Hopefully things are not extra rigorous under the new regime, but they are low ISO shots taken in bright sunlight so should be OK. No hurry actually, rate of upload pretty sluggish at this time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stokie Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I had 24 images uploaded on Friday early evening waiting in the QC queue over the weekend. They all cleared this morning first thing. I'm 5 stars. I've had 8 or 9 submissions go through in seconds before that. Presume they do a check every now and then, or is it just a Friday afternoon/evening thing I wonder? John.

I hadn't heard of anybody with those before. John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Harrison Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 It's very interesting in that it's the first official public acknowledgement of any change to the QC ratings. It's the standard page but they've updated the QC rating section and they've done it very recently, though the page isn't dated. As was noted in the other thread, there is no mention of how they are rolling it out and why some users on this forum with impeccable uploading records don't have 5 stars yet.

Along with weekends. 3 QC stars here and no failures for very long time. I submitted 4 images late Saturday and it wasn't until Monday noon that the "you passed QC" email came into my inbox. Of course it could be worse I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
