FTP Folders for upload not as in documentation

[Pukkascott]

It's been a while since I uploaded to Alamy so I thought I would check the upload specs on "How do I send you my stock images".

Had no problem logging in to the FTP both for News and standard uploads, but the documentation states:

3. Drag your images to the relevant folder:

• Live News (news, sport, entertainment less than 24 hours old)
• Stock (if it’s your first submission only send 3 images)
• Archive stock (for all reportage and archival images)
• Vectors (for all vector files)

I don't see these folders - all I see is 

• 360
• Stock
• Vectors

 

Is this because the documentation is out of date or should I be seeing other folders?

 

Thanks

This is what I see:

Looks like you should see the Reportage/archival, you do not have live news - I seem to have lost my live news access as well, since I have not done any for more than a year

Alamy took that away a few months ago from all but regular news uploaders- there was a lot of complaint about it on here, especially as it didn't make much difference to the rubbish on the newsfeed.

I can see the categories using the website link but I am trying to use the FTP method.

 

Here are the complete instructions:

FTP

This is a quick and easy way to send us your images:

1. You’ll need an FTP client, we recommend Filezilla, FirefTP, WinSCP, Cyberduck, or ClassicFTP

2. Enter Alamy’s FTP details into your FTP Client:

• Host name: upload.alamy.com
• Login/username: Your Alamy email
• Port: 21
• Your password is the same as your Alamy login

3. Drag your images to the relevant folder:

• Live News (news, sport, entertainment less than 24 hours old)
• Stock (if it’s your first submission only send 3 images)
• Archive stock (for all reportage and archival images)
• Vectors (for all vector files)

The folders are not displayed as above

 

UPDATE - I noticed that using the website link I can only upload to stock and not the News or Archive areas so this could be why I only get the 360, stock and vectors folders.
