Hey, so I'm uploading images in adobe stock for a long time. at first my content rejection was very low but suddenly for recent few weeks i'm having extreme amount of rejections. It discouraged me a lot and i did not expect this from adobe stock. It took a long time and good amount of hard work to process those images. can you inform me what's the issue here? There are lots of contributor who has got high amount of approval even though their images and files had some issues. I just a fair reason and fair solution that's all.

Perhaps it is the case that many are called, but few are chosen. I dare say that stock now has enough images that would sink the Titanic twice over! It could be a way to reduce the number of incoming images by increasing the rejections.

Perhaps we were lulled into believing our images were top notch. Now that there is an oversupply, Adobe can be extremely picky!

I thought maybe they just wanted to clear the backlog; however if that were the case my 30 images that have been waiting for 1-10 months should have been reviewed by now. If they wanted to slow down the submissions they could simply reduce the submission limit for all accounts to 50 or even less. Spammers are still spamming, uploading thousands at a time. Perhaps they've implemented some new kind of automation which has gone awry. The lack of information regarding this situation is frustrating.

Thumbs up to a stricter limit on the number of submissions.

Hi @Jack34515513i6vv ,

Some of us who have been submitting photographs over several years that were getting more than average approval and files have been selling are now getting up to 100% refusals. It's hard to say what is going on, if it's a case that they are scaling down on photos or their standard has reached AI perfection.

Regards

Read some of the other recent posts in this forum. Many of us are experiencing increased rejections. Adobe has not offered an explanation. I'm holding off on submitting any more assets until the situation improves.

A large number of contributors are experiencing this issue. Some are holding off from submitting anything further, and some are at least slowing down considerably. You are not alone.
