Нет, 18 января прошел экзамен со второй попытки. Вот цитата из письма: "Hi,
Thank you for submitting your first batch of photos to Shutterstock.
Congratulations - your first batch submission to Shutterstock was a success and you are now allowed to upload as many photos as you would like. Please continue with the level of quality that your first batch has shown. "
На следующий день я отправил 8 фотографий, все их отклонили и заставили заново сдавать экзамен. И пришло следующее письмо:
"Hi, Thank you for your submission to Shutterstock.
In order for Shutterstock to maintain the high standard of our photography collection, new submitters must receive approval on at least seven (7) of their first ten (10) images to continue uploading. Unfortunately, while some of the images you submitted may meet our guidelines, we are unable to approve the requisite number and have temporarily disabled the uploading function on your account. This decision was based on concerns about quality, composition, lighting, or other features of your initial batch of images and we have listed the reasons below.
We invite you to resubmit in 30 days. In the meantime, you can still post banners, earn money from referring photographers, and participate in our forum discussions. Please do not create more than one account; doing so will result in permanent suspension.
Thank you for your interest in Shutterstock. We look forward to seeing you again in 30 days!"
Наверное, придется писать в support. Спасибо всем за поддержку!
