Problem with not displaying approved images on the site

That's normal for your region and will happen with most of my pictures too, if I set my region to yours. It does not disadvantage you, it's just a bit weird, as you do not see the asset. But be assured: as soon as it is approved, it is in the database, and open for sales. And when it generates a lot of sales, it will be vetted again and approved for your region too.

Perhaps you're located in one of the countries for which images require additional vetting before they are displayed in your country. Where are you located?
