Question

Non Ai images got rejected saying that they are missing ai generated flag

Hello Adobe Stock Team,

I am a contributor and recently some of my files were rejected as “AI-generated” and “similar content.”
I would like to clarify that these designs are fully handmade by me in Photoshop drawing tools, without any AI.

I did not save the original PSD file for this particular artwork but i made another jpg file from that design, but I can recreate it again step by step if needed to show proof of authorship. In future, I will keep layered source files to avoid confusion.

Could you please review this case again?
I want to ensure my portfolio follows all Adobe Stock rules, and I am happy to provide the original layered PSD/AI file if needed to prove authorship.


Thank you for your understanding and support.

The similar refusal is unrelated to the generative AI refusal. Sometimes, moderators have a hard time to check assets and finding out if an asset is generative AI or not. If your asset gets falsly flagged, you need to submit a property release, where you state that the asset is of your own creative making and that no generative AI has been involved. 

 

This does not guarantee that the asset will pass, however, as there may also be some wuality issues, or you may get hit by this annoying "similar assets" refusal. 

 

BTW: this is not Adobe team or Adobe contributor support, but this forum is exclusively driven by fellow contributors.

1. Submit a signed Property Release by you as the artist.

 

2. This is what Stock has to say about 'similar content.'

 

Hope that helps.
