Quality First
Alamy wants to ensure their collection is of the highest quality, so photographers must provide the best content. If you want to upload your own 360-degree stock images, first you’ll have to submit 3 images to pass quality control, even if you are a regular stock images contributor. Make sure your 360-degree stock images meet the above requirements. Once your initial batch is approved, you can start uploading more images.
