Question

9 PNG get rejected because quality isseu

Hi everyone.

i’m newbie in here, so maybe i don’t know what the problem.

i draw this art in procreate and save this artwork with PNG DDI 300 but still get rejected because quality issues.

 

I’ve attached a few examples here so you can get a better idea of what I submitted. If anyone has experience with this or can help point out what might be wrong - whether it's technical, design-related, or formatting - I’d really appreciate it!

    Es liegt daran, das Spiegelei ist hier nichts Neues und man hat bereits 50000 Spiegeleier im Portfolio und das beste, wenn man dann ein Spiegelei zum kaufen sucht, dann findet man keines oder es werden Zitronen angezeigt. :)

    The primary reason for rejection of PNG assets is edge cutout issues. Zoom in and carefully inspect and you’ll find those errors. Sometimes it becomes quite apparent when you add them to a black background.

    Stock is not a free website where anything you make is accepted.  Stock Contributors need talent and skills to create sophisticated artwork that’s ready for commercial use in print, digital & merchandise. 

     

    Closely examine your work at 100-300% magnification. 

     

    Compare your best work with what Stock is selling. As a customer, would you pay money for this?  And what would you use it for commercially? 

     

    This is what you’re competing with:

    Hope that helps.

    Maybe the metadata did not match the image. For example. 

    1.Title: Illustration of sunny-side up egg / Drawing of sunny-side up egg (+ relevant keywords) - High change to get rejected because it look worse than what already available on Adobe Stock.

    2.Title: Whimsical illustration of sunny-side up egg / Kids drawing of sunny-side up egg. (+ relevant keywords) - May have higher changes to be accepted.

    Other example metadata: Kids-style drawing.., Messy hand-drawn..., and etc..

     

    This is just my opinion. 😊

    If the coloring is sloppy—for example, if it goes outside the lines—it may be rejected.

    Probably too abstract for Adobe’s requirements.
