Those releases are from EaseRelease app.

Who can describe what is wrong with these releases?

Why adobe reject them every time. Before I have not faced with problems like this?

Maybe something changed in rules?

Maybe adobe accepts only releases in own form(as posted in FAQ).

 

 

Correct answer Abambo

Another question is if I upload photos of  toys to stock that were taken on a photo background. So do I need a property release?

That may be a taff question to answer. In general, I would say yes, as they are really the subject of interest. So the designer of the items has to approve the use for stock. However, if they are generic items, ie you can't distinguish the  product maker like with a hammer, cisors or things like that, you won't need a release. It's probably a matter of the moderator's discretion, if they will accept it or not.

FYI: I needed to delete your model releases, as the showed too much private data. You really need to be more careful publishing your phone number or your full address or an e-mail here. 

 

As for the realeases: even if it is better to have a witness, if both parties (model and photographer) are dults, witnesses are not necessary. I rarly use a witness. 

 

Adobe accepts any model release that contains all the necessary information: age of the model, address, irrevocable and unconditional release.  

 

This is what Adobe writes on their site: "We also accept model releases in the following languages, as long as they’re filled out correctly and are substantially similar to the Adobe Stock release form. "

If you want an easy fix for this on the Adobe site: use the digitally signed release. That's easy, as long as you do not submit to different stock sites, as other sites do not accept the digitally signed release.

Thanks for reply!

 

Could you know why adobe does not send these images for review?

Release is a digitaly signed release from adobe. But when I submit it - it just reloads the page without any message.

Why are you submitting a release for a "fruit object"?

This rejection issue: does Adobe explicitly state that you need to submit a proper release?

Adobe rejects these releases almost immediately, but dont say a reason of rejection.

Adobe never gives precise information on the rejection.

The signatures all look the same. Are you the model, photographer, and witness?

Then that makes sense. But can you be your own witness? Just throwing out ideas here. My assets don't require model releases, so I'm not that familiar with what Adobe expects from one.
