Questions

Thanks for giving us the chance to consider your image. Unfortunately, this image doesn't meet our quality standards so we can’t accept it into our collection.Common issues that can impact the technical quality of images include exposure issues, soft focus, excessive filtering or artifacts/noise. Why rejected?

আমার অ্যাকাউন্টে ৩০০+ কাল সক্রিয় আছে। গতদিনে আমি যে ভেক্টর ডিজাইনগুলো আপলোড করছি, তাতে সমস্যা দেখা যাচ্ছে কিন্তু গুগল ব্যবহার করে দেখলাম যে কয়েকটা গ্রুপ একই ডিজাইন করছে না। এখন সমাধান কি?

Why are photos like those not accepted?

I am new here and my first contribution got rejected because of quality issues. I would like to learn from my mistakes but the message doesn't specify what I did wrong. Can you give me some feedback.

Recently I saw many people posting about their account suspension and deactivation. So I thought to ask Community Experts about every reason of account suspensions that they knew about as they respond to every post so they may have more knowledge about this topic then new contributors like me. Other people can also tell if they know something but Experts should correct if someone is wrong. This will help other newbie contributors also.Some points Which I know are that 1) If someone got many sales at once like rcently a contributor got around 200 images sold in only 2 days. So his account got blocked! 2) I am not confirmed of this but I think if someone uses the same payment method on another contributor account even though the first account got suspended or blocked, then this account will also be blocked. (Experts may correct me if I am wrong).*Please respond in bullet points. It's easy to read. Thank You

I create this design , its not ai image, why adobe tell me similar content and reject? Plz help me 

Why are the photos rejected? I want to know what I need to do to get this photo accepted? What is the intellectual property violation here?Can't you use the image of a globe? But everything is blurry there! What is the authorship?

Hello! Why did my photos of KL famous sckyscraper — Petronas Towers were refused after a submission as an intellectual property violation? For instance, Adobe Stock has photos of the Petronas Towers (https://stock.adobe.com/ar/search?k=%22petronas+towers%22&asset_id=1298384431), and this obviously does not violate anyone's intellectual property rights, since the Petronas Towers are a landmark of Kuala Lumpur. 

Hello there,I have the problem that my microscopic pictures get rejected quite often, and I don’t really know why.In microscopy, the organism looks sharp in parts, but the depth of field is usually very shallow, especially at higher magnifications — I can’t change that.Also, floating particles or small specks are quite common, especially at higher magnifications. Could it be that these are interpreted as “dust” or “defects”? Maybe someone can help ? 

 Can anyone explain why this image was rejected as "similar content"?I uploaded it with the keywords below,autumn, seasonal concept, autumn aesthetic, fall inspired, forest woman, autumn inspiration, autumn portrait, fall leaves, seasonal beauty, fantasy art, conceptual art, warm colors, autumn fashion, creative photography, leafy hair, autumn concept, natural crown, autumn goddess, magical portrait, autumn makeup, fantasy portrait, autumn background, dreamy portrait, autumn season, nature inspired, earthy palette, fall woman, fall fashion, seasonal headpiece, enchanting portrait, mystical art, rustic beauty, nature theme, artistic portrait, foliage hair, fantasy beauty., woman, beauty, fashion, fantasy"I searched using my image on Adobe Stock, there's no one similar to my image https://stock.adobe.com/lk/search/images?filters%5Bcontent_type%3Aimage%5D=1&filters%5Bcontent_type%3Aphoto%5D=1&native_visual_search=68a6d3b675dcc&search_type=visual-search-browse  T

Hello everyone,Several images I uploaded to Adobe Stock have been rejected, the reason is that I didn't tag them as being generated by AI. The problem is that all these images are 3D renders that I created myself, without using any AI tools. These are original works in wich I have invested a lot of time and effort. What do you do in these cases? Is there any way to appeal the decision or to clarify that they are 3D renders and no AI creations? Any advice or experience you can share would a great help. Thank you very much!

Hello, I have been a contributing photographer for 15 years and now I participate in AI learning missions. This is the second time that the mission has been terminated prematurely and I have not had time to submit the finished work. The termination date was originally August 22nd and today is August 20th and the mission has disappeared. Is this a bug or has anyone else had the same experience please?

 I uploaded image and it got rejected but it saying quality issue but I find no difference in quality with the one got accepted is someone can help.

Hello Adobe Stock team and fellow contributors,I requested payout on Agust 15, 2025, to my skril account. Today marks 6 business days since the request, but the payout status is still showing as "Pending" in my dashboard.Does anyone know when I will receive the payment?

Hello Adobe Stock Team and Community,I wanted to share my concern regarding the current AI review system for submissions. I’ve noticed that some of my files are being rejected with the reason cited as “similar content,” even though they are unique and original.As a contributor, it feels discouraging when creative work is rejected automatically, without human verification. I understand the importance of maintaining quality standards, but I feel the current system may not fully recognize originality and uniqueness in all cases.I hope Adobe can consider refining the AI review process or include a human review option for contested rejections. This would help contributors like me continue creating confidently, knowing our work will be judged fairly.Thank you for listening. I look forward to feedback and discussion from the community.— Sandeep Kumar

Dear Stock Contributors, I fail to see how a 29 second 4K 30fps video of a butterfly pollinating a flower in my garden can be refused on the grounds of intellectual property infringement?

Hi everyone,I just made a sale on Adobe Stock for $1.01, but unlike before, it hasn,t been added to my balance. Normally, royalties appear instantly or within a few minutes.Has anyone experienced a similar delay recently? Could this be a technical issue or something else affecting small royalties?Any insights would be appreciated!Thanks!

Hi Community, How is the price for per free video nomination in 2025?   [Moderator moved the thread to the correct forum]    

I've started creating timelapse traffic footage and am wondering if it would be accepted.  Looking at existing uploads from other contributors there are clips that, when paused, vehicle registrations, logos and other company logos are identifiable.  Is this considered acceptable?  Additionally, although hard to see clearly, people's faces are also sometimes visible in my clips but I've also seen this on existing uploads on Adobe Stock.  Are these submissions I'm seeing from select contributors or is this type of content permissable in certain situations?

지난 주말과 최근 5일간 모든 사진이 거부 됨. 품질 저하는 이해하겠는데, 유사한컨텐츠로 다 거부됨. 활동 안하는 기고자들이거나, 1~2년 간 안팔린 사진들은 자동으로 소멸을 시키던지..새롭게 시작한 기고자들은 평가 기회도 없이 유사한 컨텐츠라고 전부 거부되면,  기고자로서 활동을 하라는것인지 말라는것인지 평가 기회는 줘야하는것 아님? 

Hello Adobe Community, I am unable to log in to my Adobe Stock Contributor account because I receive the error: “Multiple account usage not allowed.” This may be due to an older account linked to a different email. I only want to keep one account active (my Gmail) and have the other account(s) closed. I have already emailed Contributor Support with all the details, but I haven’t received a response. I also tried reaching out through the help form, but the issue still persists. Could someone from the Adobe team or the community help me resolve this or escalate it to the right support team? Thank you,Satyakam   [Moderator moved the thread to the correct forum]

Hello everyone, Recently I noticed that many contributors have been nominated for the Adobe Stock Free Collection. However, from what I see, these nominations are mostly for images, vectors, and illustrations.As a video/animation contributor, I haven’t received any nomination, and neither have many other contributors who mainly upload videos. 👉 My question is:Is the Free Collection currently limited only to images and similar assets?Will Adobe extend this program to include videos in the future? It would be great to have some clarification so that video contributors also know what to expect. Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,I’m experiencing a strange issue when uploading graphics to Adobe Stock. After submission, I can see my files in the “In Review” section for some days. But then, after a while, they vanish: They don’t show up in the “Not Accepted” (Rejected) section.They aren’t visible on my dashboard or anywhere else.It’s like they just disappear from the platform. Has anyone else faced this issue?Do you know what happens to these vanished files?Is there something specific I should be doing to recover or track them?Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello everyone.Let's get straight to the point! Several pieces of content I submitted to Adobe Stock were rejected because they were deemed similar to other pieces. However, I actually checked the other pieces for relevance by uploading the same rejected photos to Adobe Stock. I examined all the pages, even hundreds of pages, and for some photos, I didn't find any similar content to what I submitted. They might be the same subject, but not the same idea or the same colors. So I'd like to fully understand the reason for the rejection.Thank you very much for your attention.
