Rejections

Question

Yesterday, I uploaded more than twenty illustrations to the stock pile. They were all rejected. One of my images was of a space-eye-view of our planet, surrounded by book-like satellites. The response was: "During our review, we found that it contains elements that appear to be protected by intellectual property laws, so we can't accept it into our collection." Below is another image that was rejected for the same reason. Can someone explain that to me?

That's only 2 of the 24 rejections. What I'd like to know is how to get out of this so-called service and remove all of my images.

Hi Michael,While we have already discussed this offline I will answer the question for viewers of this thread in case they have a similar question. There are a couple of issues involved here. The first issue is that you have added your signature to the file. These images are to be used for commercial use. The images must be submitted with no watermark or signature.Regarding intellectual property, when it appears an image was created from a source file, you must submit a property release indicating that you are the original artist or that you have permission to license the image for commercial use from the original artist.You can find additional information regarding intellectual property and other legal guidelines at this link: Legal Guidelines for Adobe Stock Contributor program Kind regards,Mat Hayward
