But that's not what you've been told at all. You've been told to stop submitting images to Live News because your images weren't selling as News.

I deduce that the reason is as you say, but in actual fact I haven't been told anything. I found out from the forum, not Alamy. The anger is for not telling us as much as for the policy. I won't be taking any steps to improve my news images because Alamy won't accept them. There's probably no point exchanging any more posts in which the same point is repeatedly made and missed.

Hello Keith, You make your points clearly, come on over to the Live News thread and share your thoughts over there. I appreciate you may see some some views on any statement which include the phrase "implementing a plan", that is the most common issue I have seen in this discussion. Most of the ire is directed at the implementation. I have plans to improve my news images, forgive me for not sharing. Alamy's actions prompted this self examination. I just wish it could have been prompted in a manner I expected from Alamy. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
