beginners guides Notes: Unless specified the password is your normal user password for each site. Istockphoto is the only major site not to offer FTP upload. It's common for startup sites and 'beta' sites which are being developed not to offer FTP upload, and many users wait until FTP is available before they submit their images considering FTP access to be a mark of the seriousness / quality of a microstock agency.
