最近又燃起圖庫魂~ 較積極的傳圖~ 主要在整理之前 SS 通過的圖 拼 ShotWill 的上線數~
想想我 iStockphoto 一直沒加入..而前不久買的自由攝影師的生財之道大公開也是介紹這家圖庫,
那就來試試他們家的考試好了...

2/13的時候註了冊~

3月初吧,挑了三張圖參加驗收考試~

結果全軍覆沒...

↑打槍理由大概是說已經有太多類似的圖~ 太平凡了~ so 三天後再傳吧....

於是過了三天能再上傳時又再傳了三張.....

↑還好過了一張...
其他兩張打槍理由大概是說濾鏡效果太過啦~ 八拉八拉的 .. 評的還頗認真.. 一長串~
有興趣的可以看看做參考..

DSC_3204_5_6.jpg: Rejected
This image appears to be over-filtered/over-processed which has affected the image quality. This may include Photoshop filters & effects (over-sharpening, excessive adjustments to levels, curves, contrast, hues, gaussian blurs, saturation, added textures, noise reduction...) or other manipulations. We feel the image would have more value to designers with minimal or no post processing effects so that the designers could add their own post-processing effects. Some images can benefit from minor touch-ups to grab the viewer?s attention and there is no definitive line to what editing makes or breaks a great image but the end result should be a single image that can still be molded into a design. Inspectors judge images based on quality, composition and usability.

DSC_6346.JPG: Rejected
This file contains artifacting when viewed at full size. This technical issue is commonly created by the quality settings in-camera, in post-processing, in RAW settings or scanner settings. Artifacting can also be introduced into an image from the result of other factors such as excessive level adjustments.

A little bit more about compression: The JPEG file format uses a lossy compression method. In order to make the file smaller, information is thrown away, or lost. The quality setting that most image editing programs and digital cameras have when saving JPEGs determines how much information is lost. At a certain point with lower quality settings the removal of information during the compression process can become visible in the form of compression artifacts (places in the image where too much detail has been lost). Too much JPEG compression can become visible either in the form of a general loss of detail, or grainy/patterned areas (especially in flat spaces, such as skies).

Compression artifacting can be introduced by the camera and/or by your image editing software at lower quality settings. Also, re-sizing, re-sampling, and re-saving can all degrade the quality of a JPEG image, so one should be careful about re-saving JPEGs. If for example, a photo was re-saved 4 times (even at a quality of 12 or Best) the image quality will become worse each time as pixel information is thrown out each time the file is saved. With this in mind, it is obviously best to start with the cleanest image possible. You may want to double-check your camera settings to make sure it is saving at the highest quality. If you continue to have issues you may try shooting in RAW/NEF mode, export to TIFF and then save as JPEG at the highest possible quality (level 12) with minimal or no post processing effects. Sometimes even trying a new RAW converter could be beneficial.

Noise (pixels of varying color where there shouldn?t be) is most commonly created by digital cameras, especially in darker shadows or under low-light conditions and exacerbates the compression issues mentioned above. You might want to double-check to make sure that your camera?s ISO/ASA setting is at the lowest number (usually 100). In digital cameras, higher numbers (200 or 400) will always result in more noise (just as with film).

iStockphoto 考試的優點是,過關的圖就是過了,不像 SS 需重傳10張,重新審核..
於是過三天再傳了兩張... 

↑結果左邊的過了~

喔耶~剩最後一張... 這次不是等三天就可以.. 變成要等五天..
這次挑個我最喜歡的六十石山風景圖試試好了~


↑結果如圖~ 過關!

但這三張考過的圖不像 SS 過關了就直接上線~
要重新上傳圖做審核,審核過了才可以...
改天重傳這考過的圖試試...
感覺介面上來說還是 SS 跟 DT 比較直覺化.. Istockphoto攝影師後台介面還真不好用... 是我不會用嗎?..  
而要成為他們家的插圖或影片供應者,要另外讀完線上的一些說明後,另外通過考試才能上傳...
不像 SS 考試過一次就好.. 其他的類型也是可以上傳...
ShotWil 就不用說了... 中文介面~ 上傳操作起來堪稱方便.. 關鍵字系統也不難~

月底再來更新一下我ShotWil 三月份上傳及被下載的情況~
