Hi everyone! I am a student and uploaded three pictures for Adobe Stocks. 

Can anyone tell me why this wasn't considered? Please

You should check your assets at 100%. At 100%, you will see that your image has colour noise, and missing contrasts. Check the requirements before submitting.

 

If you are new to stock, you should consider these resources: https://helpx.adobe.com/stock/contributor/tutorials.html
Please read the contributor user manual for more information on Adobe stock contributions: https://helpx.adobe.com/stock/contributor/user-guide.html

and especially quality and technical issues: https://helpx.adobe.com/stock/contributor/help/quality-and-technical-issues.html

Did you carefully read the submission requirements in your Stock Contributors User Guide? 

Pay particular attention to the DOs & DON'Ts.  Don't submit Duotone or Black & White images. Stock customers want full -color assets. If customers wish to grayscale it after purchase, they can do that with one click in Photoshop. 

 

Don't submit multiple pictures of the same thing.  They'll be rejected for duplicate content.

 

Stock currently has over 34 million trees.  Find more unique subjects to submit.  Ones that have little to no representation.

Adobe Stock customers expect the highest visual and technical quality for use in commercial projects.  Submit only your best quality photos. 

 

Hope that helps.
