    As an unpaid forum volunteer, I don’t download assets from untrusted sources for security reasons. Sorry. 

    If you want my feedback, you’ll need to post 1 or 2 images here. The forum size limit is 5MB.

     

    Use Photoshop’s File > Export > Export As panel to reduce file size as needed for the web forum.

     

    Thanks.

    I don’t see any photos to critique here. 

    Post one or two here, along with the refusal reason(s).

    It should also be noted that many state and federal parks require a permit for images taken for commercial use. While this generally applies to large crews taking video or photographs, it appears Adobe will err on the side of caution in such cases when using assets obtained for commercial purposes.

    You didn’t say on Google Drive what images were rejected (unless I overlooked something), but this one would have required a model release if not provided.

    Always check your histogram.

    You must obtain a model release for any image in which a person's face is recognizable.
    If the sign has text or a logo on it, it will be rejected due to IP issues.

    You cannot view the image using only the rejected asset ID.
    If you wish to check the reason for the rejection with the community, please post both the rejection reason and the image you actually submitted.

    1. Convert the image to a format like WebP to avoid quality loss before posting.
    2. Use an external storage service, such as Google Drive.

    Please use whichever method you find easier for posting.
