Semmick Photo Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I have 12 images up since 22 December. I figured there would be a xmas and NY slow down on the queue. But I am starting to think its my first failed batch. Weird thing is, I have submitted 150 of the same concept, using the same donor image, and never failed one. Could it be a back log or a fail? How long have your images been in the queue for around the holidays? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Robinson Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Mine have been there since the 21st - no reason to think I've failed. It's just Christmas. I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Holmes Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Alamy posted this, http://discussion.alamy.com/index.php?/topic/1667-christmas-cover/ to explain a possible extended wait for QC during the holidays. I've decided to stockpile by limited output until things settle down again, to reduce the angst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semmick Photo Posted January 2, 2014 Author Share Posted January 2, 2014 Thanks guys, I missed that one. Gave you both a vote up Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jools Elliott Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I knew about the delay but was getting curious just how long others may have been waiting. Mine have been in the queue since the 23rd so I'll think I'll relax a touch. In any case, I don't want to be thinking about work until next week.

Jools Elliott Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Well, nothing on Saturday so I guess we'll all have to wait until next week before the wheels start turning again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Bell Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Well, nothing on Saturday so I guess we'll all have to wait until next week before the wheels start turning again!

Semmick Photo Posted January 5, 2014 Author Share Posted January 5, 2014 Its nice to get a bit of experience on how it feels as if it were a fail. I normally wouldnt get a chance to experience it, since my work is 100% approved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arletta Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Semi, I uploaded over 80 batches and can't say if long review time means rejected photos My review time is 1-4 days. It happens waiting 2 weeks (usually technical problems of Alamy, reaction only after my email). I had one batch rejected (visible retouching in one image, my fault) and review time was 2 days, as normal But, today I can say, long time review is good to rethink if my images are good to let them live... But... it suspends working I always worry if my English is good enought to you understand what I mean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveC Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I have been a little worried since uploading on December 22nd. They usually pass QC in 24 to 36 hours. But, this morning I got the "Now manage your images" green light, so it does appear to be a delay in the line up due to the Christmas holidays.

You made me check, and yes, I got greeny too. Have been a bit concern because I PPed this batch on a laptop. Phuh.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arletta Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Wait a minute! Do you tell me you can manage images from 22nd Dec. batch and I'm waiting with 20th Dec. batch? Oh, this is not fair! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
