    Hi,
    I can see at other photographers when there is no property release, in big letters there is * only editorial use* . I choose “property release” NO, but can’t see this message. Also with the modelrelease, how can the customer know if there is, or not? I can’t see that information when I double click on an image?

    You have to edit some code. Jo Ann Snover posted how to do it some time ago:

    viewtopic.php?f=21&t=136&hilit=model+release

    And here:

    Hi Ivonne,

    if you like the way it looks on my sites replace line 47-94 of the content-image.php with this code:



    <?php
    $symbiostock_post_meta = 'ss_before_img_page_preview';
    do_action( 'ss_before_img_page_preview', $symbiostock_post_meta );
    ?>
    <a id="stock-image-preview" title="" rel="enclosure" type="image/jpeg" href=""> <img itemprop="contentURL image" class="photo img-responsive" alt="" src=""/>

    <?php
    $symbiostock_post_meta = 'ss_after_img_page_preview';
    do_action( 'ss_after_img_page_preview', $symbiostock_post_meta );
    ?>



    <?php
    $symbiostock_post_meta = 'ss_before_img_page_description';
    do_action( 'ss_before_img_page_description', $symbiostock_post_meta );
    ?>

    <?php the_content( __( 'Continue reading ', 'symbiostock' ) ); ?>

    <?php
    $symbiostock_post_meta = 'ss_after_img_page_description';
    do_action( 'ss_after_img_page_description', $symbiostock_post_meta );
    ?>

    '' ) ); ?>




    <?php //code "borrowed" from symbiostock_marketer() in marketer_functions.php
    // model release
    $id = get_the_ID();
    $model_released = get_post_meta( $id, 'symbiostock_model_released', 'N/A' );
    if ( empty( $model_released ) || $model_released == false ) {
    $model_released[ 0 ] = 'N/A';
    } //empty( $model_released ) || $model_released == false

    //property release
    $property_released = get_post_meta( $id, 'symbiostock_property_released', 'N/A' );
    if ( empty( $property_released ) || $property_released == false ) {
    $property_released[ 0 ] = 'N/A';
    } //empty( $property_released ) || $property_released == false
    ?>

    Model Released:

    <?php
    $symbiostock_post_meta = 'ss_before_img_page_author_box';
    do_action( 'ss_before_img_page_author_box', $symbiostock_post_meta );
    ?>

    <?php
    $symbiostock_post_meta = 'ss_after_img_page_author_box';
    do_action( 'ss_after_img_page_author_box', $symbiostock_post_meta );
    ?>


    <?php
    $symbiostock_post_meta = 'ss_bottom_img_page_preview_well';
    do_action( 'ss_bottom_img_page_preview_well' );
    ?>

    You find the content-image.php here: /public_html/wp-content/themes/symbiostock

    If you are not familiar with changing code you can mail your content-image.php to me (info AT flashstockphoto.com) and I’ll do the changes for you.

    I do it in a less programatic way. I don’t do a lot of editorial and so for the images where I want to put my “editorial” graphic, I put the following into the description of the image:

     
    Editorial Use Only

    I have previously made a small graphic that states that this image is editorial only – that is this bit: src=”http://www.backyardstockphotos.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Editorial_Use.gif”

    I link it through to my end user agreement in case anyone clicks on the icon itself.

    I can choose to add this or not depending on whether I feel I need to give a warning about usage.

    I’d like that Model Release and Property Release could be downloaded together with the image when a buyer purchases a released image. I hope Leo will make this feature soon.

    I do not think you do want to send this information to a buyer unless a legal problem arises where it is required.. Your models/property owners might not be very happy if you give their personal details out to people they do not know without their explicit permission.

    You really want to give a MR or PR with all the private details to an image buyer? I don’t think this is a good idea and would never ever do that.

    Edit: Ooops, Christine was faster 🙂

    I don’t understand what is wrong when I already do this through the stock agencies. All the stock agencies where I sell photos have my model and property releases and each time a client downloads a photo downloads the release. I explain this to my models before to take photos. This means that you don’t sell your images through other stock agencies? Because if you do they oblige you to upload the release too, there’s nothing strange, otherwise they will not accept your photos.

    You send copies of the releases to the agencies to prove you have them, they do not send them to clients

    That’s right, agencies want to make sure that you have all the rights which are necessary to sell an image but they don’t give the releases to clients (just the information whether an image is released or not).

    Are we sure? I was convinced they give the releases. In this case I am wrong.

    Once I bought an image from Shutterstock … I just got the image (with a person), but no Model Release.
    And I’m sure that if all my images with models sold on agencies had been sold with Model Release there would have been more than one stupid buyer contacting a model … and the model would have contacted me and asked why I give away her contact information.

    What is the advantage of having such info under the image?
    Is it just to show the buyer that you’ve the legal documents/authorizations from that image, so the buyer can use it with safety?
