Stock Contributors

Hi Everyone, Heads up! I find it hard to believe that it's been almost a year since the nomination process began for the Adobe Stock Free collection. Starting tomorrow, June 7 some of you will have the opportunity to re-nominate photos that are currently in the Free collection, or to nominate new photos for consideration. The window to nominate your photos will be open until June 22. If you do want to nominate photos for consideration, I recommend you sign into the contributor portal tomorrow to take care of this. As before, we will be paying 5 credits for each photo approved for the Free Collection after the nomination window is closed. Photos that are approved will be in the Free collection for 1 year with a non-exclusive commitment.    There was a slight deviation to the agreement that you will see tomorrow. In 2023, when the nomination process starts up again, Adobe will have the right to nominate the assets that are already in the Free collection for 2022 for considerati

Hello,Since June 30 my account has been completely blocked from submitting new files.I have no pending files in review, and the only response I have received from Adobe Stock Contributor Support was a generic message stating that "submission limits depend on various factors".It has now been well over a month without any further reply or explanation, despite me following up. I currently have over 6,000 approved files in my portfolio and have always followed the contributor guidelines.What is the reason for this block and a specific timeframe for when it will be lifted? The lack of communication is extremely frustrating, and it prevents me from keeping my portfolio active.Could you give me any advice, please?Ula

Hi everyone,My image was recently rejected by Adobe Stock with the reason "Quality Issues." I’d really appreciate your help identifying what specifically might be wrong so I can improve future submissions.Here is the description I submitted with the photo:"Aperol Spritz cocktail with orange slices and ice cubes in a wine glass, served on a wooden block with crushed ice. Refreshing summer drink, perfect for bars, menus, and lifestyle use."I’ve reviewed the image, but I’m not entirely sure if the issue is with sharpness, exposure, noise, or something else. I'd be grateful for any constructive feedback.Thank you in advance!File ID: 1630548251Filename: IMG_8697.jpg

I recently received a notice that my Adobe Stock contributor account has been blocked due to a terms violation. I would like to understand what specific issues led to the block and what steps I can take to appeal or reinstate my account. Could you please guide me on how to resolve this matter and regain access to my account?

I’m feeling quite confused about Adobe Stock’s “quality issue” rejection and I’ve been struggling to fully understand what it really means.From the community, I’ve learned about several possible causes, such as image distortion, blurriness, poor lighting, or objects with incorrect shapes. However, I often receive rejections for “quality issues” even when my images don’t seem to have any of these problems.This has been a persistent challenge for me, and I’m becoming increasingly frustrated. I would greatly appreciate advice from experienced contributors on how to overcome this issue. 

Hello Adobe Stock Community, I recently submitted an image to Adobe Stock, but it was unfortunately rejected. I would appreciate any advice or insights on why this might have happened. Could someone help me understand the common reasons for rejection or share tips on how to improve my submissions? I’m eager to learn and improve for future submissions, so any feedback or guidance would be greatly appreciated! Best regards,M.P.S.Jayathilaka

Hello Adobe Stock team,I requested my first payout on  July 29, 2025 , to my Payoneer account. Today marks 10 business days since the request, but the payout status is still showing as "Pending" in my dashboard. How long might it take to receive my payment?I would really appreciate any insights or help. Thank you in advance!

I am very confused about Adobe Stock's 'quality issue' and I am struggling to understand and learn more about it as well,I still don’t fully understand all the reasons behind this. From the community, I’ve learned about several possible causes, such as distorted images, blurry or dark photos, objects not having the correct shape, and so on. However, in many cases, I see that even though my images do not have these issues, they are still being rejected for “quality issues.”I’ve been struggling a lot to overcome this problem, but I’m feeling extremely frustrated. Therefore, I’m seeking advice from experienced contributors. I’m also uploading five files—please let me know exactly what quality issues these five images have.Thank you so much all.

Dear Adobe Stock Support, I hope you are doing well. I requested a payment from my Adobe Stock contributor account on 28/07/2025, but I have not yet received the payment. As per your policy, payments are usually processed within 7 to 10 business days, but this time has already passed. Could you please check the status of my payment?

Hello everyone, I found my photo on the internet. This photo was only sent to Adobe Stock and it has zero sales. Thanks for any comments.Alex

Hello,I want to clarify, is it allowed for two separate accounts, one belonging to me and one to my brother, to be created and maintained on different computers but using the same internet connection?Thank you.

Hello, I hope everyone is doing wellI have a question I already have a contributor account where I mainly sell, vectors and Ai generated images. So it's a pretty messy stock account. Recently I have been thinking about polishing my portoflio with high quality illustrations on a different contributor account and eventually get enrolled in the premium collection. Am I allowed to have another account? 

I receive emails daily for the photos that have achieved the highest sales, but I do not see the money added directly to my account. How long does it take for the money for the highest-selling photos to be paid to me in my account? The number of downloads is also not shown in the statistics.

In my opinion, these are the most important modifications that must be made in Adobe Stock to make it much better. Before contesting the opinions, read them first and accept them. Certainly, you also suffer from problems and want solutions to them. If you agree that you want amendments to these points as well, please add a vote for this post, or just copy it and try to suggest some of these ideas to the moderators if you are able to reach them, perhaps at least one point will be resolved.--- --- --- --- --- --- --- First, more customization for the portfolio: The Portfolio in Adobe needs more customization, and you must add at least two lines to describe yourself and the work that you do, or make it possible to display a way to communicate with you. The problem with this step is that Adobe will not want you to communicate with someone outside the site because it will lose the percentage of profit, so we move to the second point. Secondly, it would be good to add the poss

Good afternoon, I have a doubt about the end of Windows 10. The Windows 10 support will end on October 14, 2025, I wonder if I will can continue sending files by FTP to Adobe after the end of the support, or if I will can continue to send for a while and later this time I will not can to send files. it is an important doubt that I want to clarify, thanks.

传了10多张图片，均因质量问题被拒绝

Why this AI generated image does not meet quality standards? I am new here and cannot understand the reason. Pls help

Hi everyone!Fairly new here, I just want to talk about how is everyone's workflow, strategies and how do they come up with the idea and reason to make such content to stand out. Just tell me your thought process and what makes you think that piece of work will succeed.For me I been researching a lot on how to make better content and not useless images that nobody will use (I only use AI). My current "Content Making Strategies" are:1- SEARCH: Simply search Adobe Stock, look what market gaps there are for example if an image or term has around UNDER 10,000 results I try to submit a few images in that section. I need opinions on this, how many results are "TOO MUCH" or "DON'T BOTHER SUBMITTING ANYMORE" do you all consider to be a lot?2- USE CASE: But yourself in the buyer's shoes, just like that one popular video of "sell me this pen" if said buyer doesn't need that pen or has no use case for it, it wont sell. I try to think of how will this piece of content I made be used for example a Y

Hello everyone,is it possible to sell pictures generated by Bing's Image Creator on Adobe Stock? I found contradictory informations. Which generators are suitable?Thank you very much for your help.J.

Hello, I have 3 of my vector images rejected recently all for the same reason: SIMILAR CONTENT IN OUR COLLECTION. File ID: 1623399449 When I went though almost 4,000 search "yellow pear tomato" results, I found only 4 were actual tomato. The rest were simply "pear," not even tomatoes. Tomato and pear are totally different.  File ID: 1623419572Out of almost 140,629 search results "set of tomato varieties", I found only aroung 30 were colorful tomato varieties like mine.  File ID: 1623362429Out of 159 search "San Marzano tomato" results, I only found around 12 actual San Marzano tomatoes.  I didn't find many similar images to mine after those searches. For this reason, I am not sure if this rejection stands. Could anyone help me please.
