Reviewing Contributors Content issues

Iam at awe at the number of images of mine being not accepted due to technical issues and needing property releases where non is need.    I work with 6 different well established stock agencies and have done really well.  All of my images have been approved except on a rare occasion where a logo or branding slipped by me.  I have been a photographer for many years and worked as a commercial real property and their services photographer until my retirement.  Because of this work I have a lot of knowledge about releases and when it is necessary to acquire them.   I sell almost daily on Adobe Stock with the ones that were accepted.  Funny to see what they declined as technical issues and needing property releases are some of my non editorial top sellers on other stock agencies.  

I believe the reviewers are not of top quality, or training.  Anyone else have this issue.

    Adobe Moderators seem to be quite conservative with regard to potential IP violations. They don't have time to research questionable images to determine whether there is indeed a violation. If you would like to receive community feedback on a few of your rejected images, please upload here in full size.

    I can't judge your pictures when you do not show them, but I know by experience that "other well established stock agencies" did accept bad assets of mine, that got rightfully refused here. Some refusals here are selling well on other stock agencies, but the contrary is true too. 

     

    I think, to the contrary, that Adobe's moderators are doing a better job at refusing assets then other agencies. A lot of complaints here start with "but they were accepted elsewhere", but when we look into them, we see many artefacts and other shortcomings.

     

    And let me say this: Adobe stock is highly successful with their system.

        It would be nice if you could upload one or two of the rejected images so that we could validate or disagree with your opinion.
