Question

I licensed a jpeg on accident. Description mentioned PNG. I opened it up and looked at the file to see if I could do anything with it, but honestly... it's just a jpeg.

 

Why is Adobe selling jpegs? What can you do with a jpeg that looks like THAT, with all the ridiculous DRM?? It precludes me how anyone can be allowed to sell a product on Adobe in such useless condition???

To ease the checking, you should post a link to the asset: https://stock.adobe.com/uk/images/christmas-background-powder-dust-light-png-magic-shining-gold-dust-fine-shiny-dust-bokeh-particles-fall-off-slightly-fantastic-shimmer-effect-vector-illustrator/407479770

 

 

Clearly, this asset is useless, and the description does not match-up with the file format. The asset claims to be PNG and vector at the same time, which is impossible.

 

Let's see what @Contributor1 says.

 

Other assets of the same author show the same erroneous and misleading title, but effectively are vector assets. The author should cure his titles.

    What do you mean by "ridiculous DRM" and "useless condition"? JPEG seems a perfectly normal format - however the description is a lie, and the image should be corrected or removed.  There is no DRM on JPEGs. Your screen shot shows the preview, not the licensed image.

      Useless because I literally can't do anything with this file. There are no layers. No transparency. There is no content. I can get the same product just by clicking and saving the preview. I wasn't sure if I could share the licensed image here.
