Hrothiberhtaz Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 (edited) I'll explain this entire problem. So after two failed test submissions and 20 wasted days, I finally managed to get 3 images past QC. I filled in the keywords so they showed up on the image manager as on sale, but when I go to My Alamy and its sales graph, my 3 images are indicated as not on sale. When I search up the keywords to my own images in the search bar, they don't show up at all. Then why are they labelled as "on sale" in the image manager with an orange bar next to each one. WHEN will they be up for sale?! I am at the end of my rope here! I have tried my best to get past every single mistake I made to get past QC only to be tripped up at the last hurdle by what appears to be a flaw with the website itself... The reason I decided to get away from 123RF was that its website design was so dysfunctional and outdated that I was unable to upload images AT ALL, now Alamy seems to be messing up too?? For context, the last time I checked whether my images were showing up in the search bar it was about an hour or two after my test submission was accepted, and I have only 1 star out of 3 on my QC ranking, which may have done something to my images' visibility? I'm not sure. Edited August 13, 2019 by Hrothiberhtaz Added more context Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAROL SAUNDERS Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I think you will find they will show up on sale approx 24 hours after you have keywords them, so i.e., if you keyworded them today they should show up tomorrow. Carol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hrothiberhtaz Posted August 13, 2019 Author Share Posted August 13, 2019 Ah, thanks for the info! I hope to have quite a nice time selling my nature photos on this site! When my photo portfolio is set up, I'll see if I can find places on the internet to promote it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OP, you need to check you have deselected the first image in AIM before adding keywords to the next ones. Your picture of a dandelion has no bark, earth etc. in it.
