Question

I need help understanding why my content was rejected and how I can fix the issue so I can successfully submit my work again.

Hello Adobe Stock Support,

I am a contributor who regularly submits creative content to Adobe Stock. Recently, some of my submissions have been rejected, and I would like to better understand the specific reasons behind these rejections.

I would appreciate it if you could explain what issues may have caused my content to be rejected, whether they are related to technical quality, image quality, metadata, similar content, or other Adobe Stock requirements.

I want to improve the quality of my submissions and make sure that my future content fully complies with Adobe Stock's Contributor Guidelines. If possible, please provide specific recommendations on what I should change or improve before submitting my work again.

Thank you for your time and assistance. I appreciate any guidance that can help me submit higher-quality content that meets Adobe Stock's requirements.

    What rejection reasons did Stock give you? It’s in the email you received.

    Post one or two full-sized assets here for us to critique.

    We can’t tell you much without seeing the rejected assets in question. You can upload a couple of them here. (5MB upload limit; make them as large as possible). If you want to include titles and keywords, that will help as well.
