Stock Contributors

I started 5 months ago thinking of keeping my work exclusively with Adobe. I've uploaded almost 1500 shots,  and the rejection percentage has dramatically increased in the last month with photos that have no issues whatsoever.  Annoyed by this, I started uploading to Getty, where 80% of Adobe's rejections have been accepted. Now  my sales here have virtually stopped... Has anyone experienced this? Am I been paranoid?  Below are some of the photos rejected.  Any coments will be appreciated

Hi All,I aim to create a good gallery for those looking for photos, but most of the images are rejected!Could you tell me what is wrong with this photo? And why was it rejected? 

I use /ca/ but I can't see my latest approved artworks on my system. Why? My artworks are approved. There are 13 that are shown but there should be 16 in total. The last 3 are approved.   [Moderator moved the thread to the correct forum]

Hello!    I recently submitted these photos to Adobe Stock and was told it didn't meet their quality standards. I'm wondering if I can have some guidence on what they are looking for so I can keep that in mind for future photos and editing. I've noticed that it talks about image quality with being too overexposed, grainy or the image not being sharp, but I've double checked and now I'm just confused.   Any guidence would be appreciated.   [Moderator moved the thread to the correct forum]

hello adobe stock contributor developer, my ai images are often rejected. even though I generate them using adobe firefly, I have selected and edited the images as well as possible. is there a technical problem in uploading the ai images?

Is anyone here facing payment issue above 10 days still didn't receive my payment 

If you submit such files, there is no problem with this account. All the work is mine.          

Why reJected these image from adobe stock?

I am currently trying to photograph the interesting court houses in the UK. BUT... It's a lottery if they are accepted or not. I have an image of the court building in Manchester that has sold twice in less than six months.  Yesterday I uploaded photos of Liverpool court building and they were rejected in less than 12 hours. I don't understand what the issue is, either accept them all or reject them all, not accept some and not others. Does anyone else have this issue? Can I ask Adobe to have a look and confirm their editorial policy?    [Moderator moved the thread to the correct forum]

Hi everyone. I have hard times finding the quality issue that led to the refusal. Also I don't understand why these files (and some others) git rejected quickly, while other pictures from the same batch are still waiting in the queue. So I'm guessing, the rejection is due to some AI procedure? Thank you!Chris

Dear Adobe-Community, this picture was denied because of qualitiy issues.I can imagine which issues it had, i'm a bloody amateur. I want to know , if this picutre is interesting or not. Technical issues are not the problem. What is your opinion from a creative standpoint, about the picture? I try to become a digital art painter, so it would be very nice to hear if i have a future in this field, or should i let it be?That would be nice to hear from you. Have a nice day Sebastian 

First time on forum... Not sure why these two photos rejected for quality issues. Shot with 47mb Leica Q2 RAW with fixed focal lens 28mm (selective focus deliberate on the stones).  A few others shot same day with same camera accepted.  Overprocessing in LR?  Any feedback is welcome.  Would like to resubmit if I can figure out what to change...

I’m a graphic designer and hobbyist photographer who enjoys capturing travel and landscape scenes. I share only the best of my work—images I believe have commercial potential—after carefully editing them to meet professional standards. And I didn't use AI generated content. As of now, I’ve uploaded 721 photos, illustrations, and vectors to my portfolio. However, I’ve also received 524 rejections while these rejected photos are accepted in other stock sites. This means, statistically, about half of my submissions are declined. In some cases, I can’t even find my accepted photos through search—even when using the exact title and precise keywords. This experience makes me question whether there might be a bias or disparity in how contributors from certain countries are evaluated. I assume Adobe see my photos require more professional treatment and doesn't meet as their commercial standard. Photography, especially travel-based, demands real effort, time, and financial commit

Bonjour. J'ai plusieurs photos qui n'ont pas été jugées depuis plusieurs mois (jusqu'à 9 mois). Serait-il possible de mettre à jour ces validations ? Je vous remercie par avance. Cordialement.

Hello everyone,I hope the professional stock photographers here won’t hold it against me, but I have a few questions regarding some images that were rejected with the reason cited as "QUALITY ISSUES." These images were, of course, AI-generated, and I’ve been focusing on a specific niche. Ironically, the very photos I was most confident about, those I believed had strong commercial potential—were the ones that got rejected.Could someone with more experience or a professional eye help me understand what might be the exact reason for their rejection?
