Uploading vector to Shutterstock may be confusing to newcomers because Shutterstock does not coupled the vector and JPEG together to sell. You need to upload both of them separately so that both your vector and JPEG version are available for sale.
First, prepare the below 3 files.
- JPEG in 2800pixels x 2800pixels. This is for the JPEG version. You are advised not to save this JPEG in a much bigger resolution because your illustration will look jagged and distorted when you view it in 100%, thus the reviewer will most likely reject it. So saving it in 2800pixels x 2800pixels is sufficient.
- Vector file saved in EPS8 or EPS10.
- JPEG in 4000pixels x 4000pixels. This will be used to generate the preview for the vector file above. It is OK to save this file in a much smaller dimension, however, some agency like Fotolia will need this JPEG to be this big.
Go to Upload Content > Upload Images > via HTTP. Upload your 3 files accordingly. Please take not that the vector file and JPEG for preview MUST BE IN THE SAME NAME. Press submit files when you are ready.
Fill up the this page like the below. A few things that you should take notes are:
- The title is best to be short and precise. Do not spam this section or you may get warning.
- It is best to have as many keywords as possible, but make sure they are all relevant.
- Choose two categories.
- Illust/Clip-Art must be checked as Yes for both the Vector and JPEG version.
- Although Shutterstock will not ask you for the photo (or sketches) you used to trace or refer when you create the illustration, but make sure you keep the original photo for this in case there is a dispute in future. REMEMBER, the photo that you used to trace or refer must be owned by you 100% or your account will be shut down.
Submit for review and you are done. Wait about 1 week for them to get approve :)
Good luck.
