Выкладывайте как есть, многие и так поймут, а может у кого будет время перевести.
OK!
Вот о чём мне поведала дама с хелпдеска (все выделения сделаны мной).
Здесь она пишет про иллюстрации:
"Did you check only recently accepted files?
Our pricing structure has changed over the years which is why it's very important to not compare your file with 4 or 5 year old vectors online. For the past year or half year, all files containing different colored circles have been priced at 1 credit. If you do find a recent example of one priced higher please let me know and I will fix it"
"In particular, we've seen a huge expansion in our vector library, and have attracted some extremely talented artists to the site (I'd highly recommend you take a look at the recently accepted vector files, the quality and complexity of these files are the best we have ever had). Many of the uploaders who've been with us for years have steadily grown better as well.
Because of this, we are always increasing our minimum standards for file acceptance"
Теперь касательно общей концепции принятия файлов:
"Sorry, but we're continually re-evaluating our acceptance standards and raising the bar for our files. iStock has done this since it was launched over 5 years ago. With the continued expansion of technology, and older contributors gaining valuable skills and experience as they work, we are able to accept better and better images into our library. This is a growth process for both us and our artists
(..........)
However, this means that there are several older files in our gallery that don't match up to current uploads.
If you take a look at photos that were being approved at the same time as older vector files (say, more than a year ago), you will see they also aren't up to current standards, and many (possibly even most) of them would be rejected today due to technical, lighting, or composition problems. The entire library, photos and illustrations, is growing better every day"
А здесь она коснулась темы повторных загрузок и похожих файлов:
"In regards to the 'Duplicate' comment, we have always rejected duplicate uploads, however it was often difficult for an inspector to determine whether a similar file was in the user's portfolio.
We recently implemented several improvements to the inspection process and now inspectors have easy access to member's portfolios, so they can check to ensure there are not similar file versions online. This is not a new rejection, we're just able to police it better now.
As to icons and buttons, we cannot accept multiple versions of the same file. If you wish to include different color versions, please put them all in a single file. We do not consider basic color changes to be a completely new image, and it is likely that different colored versions of a file will be rejected as duplicates. This is to help prevent upload abuse, and the exact same rules apply for photographers and Flash contributors. We cannot bend the rules for anyone, sorry"
Пока нет времени напечатать русский перевод. Если кто-то сможет сделать это вместо меня, буду благодарна.
