Thank you for your answers, that means no photos in underwear.    By @EvgenyErmakov01 Your assets need to be "child safe". If underwear means e(r)otic* posing in revealing underwear, you should not submit. If underwear means bikini-like clothing in non suggestive posing, it may pass. You need to check that out. If you want to be on the safe side, stay conservative.   *Just to work around the "bad words dictionary".  ... View more

It's your account's assumed location that is determining this. And that location gets fixed by your credit card.

Thank you in advance. Yes, everyone can make it, but what I emphasize here is the words. Just like photos, people can also take photos. By @Deris_Septian6844 You.did not understand: there is no added value to this. Yes, everyone can take a picture, but if you are looking for a mountain picture, you would need to travel to the mountains, and if you would need a group of students, you would need to hire models, organizing the shoot, and if it is an outside summer shoot and you are in winter time, you need to travel, where currently they have sun and good weather. If you want to do your "wordings" in this style or in an other, you just do it. ... View more

Composition is important, but here you have more basic issues. The noise is probably what caught the moderator's eye first. It did with my eye. But you need to get everything rtight before you should submit, because every error will trigger a refusal. There is not the situation, where you can say, that you fixed the noise, and not other issues, and the asset passes. ... View more

actually I use a mobile phone, maybe that influences it too. By @Launghas The mobile phone does not have a DOF, due to physical limitations. So most of the picture is in focus (not always sharp, but in focus). Then you have the phone software that chimes in, and simulates a decent DOF. But they do a terrible job in doing so. It looks nice on your phone screen and that's it.    The picture you took is really demanding and to get this as it should, you would need a bigger sensor and better lenses. Phones take good pictures only when the light is perfect. Counter light as in sunset/sunrise situations is not perfect, and it stresses even good sensors with the best lenses. And you need to switch of all those fancy filters that (not realy) "enhance" the picture. ... View more

For your first: 1) Blurry, that does not exactly match the plane. 2) Get rid of that hair that is poorly blended with the background. 3) Eye cover and eyelashes are in two different positions. 4) Partially missing eyeleashes, eyeleaches are poorly blended into the background. 5) Is that a rim light or a sharpening artefact? In addition: you need to replace the pupils, they are poorly rendered.   For your second: the (monstrous) shoulder has been named, the eyes could be better rendered and the ear has been chopped in parts:  The AI is still bad in continuing contours after an object gets partially covered by a foreground object (here the hair).   For your third: You should submit those as two separate assets. (A Massai wedding in snowy weather looks quite exotic, but that's not a refusal reason!). You really need to check the eyes as they are not good in all your pictures so far. The background does not blend in at the marked space. As always with quite complicated patterns, they are not as detailed as they should be.  In the second part, besides some out of focus issues, you also have a problem with the perspective that does not match what I would expect. the mouth looks like pasted into the picture (which is probably what the AI did).     Indeed, the earrings do not match, but that could also be by design or perspective.   Fourth picture:  Eyes:  Ears with the same issue than your second picture (what made @daniellei4510 state the elfen ears!) And I think the AI has no clue what this should be: The woollen scarf has some pattern flaws, but is amazingly good. However, the AI has made a cutout error with the fir tree here:     Your last image: That hand hurts! and that twice: the perspective is wrong, and the joints are wrong.  1) Bad shape. 2) Hair or no hair. 3) are the lights behind the hair as suggested above, in the hair or in front of the hair? The AI has obviously no clue about this. You have your usual issues with the eyes (2) and the perspective (nose, 1) (1) Those lights are odd (2) Symetric objects are quite a challenge for AI. Check also the odd fasteners.   Now, if you check your assets, you may find that they contain many more errors, but getting the right moderator, the assets could also pass. If a potential customer then complains about the bad quality or simply accepts the asset is then like rolling the dices.  ... View more

(...) it is not advisable to submit several images in one asset. (...) By @RALPH_L I may disagree here.

And to be sure, as a buyer, I would expect this to be a PNG file or a vector file. ... View more

Why did I see this exactly same question with the same screenshot from a different user before? If you are using different IDs, do not ask the same question multiple times, even with different IDs. We may consider this a kind of forum spamming, and we may get one or all of your IDs banned from posting here. (This is a warning and I have normally a good memory of the assets and posts I see here!)   If you are a different user, I could consider this as a preparation for spamming links here. That would get you banned too.  ... View more

Most credit cards in Egypt do not work on PayPal, By @Worker404 Unfortunately for you, you live in a reagion, where the government needed to takle action to limit the flight of capital. That's makes the lives of the people more complicated. Canada as also the European countries and the USA do have free circulation of capital.

There doesn't have to be anything big or dark about it. Rather more present, like the thin grid one Alamy used to have was I imagine pretty effective to deter any steal. The current one is way too spaced out and if you have a picture with white background it does pretty much nothing. And the previews aren't that small in the first place. So picture for free... By @pavel_0024 The copyright proof maner to handle this: do not contribute. It's like preventing stealing in shops: keep the doors closed.   Don't be a fool: The little hobby designer doing a brochure for the local club won't make you lose money. The professional designer doing a campaign for a big or even small company cannot afford to use unlicensed assets. The ones that need to get educated are the multiple engineers and commercials doing their own (awfully designed) powerpoint presentations. And those use the pictures with the watermark still embedded. I was in enough such presentations, and I've modified enough such presentations. And I need to disapoint you: I was in most cases able to simply exchange the unlicensed assets with own and more appropriate assets. No money to make. ... View more
