        yeah, I agree on that one! After all, you won't be having pics uploaded from me for the next 3 weeks as I shall visit relatives who don't have internet

          This was a normal reaction (kind of like stocks). Eventually it settles down to reasonable numbers. Looks like it took a couple days and now the uploads are back to normal.

          Good job guys. Thanks for the hard work.

            I hope you are right, the number of uploads is still very high, about twice as much as last week. There is a number of screeners screening large quantities daily to keep the queue in control

            cheers, Pamela

                  3898.

                  That was the number I was presented with after I just finished uploading a photo.

                  Stunning. Absolutely stunning. I have never seen it this low. Kudos to all you screeners.

                    Months ago it used to be, "submit 'em and forget 'em."

                    Now we get results in days instead of weeks!

                    The screening effort on your personal time is appreciated!

                      The current speed is at 12 to 13 days before screening.
                      Is this a good benchmark?

                        No, it's not a good benchmark....

                        ...But...

                        ....we're working our butts off trying to cope with the current rate of uploads. It would help a great deal if photographers were more selective with their uploads. Just looking at what is accepted and comparing their images to them before uploading would help.
                        We have a more exacting screening process than Airliners.net (the second largest database in the world...we're the largest) so it takes longer to screen plus we have screeners on holiday. Don't forget, we're all unpaid here, we don't get free monitors to screen on (Airliners screeners do), we have jobs, families and a life outside of aviation photography.
                        You could of course go to Airliners.net, get a turnaround in about 7-8 days....and MANY more rejections due to their sometimes rather odd ideas of unacceptable !
                        My acceptance rate here is around 90%. On Airliners it's around 50% ! and I don't think my images are THAT bad !!

                        Commenting on an issue that we are more than aware of doesn't really help screener morale.

                        Not making excuses, just stating facts.

                          Sorry to be off topic here, but I've been banned from a.net precisely because of that I tend to speak my mind sometimes and it gets the best of me... I was sick of having shots rejected there, yet accepted here. This is why I have a special place in my heart for jetphotos

                            You will always find that between a.net and jp you will have way different acceptance/reject ratios. I tend to be fair when I screen and think about my own photos that I have uploaded to this site.

                                I now try and send all my shots for pre-screening to avoid clogging up the queue, that way if it's given the go ahead, then all is well...only this week alone have had two shots given the all clear in pre-screening then rejected after submitting.

                                Seems to make void the pre-screening efforts, acceptance of a shot seems to be dependent on the screener and not the guidelines.

                                Confused
