rwphotografik Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Hi I am a first time contributor with Alamy and last night uploaded a story. I wondered how I can get a link to my story to promote it on social media with a link something like this: www.alamy.com/new/0000000/justice-for-sarah-reed-protest-london The 000000 in this example is the media ref number to the story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niels Quist Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Hi I am a first time contributor with Alamy and last night uploaded a story. I wondered how I can get a link to my story to promote it on social media with a link something like this: www.alamy.com/new/0000000/justice-for-sarah-reed-protest-london The 000000 in this example is the media ref number to the story I can see there is an upload of news images at Alamy News about Sarah Reed. Images here are called news images at Alamy (with a headline and description). The term story belongs to somewhere else, but the content could be very much the same. If I am right this is how you could link to it: The first about 48 hours you can use your link to your group of images in the Alamy News container. This link is a long string, but it can be shortened considerably in tinyurl.com After about 48 hours the images are transferred to your Alamy stock collection. In this you can make a lightbox and forward the link in the same way. The images may not be presented as you are used to, though. I think I have guessed why you call it a "story"... Good luck. PS If I am correct I wasn't aware that it was possible to upload to Alamy News before you were a stock contributor - as Philippe states, your number of stock images is zero.

Lisa Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Hi Ruth, Didn't see this post until now. Here is your link. https://www.alamy.com/news/#BHM=foo%3Dbar%26qt%3Dsarah%2520reed%2520protests%26pn%3D1%26ps%3D120%26aoa%3D1%26news%3D%26sports%3D%26entmt%3D%26Videos%3D%26bb%3D4%26md%3D%26dt%3D%26gid%3D%26destxml%3D%26imglst%3D%26orderby%3DDT%26newsseq%3D%26userid%3D%7B8B514604-97CF-431B-9B22-E8D790FD7CCE%7D%26rand%3D1456413752743 This link will work even after 48 hours, but you have to create the link within the first 48 hours.
