Hi all

I got images rejected with this explanation:

 

We are looking for imagery intended to illustrate articles on current events and news, focused on conceptual imagery using real brands and products to convey strong ideas.

 

From other side the artefacts are located in place with entrance fee and by my understanding (of the Adobe rules) they can't be with commersial license and must be educational.

 

So is this mean Adobe do not want at all ordinary images from museums (for example)?

There is no “educational” image status on Adobe stock. There is only Illustrative Editorial. Not all assets that are refused as on for commercial use can be accepted as Illustrative Editorial. You should either get a property release or you should move on.

If you read the guidelines and look at what has been accepted, you are right, it's inconsistent. But it's inconsistent the other way around. Your images should have been refused. I'm not nagging, when I get a refusal, I move on.
