About wasting time!

Never again i'll try uploading photos here at P5.
The same shots which are well accepted at 500px for licensing (and those guys are really strict in what they accept and what not) and got my most favs are called here by an curator "quality of this image is too low!" while another one before saw no problems with shots of the same set which are totally similar in quality.
Now a complete upload batch is rejected, not only some of the shots. Photo uploading seems still like lottery here, a reason why i didn't try it again since the beginning of photo acceptance here. :(
Don't understand what's going up (as i'm not a stupid beginner who makes photos with his handy).

Strange P5 accept lot of low quality, shady video but photos are so strict. In fact, they should adopted Alamy policy to take all kind of pictures as long as its keywords are correct. Alamy sells LOTs of strange editorial pictures. And pictures is very small compare to video.

I know it's frustrating; judgment criteria seem to be left too much to subjectivity rather than well-defined parameters. Some pictures of mine that got accepted on Shutterstock (and they're not easy) got refused by Pond 5.

If you wnat to make to submission process a bit less painful have a look at this

You are selling your course here, my friend.

Is there a method for resubmission where a different curator uses their judgement to balance things out?
