    Email Link to Completed File - How Long?

    Hello everyone. I tried two separate projects yesterday, and they stalled at 2% and 5% for at least an hour each. I used the email option on both, but its been 24 hours or more with no results. Both projects used a 3 megapixel camera and had less than ten images each. I am writing a series of blog post about my Project Photofly experience, and am stuck in the starting gate.

     

    Is it normal to take this long?

    Hello,

     

     

    In a normal situation a 10 images project should be processed in less than 10 minutes (even faster). Could you try again please ?

    Hello,

     

    It seems that you posted 16 projects so far:

    - 11 were completed.

    - 5 were not.

     

    On the 5 that were in "error", a few of them were posted at a time when we had an issue with the server, which has been solved since then. May be that on a few others, some could not be stitched because the submitted photos do not floow the shooting guidelines (not enough overlap  or not enough texture on the subject for example). Our recommandaiton is that you re-submit these projects now that the server is up and running, and that you follow our shooting guidelines as published on:

    Thanlks for using Project Photofly.

    Sorry for the late reply, but I was expecting an email when someone replied, and haven’t received one. Things seem to work fine now. Thank you for your responses.
