I think it would be a lot less work for contributors and reviewers if a raster version could be generated automatically upon approved illustrations. Possibly included in the area of entering keywords have a checkbox asking the contributor if approved would you like a raster version mase available yes or no. I know some of my stuff in my port doesn't/shouldn't need one. Not sure if that will alleviate stress on the database but it might make the search easier.
Thanks for listening,

I agree with this. It would remove a lot of extra work for the contributors but also for the buyers.
Accidentally finding a jpeg when you need a vector and having to search to se if there is a vector version is extra work.

Oh, yes, I agree. That would be much better!

Totally agree. Every other site I contribute to shows the image only once and gives the buyer the option to download either a jpg or vector.

I forgot to mention that it will keep our ports clean and free of duplicates like linneae stated buyers looking for vector and all they find is raster or vice versa.
