Pictures added

markim

Hi!

I am very very new to brickowl and saw the anouncement about adding pictures to the catalog.
Does anyone know how quick they get approved? I have like 800 items that would like a picture, but i have only submitted 3 (like the one i added here) to check if the quality of my pictures will be good enough to be submitted

Looking forward to do some more if my quality is okey!

Thanks for your answers!

2 days maximum in my experience. A lot quicker normally though.

You won't get notification of approval, only if it's rejected (and you'll be given a reason why). My advice from your picture above is to crop in a lot tighter - either do this beforehand or there is a crop box when you submit.

markim

i did crop it when submitting, but not when i added it to the forum post. Thanks you all!

And without looking at the item in the catalog to see if your picture is there you should see the number of lots that are missing a picture going down at

2 weeks ago I did a large run, it is quite nice to see the number going down from 125 to 44

Nice! You get catalog points too, which are awesome (e.g., get featured on the home page, prizes, free fees, etc.).

Yeah i saw that BasKrie. I have 750 open ones now.... whoops. Lots to do i guess. I also have quite a few items that i can sell on BL but cant sell here. (400 or so) Can i add them to the catalog somehow?

Vosblokjes

Yes you can add items to the catalog (please do so).
