Hello community! I use Adobe products every day, but I am not very active on Stock so I am not sure what was wrong here. This is a hand drawn phone wallpaper - I drew it in Procreate using symmetry.  I did have to use Photoshop to upscale it because I make my wallpapers (for other places) at 1440x2560.  When I went to upload, it failed to upload due to being too small on the resolution.  I didn’t use the AI in photoshop to upscale it, I went the old fashioned way in Photoshop.  It’s not an AI image so I didn’t want to use AI to upscale it.  I brought it up to 2160x3840 and changed it to 300 DPI from 72 (I usually do phone wallpapers at 72.) Maybe it is just something they don’t like, but it is original and hand drawn.  The issue stated was a quality issue.  I will be selling it other places so it’s not a big deal for me, just wondering what the problem is here with this one.  Do you think it is just the style? Under quality is lists over exposure and other stuff, but this is hand drawn

I’ve been around and around with support on this and am hoping someone here can be of help. Long story short, all of my libraries on Stock have disappeared and I need to get them back. I’m missing years of collecting content for my client projects.I’m a Creative Cloud Pro user with a Stock plan. I had some questions about my Stock plan and an Adobe support agent recommended I change to a Teams plan so I could get unlimited stock. This seemed like the right choice so I made the switch and migrated my libraries to the Teams account. Well, it turned out that this was not the right plan for me because I need extended licensing.I switched back to a personal plan, losing my libraries and my credits.Does anyone have any suggestions on who to contact for this? I’ve tried multiple times and it seem like I’m just getting routed to a salesperson and it feels like they just want me to change my plan for a commission.

Hi, I was on a beautiful places and took many photos, so some are indeed similar and some where not at best quality, fully fine. However, in too many cases I just got “Similar...”.I highly believe Adobe has NO content from that locations, and if so, the situation changes over day, within a year, etc. Often the context matters, like maybe Adbobe has many pictures from lakes, but not from the little lake you have good memories of!For me the new Adobe algorithm for this decision might be broken. If would be great that the software would simple show me 2 or 3 of these similar pictures! Are they really similar, like very similar regarding orientation, framing, light situation, mood, quality, black-white vs color, etc.? For me it looks that the AI behind is overlooking several elements which make a picture worth buying. Also having something similar but a bit different may matter a lot for a buying decision, e.g. 10% closer to my expectitions might be the decision to buy or not. Thanks for f

I’ve been reflecting recently on the use of my assets on Adobe Stock and wanted to start a discussion regarding licensing and merchandise. Like many of you, I sometimes see my photos appearing on products where I suspect the appropriate license may not have been obtained. See below. It can feel disheartening to see work that is licensed for very low prices being used in ways that seem to bypass the intended licensing tiers. Unfortunately, Adobe offers us as contributors no way to see if an asset has been licensed and downloaded for use on merchandise. To clarify the Adobe Stock license terms. It’s important to note that the Standard License on Adobe Stock generally does not allow for the use of assets on merchandise where the asset is the primary value of the item (e.g., T-shirts, mugs, posters, etc.).If a user intends to use an asset on merchandise for resale, they are typically required to purchase an Extended License.Key Clarifications for Your Knowledge Standard vs. Extended/Enhanc

My file was approved first, but later I received an email saying it violated intellectual property rules and my account was banned. If the design had an issue, why was it approved before?

Hello,I am following up on my payment request submitted on May 25, 2026. As of june 04, 2026, the payment has not been received, and around 11 business days have passed.

I have very few PNG photo rejects from Adobe, from which I cannot determine why, and then re-submit where it is accepted. This one, however, has me stumped. The focus, detail, and overall quality appear to be OK...what am I missing?I should note, the original file size was over 6 MB, but I downsized this photo due to a 5 MB limit.

Hello, my Adobe Stock Contributor account was suddenly deactivated. I have already filled out the appeal form and my Case ID is 00516033. I have a massive portfolio of thousands of original designs with all layered PSD source files ready. My hard-earned payments are currently stuck, which is causing a huge impact on my business. I have received no update on my email for days. Can any moderator please help push my case to the review team? Thank you!

Hello! I'm a new autor. My photos were declined. I'll be glad if some professionals write me just main concretly problem of every this photo, like: "it's a exposure issues", "soft focus", "excessive filtering", "artifacts/noise". Respect and best regards. 

I would like to know why Adobe rejected these two photos.On my first attempt, they were rejected for lack of quality. I would like to know the reason to avoid making the same mistakes in the future and working in vain.Thank you very much to anyone who can help me.

"Hello Adobe Community Managers,I have been an Adobe Stock contributor for 3 years, and my Tax Form and ID are fully approved. However, my account is facing a technical bug where the Video Upload / FTP section is completely blank on my dashboard (it only displays the resolution guidelines but no Host, Username, or Password).I submitted a support ticket through the contributor contact form 3 days ago, but I have not received any response yet, and the feature remains locked.Could a Community Manager please escalate my case to the technical team to refresh my contributor profile and enable the Video FTP section? Thank you."

 Hello everyone,I want to start uploading AI-generated images and videos on Adobe Stock, and I would really appreciate guidance from experienced contributors here.My main questions are: Which AI platforms/tools are best for generating stock content? Are there any good free platforms where I can use free credits to create high-quality images and videos? For images, generation is relatively easy, but for videos: Which AI video upscaling tools work best? How can I improve video quality professionally before uploading? I also want advice about approval strategies: What are the best practices to increase the approval ratio? Are there any core strategies or common mistakes that beginners should know? How can I create AI content that has a very high chance of getting accepted on Adobe Stock? I’ll be waiting for suggestions and advice from all the senior contributors here.Thank you in advance! 

Hi everyone,About 8 months ago, I qualified for photo missions. Since then, I've completed 43 missions, and only 3 of them were rejected.Over the last couple of months, I've noticed that I'm receiving fewer missions than before. Does anyone know if the 3 rejected missions could be affecting the number of missions I'm getting? Has anyone else experienced something similar?The only other thing I can think of is that I haven't uploaded any new photos to my portfolio in the last 3 months. That said, I still complete almost every mission I receive.I'd appreciate hearing about your experiences. Thanks!

I would like to know why Adobe rejected these two photos.On my first attempt, they were rejected for lack of quality. After that, I processed them digitally, removed noise and artifacts, adjusted the lighting and color, and did an upscaling. To my surprise, Adobe rejected them a second time.I would like to know the reason to avoid making the same mistakes in the future and working in vain.Thank you very much to anyone who can help me.
