Attention: New Forum in Progress

Unfortunately, our current forum software is causing us some problems, so we have decided to turn off the posting capabilities - for now. We decided to develop our very own forum to get it just right - and it will be up and running again towards the end of August.

We're sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. Until the new forum is available, you can still browse and read the old forums, but unfortunately not post new messages.

Thank you so much for your patience!

Article: The keyword review: Part 1

RE: The keyword review: Part 1
you're not quite right with background. well, this particular mixer image has nothing to do with background, but whenever i submit image with white background for example, i include words "white" and "background". it's the way it should be done - if designer is searching for "fit sexy blond in provocative lingerie over WHITE BACKGROUND" - it's it. bingo! go directly to my portfolio, it has hundreeds ;]

Quite agree with mentioned above. Background gotta stay. Wallpaper would not fit though.

How can I correct some misspelled keywords?

We do not currently allow users to correct such information themselves, so you will have to let us know by e-mail which keywords (on which picture) you need corrected.

RE: The keyword review: Part 1
In response to the previous comment. To me being able to, not just adjust spelling, but also keywords is important. It's important, especially for search engines like Google, that people are able to fine tune their website's keywords, to improve accuracy of reporting and result collation. To me, adding pertinent keywords, not previously thought of, would be equally important.

However, with regards to the article itself, I'm a little confused by the writer's intentions. The writer used the word 'rejected' on certain keywords, what did the writer mean? The whole picture was out-right rejected, or the keyword would be removed prior to the image being accepted (assuming its quality is up to par)? If images are being rejected based on keywords entered, then that would make it a little agonising for those who upload batches of images.

RE: The keyword review: Part 1
Writing "rejected" in this article was meant in reference to the particular keyword being rejected (removed), not the whole picture. That said, if we recieve badly keyworded images, we will often reject them on that basis.
