Post Screeening: General question

Wed Jul 12, 2017 2:03 pm

Alright.
I got my first submission to this website screened and it was rejected ( as expected !) I am trying to decipher what that means. Here is what the rejection message said

SCREENER DECISION:
Rejected
Info Personal Message High in Frame

I get the high in frame part. I will measure the location of aircraft in my framing once again.
What does 'info' and 'personal message' mean? Am I missing info ? Where should I expect to see personal message?

Also, I wish I can embed the photo in question for you all to see. How should I go about doing that?

I think I figured how to embed the image using photoid.
Here is the image in question.
The rejection is for info,personal message and high in frame

Embedding photos does not work for rejected photos :)

As for the rejection reasons:
- Perhaps slightly high, but really not that bad.
- "Personal Message" means that the screener left you a personal message. Those messages can be seen in the rejection E-mail. In this case, the screener said: "Welcome to Airliners.net. This picture is a little bit too high in frame, "builder" field is not applicable.".
- The info rejection relates to the builder field. This is not applicable for Boeing aircraft as per the help texts on the upload page. However, I personally don't reject for that anymore, since people don't seem to learn and it saves me a shitload of extra work.

Understood! Thanks for the explanation, Kas.

I will fix the issues later and re-submit. Do the resubmitted photos go back in the queue or do they get looked at sooner?

Unfortunately they always go to the back of the queue, unless it's a photo that qualifies for priority screening.

I got my first photo accepted on this site YAY!! I am very excited !

While comparing the photo on site, I thaught the colors looked pale. What could it be the reason?
Here is the side-by side of submitted vs hosted image. Is this normal ?

Looked a bit pale to me as well when I saw it yesterday. Strangely enough, the thumbnail appeared to be much better (or I was seeing things, that could also happen). Make sure to always save your images in the sRGB space color, as that's the one that web browsers "understand".

Cheers,

M

Yes, I saw the shot yesterday as well and while the thumbnail looks indeed normal, the large version has a strange purple / reddish colour cast.

I would recommend a reupload with sRGB. Just go to your Photographer's Corner, accepted shots and the you can re-upload and get the photo exchanged.

Congrats! Looking forward to more :)
As the above posters have both mentioned, it's likely the color profile (AdobeRGB vs. sRGB). You need the latter.

Also, a plug is in order for this occasion:
