Image rejected for 'quality issues'?

Hi ​@graphicswitheva 

The edges are not sharp and smooth when zoomed.

Maybe, but not necessarily. The asset in the link you provided has more identifiable objects than just a bunch of squares a circles, which makes it more valuable to a potential buyer. The example here might be too abstract in comparison.

Yes, I think so.

Hey ​@graphicswitheva 

The image is quiet busy. My eye doesn’t really have any where to rest. There is no real focal point.

The fx add nothing of value to your image. If anything, stippling makes it less commercially appealing to buyers who want to print this.

It’a usually best not to use filters to generate effects. Adobe generally prefers to let the buyer add them if desired.

That could be one reason. The moderator may have interpreted it as excessive grain. But it’s also overexposed. Check your histogram.
