Helpful IS Tools

Some handy dandy tools I recently found on iStock's forums to assist you with managing your IS portfolio.

iStockRoyalities 4.0
It didn't take long before I determined that I couldn't be successful in this business without utilizing this spreadsheeet. Import the Monthly Statistics CSV spreadsheet located on your stats page into iStockRoyalities 4.0, and it will calculate conservative performance projections through the year 2012. Want to know when you'll reach the next canister level based on past performance? Want to know when you'll reach two payouts in a month? Want to know exactly what you need to do to acheive those goals and more? It's all in the this spreadsheet!

Checkbot
A program that simplies the process of checking data for disambiguation, ratings, and images with keywords under review. Extremely helpful when disambiguating a large portfolio.

Keyword Suggestinator
Want help with your keywording? Upload an approved image into the Keyword Suggestinator, and iStock's members will offer their suggestions.

Thanks for those.

Just tried checkbot and found that one of my files was not disambobulated

I have tried the royalties spreadsheet before. Excellent for all stat freaks.

Tempting to stick my entire portfolio in the suggestinator

O, that is great! Thanks for posting this! Although i believe the checkbot is still sleeping... At least I keep getting that it needs to rest!

The suggestinator is great though!
