Hello,

 

I started with Adobe Stock and uploaded a few of my own captured and processed Astrophotography images. But Adobe rejetced it without a specific reason. Just a link to some guidelines, which doesn't help or explain the reason.

Any Idea what could be wrong with the images? one example attached. It's an Image with HOO-Integration

Copyright is written at the bottom right. It's only in this example and not in the uploaded photo?

Before you submit anything, you must read the Stock Contributor User Guide carefully.  It's required reading for every Contributor.

Hello,

There could be a problem with your keywords. You might have inadvertently used a word which could be  proctected by copyright. 

 So, I suggest to look at them more closely.

It looks like a good photo. But is sk2024 present in all rejected photos? If so, the writing may be the cause.

There's always a stated reason for rejection. Quality & Technical issues are most common.

 

Adobe Stock customers are looking for commercial-ready photographs to use in professional projects.  Sharp focus, vibrant color, good composition & details, etc...

 

Also compare your work with current Stock inventory to see what they've accepted so far.

Hope that helps.

Hello Nancy, 

thx for the reply. 

Adobe mentioned 3 abstract reasons:

"Possible causes:

– Non-compliant use of other artists’ names.

– Undeclared generative AI content.

– The content does not comply with general guidelines."

I can exclude the first 2 and the 3rd sound like a general and not tengble reason, which makes it difficult to improve.
