Help, why were my PNGs rejected?

But my last request to support ended with the deletion of files that flashed in the request. For some reason, instead of reading the question, the support decided that I was asking to check the files, they checked them and deleted them. As a result, my top work was deleted, and the question was actually a question about styles, not about checking. In general, this is of course a different story.

I suppose you should reconsider this answer, as it does not make much sense. At least not in the context of your initial question and my answer.

There are no such problems with JPG

"But otherwise correct assets?"

No. What I’m thinking at this time is that AI PNG illustrations, much like early acceptances of AI assets with 6 fingers and the like, have been getting a pass when it comes to illustrations with errors, since by their nature they are illustrations and therefore aren’t going to be absolutely perfect. Just like, “Well, they’re AI, and AI inherently makes mistakes, so I guess it’s acceptable.” Am I making sense? It just seems there have been more posts lately from contributors of PNG illustrations wondering why their assets started being rejected “all of a sudden,” compared to previous submissions that quite possibly had similar issues. So I’m not just talking about cut out issues, but actual content as well.

Thank you, I always thought that illustrations are less picky about textures, etc., since they are not photographs, but apparently I was wrong.

Your asset exposes plenty of artefacts that are typical for JPEG compression issues. Those are not acceptable, even for illustrations.
