Hi all,

I just got notified that my contributor application was declined.

The message read:
"In order for Shutterstock to maintain the high standard of our collection, new contributors must receive approval of at least seven of their first ten images. Unfortunately, while some of the images you submitted may meet our guidelines, we are unable to approve seven."

....however, when I clicked on the link that was provided with the message, 7 pictures WERE approved. Am I missing something, or is this an error on the reviewer part?

Thanks for the help

Double check that 7 or more were actually approved and, if so, email support and ask them to explain/rectify.

Good luck :)

THis has been a problem with several new contributors lately. It shows you have received the minimum number needed but it then says you did not reach the minimum number needed. As Jane said write support and give them the details.

I double-checked and there is 7 pictures approved and 3 that were not.

I have emailed SS. I will see what the reply is.

Thanks for the help.

I have the problem with new chance time...
They said I need to wait one more day, but that notification is about six days :))))

Why they are so slowly with that?
