Adobe stock has been recognizing my metadata in my photos, but all of a sudden it is not.  It shows up when you look at File Info in Photoshop or metadata in Bridge. Any ideas? Richard

Hi there,I’m facing an issue.I’m trying to upload the Adobe Stock mission “Lighting Change with People.”After completing all the required steps, I receive the following message:“Some assets do not have model releases attached. Please attach model releases to all assets and try again.”

  Hello, can I ask for information on what exactly is wrong with these photos that they were not accepted? Thank you.

Hello Adobe contributor community. I am only 2 weeks old and curious on the quality issues for my abstract art. Any advice will greatly be appreciated and thank you in advance for your time and patience. 

Hi everyone,I’d appreciate some advice. I created an image using AI, but it was rejected due to quality requirements.Could you please suggest how I can improve it so it meets the platform’s quality standards? Would using tools like Topaz AI for upscaling or noise reduction help, or are there specific adjustments you would recommend?Thank you in advance for your guidance. 

HelloI uploaded some photos and the ones that have been approved are visible in the dashboard page but when I click on them they are not displayed on the site and an error page is shown.I wanted to see what is the reason why the photos are not displayed?

Could someone please share some insight as to why and what I can do to get my photos submitted. I enjoy taking raw photographs with minimal editing.

Hay una foto de mi catálogo, al menos que yo sepa, la cual ha sido aceptada hace un año y medio y se ha vendido dos veces, que no consigo encontrarla si hago una búsqueda introduciendo algunas de las palabras clave más relevantes de título, ni tan siquiera con la descripción literal de la imagen. He hecho la prueba con otra imagenes y no he tenido problema. El número de archivo es este 925127291

I frequently submit AI-generated abstract background images and often encounter similar content rejections. One thing I’m still trying to understand is how the similar content policy is applied. From a contributor’s perspective, it sometimes feels that additional variations could actually provide buyers with more choice.   I’d also like to ask whether frequent similar content rejections can affect a contributor’s account in any way  for example, leading to longer review times or stricter daily submission limits.   If similar content rejections do have an impact on an account, what would be the best approach to avoid them? As contributors, it can be difficult to predict whether an image may be considered similar, since we don’t know what other contributors have already uploaded. So far, I haven’t found any tools that can help predict the risk of similar content before submitting.   I would really appreciate any insights or best practices on how to better evaluate whe

Hi there,I have recently joined Adobe Stock Contributor community and I got 4 out of 50 photos accepted, which is a decent approval ratio for a beginning. However, I am curious why 2 of these 4 photos got rejected:  Photos were rejected with this reason:"Common issues that can impact the technical quality of images include exposure issues, soft focus, excessive filtering or artifacts/noise. "There was no filtering other than regular cropping and photo editing in Lightroom.

Hallo Zusammen,   ich habe derzeit Probleme beim einreichen von Stockfotos. Ich versehe die mit Beschreibung und Keywords und lade diese per FTP hoch. So wie das schon mit tausenden von Fots in den letzten Jahren gemacht habe.   Seit neusten habe ich das Problem, das wenn ich diese einreichen will, mir zwar angezeigt wird, dass diese erfolgreich eingereicht sind, aber nicht auf  der Seite geprüft auftauchen, sondern wieder bei Neu sind.   Ich habe das schon mit Safari und Firefox getestet.   Ideen?   VG   [Moderator moved the thread to the correct forum]

Hello everyone,My first post! I have been a contributor for a while now. Today I noticed I could not submit more photos (the button is greyed out) and it seems I have either exceeded my limit (what is the limit?) for today or I have too many photos for review. HOWEVER, I checked and I have only 13 under review. THEN I clicked on them and they all have been there for somewhere between 5 and 12 months! From my understanding, it should not take more than 8 weeks to review, so what do I do here?I sent a support ticket, but that was a week ago and no reply so far. Any suggestions?Thank you

BonjourJ'espère être au bon endroit. Je vous explique la situation. Le hasard a voulu que je tombe sur une proposition d'acheter d'un poster d'une de mes photos de mon portfolio. Cette photo n'a bien sûr jamais été achetée. L'image vient très clairement du site Adobe.Ma question : Le site "Abposters.com est-il partenaire avec Adobe, ce qui expliquerait que 2 de mes photographies y figurent (et avec un partenariat, tant qu'ils ne font pas de vente, je ne suis pas payé) ou y a-t-il vole d'images sur le site ?Je suis assez perdue et surprise de ma découverte.Je m'excuse si ma question n'a pas sa place ici.

Good morning lately many photos are discarded due to quality problems.Since it had never happened in the past can you tell me exactly what are che problems un detect on the images?In the last year I changed camera...

Hello everyone,I’m still a bit confused about choosing the correct asset type when submitting generative AI images to Adobe Stock.In my opinion, many AI-generated images (such as living room interiors, furniture, or real-world objects) look realistic at first glance, but upon closer inspection, there are often subtle AI artifacts - for example in lighting, textures, or overall visual quality - that may not fully match high-quality camera photography.Because of this, I’ve been consistently submitting these AI images as Illustrations, even when the subject itself is real and appears photorealistic. My reasoning is that choosing “Illustration” feels safer, since I’m unsure whether the image truly qualifies as “looks like it was captured with a camera.” My questions are: Is this approach incorrect or against Adobe Stock policy? Or should AI images that look realistic still be submitted as Photos, even if there is a slight AI look upon closer inspection? I’d really appre

Buenas tardes Primero de todo quiero desearos un Feliz Año Nuevo 2026, en el que reine la calma, la alegría y la prosperidad para tod@s . ¡A ver si nos compran muchas imágenes! Mi pregunta es cómo podemos dar más visibilidad a nuestras imágenes para tener más ventas, si hay algún modo que dependa de los colaboradores... UN cordial saludo     [moderator deleted a nonsense link.]

Hello Forum,  I tried to upload some of my pics to the Adobe Stock for the very first time. I am mainly into astro photography and thought the adobe stock could be a nice place to earn at least a bit of money with that  niche of a hobby.So I was very upset to got 12 of my first 13 images rejected for quality issues. And yes there is one i maybe can understand that due to some noise on a widefild pic take at very low light. But there are some deep sky, sun and moon shots I think the quality is good.And yes real astrophotography has some grain and flaws from time to time but that also was the reason I send them in under the "Science" category. I add one moon, sun and deep sky shot and maybe someone can tell me whats the reason the might be rejected. If it is for minor focus issues when pixel peeping or grain than maybe adobe stock isnt the right place for me.  GreetingsAndreas 

Hello,Greetings from me!I am a contributor to Adobe Stock. I am facing a problem a lot, and that is "Similar content in our collection". This problem is being shown in about 80 percent of the files in my account and being rejected. But when I prepare and upload a new file, I first check whether it has been published before the similar one, and then upload the file. While checking, I see that there is no exact or slightly different file that has been uploaded before. But my file is still rejected. This has happened not once but many times. Which is very sad. You may know how much time it takes to prepare a file completely. But if at the end of the work, if you see it damaged, then your mind becomes very bad and there is a reluctance to work.I hope the contributor team will look into this in a positive light.Thank you.

Wie ist euer Verhältnis zwischen allen Bilder im Portfolio und effektiven Downloads? Ich habe zb 770 Bilder und 398 Downloads (51,2%) . Diese Downloads betrifft aber nur 168 Bilder (21,6%) . Das heißt von 770 Bildern sind 602 noch nie downgeloadet worden. Ich habe einen Mix aus Fotos, Illustrationen und Vektoren. Wie ist diese Performance zu bewerten?    [Moderator moved the thread to the correct forum]
