Amazon S3

Hello,
I've setup an S3 account over amazon to host my photographs, but Sytist won't upload the images. Over amazon, i've created the bucket, got both of the keys and entered them over Sytist and setup the endpoint (s3-us-east-2.amazonaws.com) as per the table on one of the links (the server is on Ohio US, east).
When I upload the images, a windows pops up stating not to close it, and after that it just closes (like the transfer was successful) but the image does not appear over S3.
clicking on the uploaded sessions over "all photos" on Sytist, it show the image, but when clicking on the source the address is over my hosting site.
Do you know what might be wrong?
Thanks
Javier

Create a new bucket in your Amazon S3 account. When selecting the region, refer to this page and select a region that supports Signature Version 2:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#s3_region

The right column on that page will show you which regions support Signature Version 2.

Also when creating the bucket I believe in the third step, under "Manage public permissions" select "Grant public read access to this bucket". Everything else should be fine with the default settings.

Then update your settings in Sytist (Settings -> Photo Settings) with the new bucket name.

If we are granting public access to the bucket, what's stopping clients from avoiding the website and just going and stealing images from the bucket?

Public means they are accessible on your website. Your customers can't just get the photos from the bucket. Plus the photo file names have hashes in them and would be impossible to guess.
