I believe our customer support got back to you re: your questions, but for the benefit of other readers... - StockShots have the typical 15-20 minute delay. - We do not modify the destination URL. So if your links contain Amazon affiliate info, it will be passed along when the user clicks through. - Currently we do not support selectively turning on/off specific shots via the head javascript snippet. You can achieve the desired effect by choosing the "selective" implementation described in <a href="http://www.snap.com/about/shots_faq.php#12">Snap Shots FAQ</a>... it just takes a little more work on your end. Without making any guarantees, I will bring your request to the product team to see if we can implement support for an "easier" way to selectively opt in/out of specific Shots. At the end of the day, it's all a balance between ease-of-use and usefulness... Cheers. – Erik Wingren Snap UX Research erik[@]snap[.]com Thanks for the mention and review.
