Dear All,
Is there an efficient workflow - way that someone came up with, that could recomend to manage exports for stock site photography easily?
The main problem, is that if you upload 10 images for instance, to 3 different sites you most propably will face different accepted images and different rejected from each site.
Then you have to modify adjustments to reupload the rejected images for a second try, or even a third one.
And this is the exact point where the problem occures.
There must be an efficient way to have in different folders (or smart albums or whatever) the same images with different status (rejected or accepted for instance, or red or green or whatever) and at the same time those images with differenet settings (those you had to make in order to get images accepted) keep also in mind that the images may also have different keywords aswell (in case an image gets rejected due to keywording).
Its important to mention that in the end, the folders must match the real status of the images at the stocksite submitted, regarding state (accepted or not) and of course settings.(its important in the end to know that in site ''A'' you have exactly those images and in site ''B'' the others, and so on.)
Its more than sure that those 3 different folders (or smart albums or whatever) will eventually have the same images, but most of them will have different status, settings and keywords.
The only way i found to manage it, is by creating export folders using virtual copies at the publish services section of LR. Note that for publish services i used my hard drive.
But the drawbacks of this way are:
1. You double - triple (depending the stock site number) files (at least they are virtual ones)
2. When an image is rejected from a stock site and you mark the coresponding image as ''marked for republish'' even thow in lr it is clear which files were rejected and should be edited and republished, in the export folder you cant track them, you must export to a new folder evry time creating double - triple jpg files. I think it would be better if LR could sync automaticaly the folder showing somehow images marked for repubplish.
Sorry for long post, but how could it be smaller???? 
Thanks in advanced.
