    Upscaling, unless followed up with careful editing, might improve resolution but can degrade overall quality. High resolution is not indicative of quality.

    What is making you think the reactions you are getting are due to resolution?

    Without sharing your work, there’s little objective input anyone can give you

    Hey ​@Hotdogpizza 

    When posting to Adobe Stock… a few Qs to consider?
    Who is my target audience? 
    What purpose or problem is this image going to solve?
    When would a potential buyer use my image?
    Where would these images be used professionall? (not necessarily social media) 

    How would these images be used in a professional setting?

    Cheers
    Nate

      You can start by uploading a couple of your rejected images here so we can get a bead on what you might be doing wrong or that needs correction.
