Stock Contributors

Hi everyone,I recently received multiple rejections with the reason "Similar Images," but I'm confused because I uploaded only one image in each category. I would like to understand how Adobe Stock determines similarity. Are they comparing my uploads with images from my own portfolio, or are they also checking against other contributors' images?Also, since many of my recent submissions were rejected, I'm concerned. Will this affect the health or standing of my contributor account in any way?I would really appreciate it if someone could clarify how this works and whether there are any long-term impacts from multiple rejections.Thanks in advance for your help!

hi, may i know it is prohibited to us for uploading the two illustration but with different styles? like these Only flat style that has been accepted. Thanks in advance. 🙂

Some one plz tell me why attached AI images are rejected

Хотела бы знать причину откланения загружений моих фотографий, что бы знать можно что то исправить в будущем    

cannot see why these were rejected be cause of quility issues. Top quality lens all others have passed using this drone . They were acessed within      2 hours this must have been a computer assessing these. Alamy and Shutterstock pased ok. I have noticed this is happening more now with adobe. I am an experienced photographer of many years.   [Moderator moved the thread to the correct forum]

Please advise if I should send this image for review? About the same one, only with eggplants and different emotions was rejected. The reason is a similar image. But the rejected one was the first one and I didn't send similar ones. Maybe Adobe has a lot of such images and they decided to clean them from similar content?

Do logos on buildings need to be removed from cityscape images?

Hi Adobe friends,These two photos I submitted were rejected, and I'm trying to understand why. I masked the lake and adjusted the temperature and saturation to make it more blue, but that's it. Any thoughts? I appreciate your feedback!Thank you,David

all my pictures are rejected, 47 pictures in less than 24 hours. what do I do? upload them as shot? tweak them in Lightroom? I'm getting really paranoid. Does Adobe still keep the pics for AL learning even if they are rejected?

하지만 나의 이미지는 다른 비슷한 이미지들보다 좀 더 패셔너블한 느낌이 있고동일한 이미지도 없으며어도비 스탁내에 이런 무드의 사진들이 많은데나의 사진만 유사성으로 인해 업로드가 거부당한 납득가능한 이유를 알고 싶어요.  

Getting loads of my photos removed all of a sudden. Some years old, with little assistance in the rejection as to why. Seems really frustrating the process, for something that gives pittance anyways. insert loads of poor quality photos on Stock,l. I have read the terms and still confused as to why some of these photos are all of a sudden ombeing pulled. is the internal audit just an algorithm? 

Hello, I want to ask, I want to upload my stock video in mp4 format, but when I check the assets or stock videos of other contributors, they are all in MOV format, My videos are made using AI so the default format is mp4, do I have to convert my video first to MOV format??

I am following with interest the discussions about rejects due to ‘similarity with previously submitted images’. In my opinion, there is only one plausible reason for this. Since the phenomenon has been observed, it has been possible for customers to ‘generate variants’ for every stock photo. That is the solution to the puzzle. Adobe only needs one photo, the customer can generate the series or variants himself via AI. So it's not a bug but a feature that only individual photos are accepted from our photos. More is no longer necessary. However, an AI can never create variants like the photographer can. But that no longer seems to matter. I switched to AI a long time ago and have always created around 3 - 5 variants. But I was somehow lying to myself, because my portfolio of 3000 images actually only corresponds to 1000 unique images and I am somehow grateful to Adobe for sharpening my mind in this respect. Just my opinion.

HI,  I have been uploading photos to Adobeo stock for a long time and have never received a positive or negative rating for uploading to the portfolio or being rejected. I upload photos every week and the recent ones are immediately submitted for judging. but I always have those waiting. what can I do?thanks to everyone who can help me.   [Moderator moved the thread to the correct forum]

Lately, more rejection than approval. I'm working so hard on these! Please help me to understand what I'm doing wrong. Thank you! 

I've had several photos rejected for "Quality Issues", this one here as an example.  I did very little or no cropping and the files sizes were sufficiently large.  I did go through a process for all to adjust for white balance, white point, black point, exposure, highlights, shadows, contrast, clarity, vibrance, and sharpening.   Am I over-editing causing these "Quality Issues"?  How much is too much, or is there such a thing??

Hello. Adobe reejected a photo from my library and I do not konow why!!!??? There is such an universal reason/answer but nothing specific. So I do not know if I can submit other photos or not. Who advice me?

I have same problem, I submitted 2 vector file, but these rejected after 2 days, because of Quality Issues. What is the solution?   (moderator detached this from an unrelated thread)

A few days ago, I’ve submitted several images to Adobe Stock, and they were rejected due to lack of quality. Can you tell me what is wrong with my images and how can I fix them to achieve a perfect quality?   [Moderator moved the thread to the correct forum]

Could you please provide detailed information regarding: The use of recognizable branded elements (e.g., logos, trademarks, product designs) in both photographs and illustrations. The rules surrounding derivative works, especially when referencing public domain or AI-generated content. The necessary permissions or releases required when submitting content that might feature intellectual property indirectly (e.g., architecture, vehicles, packaging). Specific considerations for AI-generated content and how IP rules apply in that context. Any clarification or resources you could share would be greatly appreciated. My goal is to maintain the highest standard of compliance and contribute responsibly to the platform.   [Moderator cured the topics. Please do select only relevant topics.]

Hi, I don't know what's wrong with this photo. It wasn't approved due to quality.

Hello Adobe team,I accidentally submitted an AI-generated illustration as a "Photo" instead of the correct asset type "Illustration".File ID: 1408324745Title: Strawberries with creamThere is no delete button available for this file on my contributor dashboard. I kindly ask you to help me remove this file so I can reupload it under the correct category.Thank you very much for your assistance.Best regards,Amar Aoudia
