realised I had missed a step in usual workflow routine. Mind, I'm at the coast for a week and found that they were having their annual Triathalon event the day after I arrived. Great shots of the cycling part of the event and that's when I found the withdrawal of the 'Live News Feed' facility a drawback. Still, the submission passed rapidly and I was able to upload some more after they did so. Take care, Krisken

Big Thanks to Alamy for sorting out my ginormous clanger. Basics for the peanut gallery, new camera, 46 images uploaded, uncompressed 60 megabytes each. Instead of rejection and hit on upload rating, all of them passed. Warmly appreciated Alamy guys 'n gals. Krisken.

Upgraded my camera last weekend, also added a new lens and a Nikon flash, supplied by Cotswold Cameras. Communication with the company was brilliant, regarding tracking, and an extra two year warranty upgrade on top of the firm's own three year one. All the items were Nikon gold boxed and I'm delighted with them. Grey imports? Yes, I believe so and I'm not concerned about it. The price for the camera, lens and flashgun were just above what the camera alone costs by itself. I'm not a professional shooter and this new kit allows me to supply hi quality images to Alamy without sendin

One dropped in last night. Pint of beer just. Not complaining, just grateful that a five month drought is over. Alamy measures chart flatlined and not even a defibrillator would have helped, I thought. Who to blame? Me. I seriously need to retag most of my images in a different way, not just the recent uploads. One sale per thousand images? (Oh Lawd, I'd sell your grandmother and her little dog to reach those dizzying heights of success.) Krisken

I think I have some D40 pics on here. When the mp level was way high. As others have already said, a camera like a Nikon, ( or whatever make you decide on) , with an APS-C sensor, and the now 17mb upload requirement, should see a little click happy bunny. One who's going to hog your computer for processing, editing and uploading. Krisken

Cheers Harry. Look very useful, especially the Raw editor. Krisken .

I think that somewhere along the line I earned a short stay in the greybar hotel. I much prefer this new method of one of the staff popping round and giving you a kidney punch, instead. Once the liquid turns back from red to yellow, usually 2 to 3 days, one is all set again. Krisken

Bit confused by the hoop jumping you are mentioning. I know what is being referred to, as I have done it myself, mainly, when forgetting to tick the 'automatic log'-in box on the sign in page. Do those of you having to sign in not have this option on your systems? I'm using Firefox on a Windows OS. Ah, brain cell just sputtered, Firefox. has a, 'save password for this site?', option I'm using, which prefills the required fields and lets me in on tapping the sign-in button. Krisken
