    It's a bit late in the season for Halloween themes. 

    IMO, it's too dark and lacks sufficient detail for commercial use.

    I assume you did this with Generative AI?

    What was the rejection reason? Quality issues?

     

    • You posted here a PNG file. PNG files are required to have a transparent background.
    • You have artefacts:

       

    • You have missing contrasts.
    • You have missing blacks and whites (related to the contrasts claim):

      Ok thank you for the feedback. Ill look into giving the png a transparent backround and ill be more critical of my artifacting. I dont understand the last part though about the missing black and whites relating to contrast. 

      Ill be honest im new to this but i intentionally made the image to exclude monochrome(If i understand correctly.)

      I appreciate the feedback

      If you look at the histogram, the histogram is separated into different regions. You have the blacks (very dark tones) to the left, then come the shadows, then comes the exposure, then come the highlights, then come the whites. For a well exposed picture, all parts of that spectrum need to be served with some presence. This allows the buyer a maximum of editing possibilities. If you cut off the blacks and the whites, you are creating a flat image that has no contrast. https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/viewing-histograms-pixel-values.html
