Images rejected

Hi Sam,

I looked at your profile and also at the rejected files. I observe several similarity on your profile and almost 100 files that are similar to those that were rejected.

Similar is considered files that are close to or exact replica of another in your profile. You are allowed up to six similar as long as each file has significantly different element or orientation. Color should not be a factor to determine the difference. For example four of the following should not have been accepted:

You needed only one file and the customer makes color changes to suit his needs.

You have almost 100 files that are similar to the ones rejected. That is far more than the allowed six. When the customer clicks on one of those that was accepted a strip of other picture in the series appears. They are all looking alike.

When the customer clicks on the "See more", this is what turns up.

Almost a page of what's similar files. For some customers this is confusion, don't know which to chose and they'll move on to diversity. 

Something like this:

Pay attention to the strip below the clicked file. Look at the diversity.

And this:

If you observe, it's only two similar and if you observe the center they are both significantly different. 

That is the level of diversity that is going to earn you cash. When the customer clicks on each diversified file it's likely for him to see new files that are different as in this case

This will not happen when you have too many of one file. The customer will get just more of the same thing. The whole idea is to keep the customer on your page as long as possible. That is good for your algorithm and sales.

With so many similar background files you are fortunate you did not start getting non-compliant rejections, which after a few of those could earn you a suspended account. With that said, regrettably I have to strongly suggest that you do not submit any more files looking close to those that were rejected. You have far too many on your profile. Do something totally different and submit. 

Avoid submitting multiple similar file together.

I hope you found this helpful.

Best wishes
