Hi!
I have been waiting for 8 days for the illustration to be approved. What do I need to do to get it right? There are 118 pieces waiting for approval. Thank you!

There's nothing you can do to get your assets reviewed any quicker. Patience!

100 pieces looks like generative AI. It's like in the amusement parks: waiting time from here on: more than a month. I would guess it's heading into two months. 

 

Photos: 6 days, probably because many AI submitters falsly use that category.

Illustrative Editorial: 2 days.

Vector: 1 day

Illustrations: one to two months. If there is no specific AI queue, classic artists get also hurt by the AI flood.

 

Especially for AI: check your assets for submission errors, like keywording, title wording and check your assets for obvious errors. You will spare moderator time and avoid a humiliating high refusal rate.

Just wait. The recent flood of AI submissions means that some submissions are taking months. Adobe has a fixed number of human reviewers, and they are having to review AI in great detail because there are so many generative unrealities & faults.
