Question

Estimated time for submitted photos to get uploaded to Adobe Stock Contributors

Hello there. 

It has been 11 days since I submitted my first photos to my Adobe Stock account as a contributor and they still remain in review without seeing any decision. As a new contributor just wondering if it is normal that takes that long or there is something wrong on my account. Which is the correct time frame for the regular photo posting tasks, as in my opinion I believe more than 10 days is too much.

Please, any tip, recomendation or decision about this matter will be very helpful to me.

Kind Regards!

    On average, Photos & Vector Graphics are reviewed in 5  - 15 business days.
    Illustrations & Generative AI could take 1 - 3 months due to an immense backlog of AI submissions.
    For faster turnarounds, submit fewer generative AI. Focus on quality instead of quantity. 😉

    I can see in my profile a kind of warning pop up in a yellow square that says: "If you submit Generative AI images you must select the checkbox".

    But I only uploaded photographs taken by me. No AI involved

    Photos take 5  - 15 business days. That's assuming you did everything right.

    If you neglected to include signed property or model releases, it could take longer.

    Did you submit photographs or Generative AI assets? Photos are still being reviewed within 5-7 days; however there is such a huge backlog of Generative AI assets that review is taking 1-2 months. There's nothing you can do to hasten the process.
