The more times you pass QC. the faster your work will be reviewed in the future.After you submit work, you get an email whether you passed or not. If passed, then you keyword by going to MyAlamy and clicking on Manage images,
What are the steps that Alamy QC goes through? I'm wondering if there is another stage between processing and awaiting QC. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Ibeleive they announced that reviewers would be on break for the holeidays so that review times would take longer than normal.It may take some time for them to get cauht up and to normal speed after new years

Until last week, I didn't know they took a break from reviewing on weekends. And now the holidays are coming, I'd expect more vacation/holiday time off.Good news, my last submission passed, before they left. I don't have to spend days wondering if I got a batch rejection. Not that I get that often, or maybe never, but I have uploaded singles as a test, which got rejected. That always takes days and days. An Alamy way to give us a time out, to think about self review and standards.
How many QC stars have you got? If you are 5*, your files are accepted and you can manage them within seconds/minutes depending on batch size, and they go live at the next database update.

Maybe someone can explain why I have different numbers of images, 82 more, when I look at Image Manager than when I look at the total on Contributor Dashboard or my portfolio?

Say you uploaded a batch of 82 and had one rejection, you'd have to upload them all again, and forever more you'd have 82 more pics in IM, as they'd show in your rejected batch and in your reuploaded and accepted batch. (or more rejections/smaller batches).
Interesting, if I understand you right. A rejection counts as an image in my portfolio?
I can't see any way to remove them, so forever, I'll have rejected batches and images, counting in my total in Image Manager?
Well that would explain the different numbers.
Back to the stars thing. I'd expect that five stars would show and then how many, will be filled in, depending on anyone's rank. As that's the way it was for three stars. Not that the button icon grows as anyone gets another star level. Just an assumption because coding it would make more sense that way.
Good news if I can move up and have less delays, because like everyone else, my work and images are all so important and amazing, they need to be activated as soon as possible. Honestly for News that would be nice.
Just uploaded the wrong file in error, and I'm searching for how to delete the image, which is sure to fail, before it gets to review. Clicked all over, I can't find out how? Anyone know?
