Hi,

I have two questions regarding the adding of images. Do you get credit for adding
additional images? I added a few but they do not show up in my contributions
or the bottom of the item page although they are included now.

Can you see rejected image submissions? I added images but it seems like they
were rejected and I can not find them anymore. I dont know why or what was rejected.

I think only the image used as the first image for the small and large images
gets the credit on the part page. However, on the colour images page, everyone
that uplaoded the alternative colours gets credit, such as here:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogColors.asp?itemType=P&itemNo=3001&v=2

I don't think they contact or tell you if an image is rejected, or tell you
why.

Additional images do not receive any credits.


  Can you see rejected image submissions?


No.

I do not believe any images from you were rejected.

You can see what you have still pending on the Add or Change page or on the Approval
Pending Overview

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogPend.asp

Additional images are an important resource for our Catalog even though there
are no visible credit for them.

Are you sure you don't know what images you submitted? It seems to me that
you could go to the Catalog item in question, navigate to the Large Images, and
see what's there.

Thanks,
~Jen

You can see what you have submitted while it is pending, but once the submission
of an additional image is processed I dont have an option to see it anymore in
an overview. I cant see if it was added or rejected and only can look at the
item page by myself out of memory. If you add a lot of items you may not remeber
all and therefore can not check if it was added.

Thank you from another member, for your efforts to better the catalog we all
use. It's actually appreciated by many, albeit anonymous members. As to attributions:
have you checked your "My Activity Overview"

As was already stated here, images that are accepted as Additional images do
not trigger Catalog credit. (As much as they are appreciated and, in terms of
comparison images, essential.)

Good for you...

I'm simply expressing my personal appreciation to the member, which has little
to do with you or others laying claim to the "catalog" turf

I am not laying claim or whatever. I am trying to explain that he isn't going
to find new image credit, or any image credit for that matter, on that page.

Image credits are viewable on the Catalog detail page for the main image, on
the Color Images pages for the small images, and collectively on the Contributions
page. However, anything accepted as an Additional image is not counted.

As it seems many members agree that additional images are very important for
the catalog, therefore I started a suggestion to acknowledge such submission.
Giving credit to contributors could encourage more members to add additional
images benefiting us all. If you like this idea you can support it here with
your vote: https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1502461

Yes, but as the others pointed out in this overview additional images do not
show up in the statistics. Actually I wrote about the "My activity" overview
in this suggestions post: https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1500250 to
bring it back, so you dont have to always use the link.
