Hello! I have the same all february till now. I upload 50-100 photos a day and have accepted about 10% at Adobe. Before I had abot 80% accept. About 5 years it was ok. And vice versa with Shutterstock. They taking more than before. Today 100% were accepted. I`m not really worried or mad about that, but I intentionally uploaded a bunch of bad photos (out of focus, overprocessed etc.) in my son`s account, many of them were accepted. Interesting though.

That's not a good idea, even if it is to see if it is accepted or not. What is the purpose? It doesn't really make any sense!

May be that was not a good idea, but I did it and can not return. Purpose was to understand why Adobe all February refused 90% of all my uploads ( I had about 80 % accepted photos for 5 years or so) and most of accepted 10% were not so good as refused. And yes, may be it was pointless because I don`t have solution.

@glum person,

I feel that one day, you will get banned because you publicly and clearly admit violating the contributor terms.

Why? They were his pictures. I just working as keyworder sometimes and he let me upload some "other" quality pictures as test. We deleted accepted photos later and never will do that again. Point was to understand what kind of photos Adobe accepting better, black and white, oversaturated, with soft focus, wrong wb etc. Conclusion was that we can`t forsee.

Adobe take a very simple and broad view of the terms, and WHY you violate them is not important. Every day we hear from people whose accounts are closed without warning, losing all photos and unpaid funds, You may get away with it this time.

@glum person,

This isn't about YOUR or your son's work.

Also, submitting your work through your son's account is a violation of Adobe's TERMS. That could get you BOTH permanently banned from Stock. 😱
