Adobe Stock really needs to implement a Ratings System so WE can provide feedback on Bad Stock Images, so others can avoid downloading the same file. The Ratings Systems a simple 5 star system with comments section would serve to help the monthly subscribers, but also be a warning to content providers that you can't just upload pure crap. I run across so many vectors that once you download and open the file you can tell it was nothing more than an image conversion from something already on the web. We download vectors from Stock assuming it will be an original. AI has only made things worse, many files are not at print resolution and should be labeled as such or at least with ratings I could read the reviews. There is no way Adobe can monitor the quality of the ever growing library, we should have a way to help police the quality. Ratings are such a common things, not sure why you have not implemented it already.

Sorry, but during submission, each asset gets checked. The issue here is that the human moderators don't do their job all the time. That's why a lot of bad quality AI assets are in the database. However, the contributor side starts to complain about the "massive" rejections. So Adobe is reacting.

A rating system is generally a bad idea, for multiple reasons. A report button, however would be great.

I agree, a report button is definitely needed. I just downloaded vector art that looked good on screen but was completely useless once opened in Illustrator.

If the file is labeled as being in Illustrator format but actually contains only placed raster data, please post the details—including the asset number—to the community or contact support.
If you mean that changing the colors is difficult because the paths were created using AI or an auto-trace function, this does not violate posting rules, so the item cannot be returned.
