Quality issues AI Photos

Until recently, 99% of my images went through. These were all created with Midjourney and are all realistic images where people or objects can be seen. The images are not under or overexposed, they are not pixelated and of course the images are upscaled and are symmetrical.

 

Adobe has recently started rejecting all images even though the quality of the images has increased significantly since the new midjourney update. The same images are 99% accepted on other platforms.

I'm having the same problem. 99% of my images were rejected due to quality issues. I think it's because the images are too saturated and have too much contrast. However, I've tried to reduce this problem using Photoshop. Are there any settings in Midjourney to reduce excess saturation and sharpness? THANKS

That's a Midjourney question. You might check one of its forum on Facebook. Never had that problem myself.

You obviously overlooked something. Carefully examine every quadrant of each image at 100% - 300% magnification.

 

Midjourney has trouble with fine details, especially in the face and hands.  It doesn't count fingers properly.  Or it adds odd artifacts to hair & clothing.  AI is not intelligent, and it's too stupid to know what mistakes it makes.  That's the contributor's job.

 

If you want specifics, you'll need to post one or two rejected images (full sized) here for us to inspect.

Maybe that was not warranted. Possibly 99% should have been refused. Adobe increases sporadically its quality requirements. And that is necessary, as many scrap images made it into the database.

It has been shown by others that most other platforms do not apply the same quality standard as Adobe does. Adobe is master in its house. It's irrelevant if someone else has accepted the asset.

 

Show us one or two of your refused assets as submitted, and we can look at them. State the refusal reason (header) as given by Adobe.

Not much we can tell you without seeing a couple examples of the images that have been rejected. In any case, what gets accepted on other platforms is no guarantee they will be accepted by Adobe.
