Can I use another person titles for stock photo?

Hi, can I use another image title for my images?

Is that legal?


Thank you.

No, that is not legal, except if the title is something very standard: “Girl with a flower in her hair.” Anyhow, you need to be creative if you want to stand out.

Duplicate titles could be flagged as duplicate content. You don't want that.

Be original.  Use your own titles to facilitate better search results so customers can find your content.

Hi @Maya_Alla8220 ,

You can use the same title for multiple of your own assets. However, you are not allowed to copy another Adobe contributor metadata for your assets. In any case, your title should be describing the asset you are preparing to submit. So, in this context, I do not understand why you would be asking about using another persons asset title, except you are thinking that since I have the title, "Mango" for my mango image, if you can use the word "Mango" for your mango image. In a case like this it would be fine, but better if you say what kind of mango it is. For example "Ripe Mango", "Red Mango", "Green Mango", "Unripe Mango", "Large Mango", "East Indian Mango" etc, .Your title should describe your asset and has nothing to do with another person's asset. Hence you should not be looking at another person's asset to find title for yours.

But why? You can't come up with your own titles?
