Stock Contributors

Hi everyone,​I am facing an issue with my Adobe Stock contributor account. Whenever I upload and submit just 2 or 3 photos, I immediately get a "submission limit reached" error, even though my account is relatively new and I haven't uploaded in bulk.​Could someone please guide me on why this is happening? Is there a temporary restriction on new accounts, or how can I resolve this issue?​Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'm wondering what kind of similar designs should be avoided. For example, if I'm designing something about "laser lines," which is a design I've done successfully and consistently use, I want to make sure my designs don't duplicate this style.My work will focus on keywords related to "laser."Is this against Adobe's rules?

​Hi Adobe Staff and Community,​I am posting to report a technical anomaly on my account and request assistance from an Adobe Staff member to review my profile status.​Recently, 100% of my submitted photos have been systematically rejected for "Quality Issues" by the automated pre-filtering system, regardless of the diverse subjects or shooting conditions.​To test whether my account is stuck in an automated rejection loop, I conducted a controlled test by submitting a close-up photograph of a restricted legal item — a current Japanese banknote (File ID: 2174590018).​The Anomaly:Instead of being flagged for Policy Violation or Intellectual Property (as required by platform regulations for legal tender), the image was instantly rejected for "Quality Issues".​This proves that an automated first-level AI gatekeeper is indiscriminately blocking submissions at the technical level before any actual content, policy, or intellectual property evaluation occurs.​Could an Adobe Staff member please

Hi everyone,I’m looking specifically for real cases where an Adobe Stock Contributor account was blocked with the following type of notice:  “Your account has been blocked for violating the requirements for generative AI content…”The notice mentions violations such as excessive similar submissions, incorrect AI labeling/titles/keywords, missing releases, etc.I am not looking for advice to contact Contributor Support — I have already submitted my appeal and am currently waiting for Adobe’s response.What I would really like to know is: Has anyone received this exact or very similar Generative AI violation notice and later had their account reinstated? How long did the review take? Was the account fully restored? Were the portfolio and earnings preserved? Did Adobe explain what caused the violation? Did you have to remove or correct specific files? Was the reinstatement granted after the first appeal, or only after a second review? If your account was permanently terminated,

My assets has been nominate as adobe free collection for one year term, and it will be paid upfront,, i want to know when will i can get the payment.

Hello. I’ve received a very general response from Adobe about a technical video rejectionResponse:“...it contains one or more technical issues, such as unintentional shaking, empty black or white frame, compression and/or audio issues..” With this responses I’m not able to detect precisely the problem.I contact support but they told me “we are unable to provide specific feedback on individual refusals”So. Is this forum the place to request help to somebody for review my video or discuss which could be the problem to correct and reupload?Thanks!

From my latest upload all images were rejected (quality-issues). I can't see whats the problem. Two of these images are file-ID's : 2174233649 (Kingfisher) and 2174233649 (skyline of Rotterdam).Can anyone please help me. I get the feeling that the rejections are very depending on personal taste.Hope to hear from you,Emma

Hi everyone,I am a long-standing Adobe Stock contributor. Unfortunately, I have permanently lost access to the Google account associated with my contributor profile and am completely locked out of my account.Following the official guidelines, I sent a detailed email to contributor-support@adobe.com exactly 14 days ago (on August 14th) requesting an email transfer. However, I have not received a response yet, nor did I receive an automated ticket confirmation.I understand the support team is busy, but I am very anxious about my portfolio and earnings. I have all necessary verification details ready to privately provide to Adobe staff (including my National ID, registered billing address, and details of my linked Payoneer payout account).Could any of the Community Experts or Adobe Staff members please assist me, check if my email was received, or help escalate this request?Thank you so much for your time and kind support❗

On November 18, 2025, I withdrew The Payment From Adobe Stock. But I have not received the payment so far. Why has not come to my skill account?

#2081992088The image says “PRONT” & should be “print”

When I use keywords, I'm very careful to avoid spam. But if I accidentally include irrelevant keywords in some images, These are old photos, submitted for approval a long time ago. is my account at risk of being closed?Right now, I'm checking every image and correcting the keywords.

New Adobe Stock Contributor – Submit Option Suddenly DisappearedHi everyone,I’m a new Adobe Stock contributor and I’m currently facing a submission issue.So far, I have submitted 53 vectors: ✅ 28 approved ⏳ 13 under review ❌ 12 rejected (mostly due to Similar Content) Today, I noticed that the Submit option is suddenly no longer available when I try to submit new vectors.Could this be because I’ve reached the weekly submission limit for new contributors? Or could having 13 files currently under review be causing the submission option to disappear?I’d really appreciate it if experienced contributors could clarify: What is the submission limit for new contributors? How often does the limit reset? Does the number of files under review affect the ability to submit? Does the submission limit increase over time based on account performance? Any advice or experience would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello Adobe Stock Community,I have a question about the “Created using generative AI tools” checkbox when submitting videos to Adobe Stock.I create my stock videos completely by myself using JavaScript, HTML Canvas, mathematical formulas, and programming/animation techniques.I do not use any generative AI tools such as ChatGPT image generation, Midjourney, Adobe Firefly, Runway, Sora, or other AI image/video generators.For example, I may use mathematical calculations and JavaScript code to create procedural animations, shapes, patterns, graphs, simulations, and other motion graphics.In this situation:Do I need to check the “Created using generative AI tools” checkbox when submitting these videos to Adobe Stock?Or can I submit them as non-generative-AI content without checking the AI checkbox?I would appreciate an official clarification because I want to make sure my submissions follow Adobe Stock's current contributor guidelines.Thank you.

Hey recently I got msgs from my friends and different communities that adobe stock is suspending accounts and they are not giving the exact reason that why they are doing this just they do is send the same email that written down only that account blocked due to terms and violations and other thing is that many accounts have been suspended at a same time could any clarify this that what happening because my 3 friends that completely depend on Adobe stock are now like in meter a away to becoming broke they spent 6 - 7 years doing this and now adobe stock is suspending accounts with out any reason and also when we use there contact us it also doesn’t work like they are completely dead at customer support! is anybody here have a clear reason for that?

Has anyone else noticed a recent increase in Adobe Stock account suspensions? I’ve come across several contributors saying their accounts were disabled without receiving a clear explanation of the exact violation. Many of them also appear to have received very similar notification emails.This is becoming concerning for contributors who have spent years building their portfolios and following Adobe’s guidelines. Could someone from Adobe please explain whether there has been a recent enforcement change, system issue, or specific policy that is causing these suspensions?Clear information about the reason behind these actions would really help contributors understand the situation and know how to properly appeal or resolve it.

Hi Adobe Support Team,My Adobe Stock contributor account was suddenly deactivated today without any prior warning or specific reason. I strictly follow all Adobe Stock guidelines and only submit high-quality, original assets. This morning, I only updated my profile photo, and shortly after, my dashboard became inaccessible. I believe my account has been restricted due to an automated system error or technical glitch. I kindly request a manual review of my account and ask you to please restore my access. Thank you. 

Hello Community Staff and Moderators,I am requesting assistance with an appeal review that has been pending for over 6 weeks without an update. Contributor Member ID: 212953158 Previous Case Reference: 00471487 Appeal Submission Date: July 17, 2026 (submitted via the Transparency Center Appeal Form) My account was blocked after an issue arose while trying to link my Payoneer payout details. I filed the formal appeal on July 17 as directed by support, but I have not received a case confirmation number, a status update, or an appeal outcome email.Could a moderator or Adobe staff member please check if there is an internal status update on my account or help forward this to the Contributor Support / Compliance queue?Thank you for your time and assistance.

Hi everyone,I wanted to ask the Adobe Stock contributor community for some advice because I’m honestly quite worried about what happened to my account.Today I received an email saying that my contributor account has been blocked for a “Terms violation.” The email only gives general reasons and doesn’t mention which specific asset or activity caused the block.I’ve been contributing to Adobe Stock for quite a while and have uploaded almost 7,000 assets. I’ve always tried my best to follow the submission guidelines, and I have never intentionally violated Adobe’s policies.What makes this especially difficult for me is that Adobe Stock has been my main source of income, so losing access to my account has a huge impact on me.I’ve already contacted Adobe and submitted an appeal. Now I’m waiting to hear back, but I wanted to ask other contributors here:Has anyone experienced a similar account block/Terms violation notice and successfully had their account reinstated?Is there anything else I s

I’m exploring AI-generated images for Adobe Stock and want to focus on creating commercially useful visuals rather than generic AI artwork. I’m particularly interested in understanding what types of images are most useful to brands, creators, businesses, and marketing teams, and what subjects or visual concepts have consistent demand. I’d also like to understand best practices for creating high-quality, original, commercially viable AI content that follows Adobe Stock’s requirements.

Hi all..I'm a beginner in adobe stock. I tried submitting a few AI generated videos and all the videos are getting rejected reasoning IP violation. I used Gemini Omni flash for video generation and herewith attached of the videos which were rejected. Can someone tell me what is the issue here? Thanks in advance. 

Sicher für jeden Neuling hier ein großes Problem. Ich bin dankbar für jedes Feedback, damit ich meine Fotoauswahl und die Bearbeitungsweise anpassen kann. Mir werden viele Fotos abgelehnt, jetzt bin ich auf andere Meinungen angewiesen, auf Dauer macht es so keinen Spass. Vielen, vielen Dank für euer Feedback!
