EB Forum

Looking forward to trying this out…
I have been unable to add posters on EB.
It kept telling me my entity was too large.

How long do the approvals generally take? I added one around a week ago (IIRC), but still don't see it.
And I don't know if it's just still in the queue, or didn't upload.

anywhere from one day to one month. depends who is approving and how much time the volunteer has. unknown stuff generally takes longer than known artists. easier to verify.

Curious if there is any way to expedite submission approval for new art.

Been getting this question a lot and figured I’d post here, too:

The main reason art gets stuck in the queue is that it is missing information, including a release date. Our approval queue orders submissions in two ways. Submissions that have a release date (e.g. 2022-03-25) are ordered at the top, by release date, with the most recent releases ones first. The remaining submissions (those w/no release date) are ordered below it, in the order they are submitted. An entry with a 2010 release date will always appear before an entry with no release date—even if that entry with no release date was added a week ago.

The best way to expedite approval of an art entry is to take the time to follow the instructions and enter all of the information about it before you submit. Take a few minutes to find the release date (Artist’s IG is usually a good place to start), look up the run # (eBay?), enter the venue for gig prints (they are usually already an option in the database), and always check that your art title is in the proper format (Band City YR Artist, or Art Name YR Artist), which helps us prevent adding duplicates. If you submit a poster as “Star Wars” without the YR or Artist in the title line, and with no release date, it’ll always take longer to approve than if you had submitted it with all of the information in the first place.

Another issue we run into is multiple submissions for variants. When we get separate new art entries for those variants, it slows down the approval process. If a poster has several foil variants, for example, that can be noted in the “notes” field of one individual art entry (e.g. foil x/50 also sold at the show for $100). These should not be several new art submissions. If you need to add a printing to a pre-existing art entry, you should post in the Entry Corrections thread, not submit an entirely new art listing.

I hope this helps clear some things up. Our queue still has plenty in it to approve, but every art submission that was submitted with a release date has been approved as of now.

Thank you, sir!

Of course I know how!

Y ur fudge languishing then.

I don’t know, thus my query about the handie. It wasn’t a new release or the latest zomg movie commission. All of the relevant info was input, though I did not enter the release date as it’s a promoter poster, so it wasn’t released per se. I entered the concert date, but not the release date. But it’s been approved and my long ordeal is over.

What is the best or recommended way to submit an entry with multiple variants? The reason I am asking is because there does not appear to be a way to add multiple images for each variant with one submission. Should I enter a submission for the regular version with all the variants in the notes, then once approved, add the additional images of the variants? Or enter separate submissions for each variant? A mod's post above indicates that the single submission method is better, but I wanted confirmation as well as the best way to add the images for each variant.

Single submission please. Then after it is approved, you can add in the images to the listing and post in the EB Entry Corrections thread to have the thumbnail images updated.
