Betty LaRue Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Being awake since 4 a.m., who knows if my brain is working right. First day on Prednisone is a b***ch. I’m excited to see measures working. Looking at my new zooms, I see I have two that start with A, one B, and a D. Folks, these are old images that I just finished reworking tags and captions on 7-10 days ago. It’s not that none of my long-in-tooth images never get zoomed, they do. But I don’t think I’ve ever had 4 oldies zoomed this close together. (Too many negatives, there? ) Maybe it’s a one-off, won’t happen again. Maybe it’s my jittery brain making too much of it. This cuppa coffee oughta help. Meanwhile, I think I’ll keep plugging away at those oldies. Betty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 good to hear Betty. I have just started to plod along through mine, before I start uploading again (after two and half year break). I had a good read of your Legacy images posting too and it has helped to clarify some things, so thank you Onwards and upwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jill Morgan Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Your motivating me Betty. I haven't really reworked any old images for awhile. Gotta get to it. Can't sell them if people can't find them. Jill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan Bell Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 My legacy images were never searched in the first place. I don't think re-tagging is going to change that. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betty Betty, I have tentatively started re-tagging from the beginning of my submissions and an A from Dec 2006 has recently been zoomed. This hasn't happened before in over 10 years for this one and I'm starting it to think it may well be worth the effort. When I look at my original 'keywording' it was awful and I don't wonder it was never zoomed before. I'm now trying to fit in those odd coffee break times by doing just a few at a time.......we'll see what happens. Could be worth it! Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think that a lot of us didn’t keyword well at the start. It’s not as simple as one might think, with lots of nuance and I am still soaking up tips from the forum. It wasn’t just the keywords, but I had some bad captions. And me, too, on a couple of images never zoomed in 10 years miraculously being zoomed right after reworking them. Thats the kick in the pants that urges me to keep on keeping on. Betty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mitchell Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 I continue to chip away at my old images in a willy-nilly fashion, usually in small sets by subject or location rather than by upload date. I find that I don't get as bored doing the reworking this way. I don't have any miraculous zooms or sales to report yet. However, cleaning things up can be satisfying in itself, plus I can't see how it can hurt matters. How's that for philosophical validation?

Just remember if you eventually get down to only the boring ones that are left, you might lose interest. I hate doing the boring ones, but it’s easier if they’re mixed in.
