Stock Contributors

Hi, I'm new on Adobe Stock, a lot of my photos were rejected because of quality issues, and I'd be very grateful if you could recommend me how to improve the quality of photos. Thank you in advance!

Hi everyone,First off, I am newbie in photography with zero experience but I have spare time and really keen to learn from experts here in this community. For trial purposes, I submitted my first ever two photos and as you can expect, they were rejected for quality. issues. I am pretty sure the image had more issues than that LOL. However, I am posting it here if anyone is kind enough to give constructive feedback on these photos for me to learn from pls? Your time is greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone!I have a question for the community: I’m a vector illustrator and I’m working on a 4-page brochure in EPS format, which includes both illustrations and text.However, I have a doubt: Adobe recommends converting all text to outlines, but I’ve noticed that some official Adobe templates contain editable text, which I find very useful for the buyer.My questions are:Is it possible to upload a vector file with editable text?If so, should I use copyright-free fonts (for example, from Google Fonts)?If I use a font, do I need to include it with the EPS file? (As far as I know, during the upload process it’s only possible to submit .EPS or .AI files.)Is there a link for contributors on Adobe where I can get clarification about this?Thanks a lot for any clarification!

"I didn't quite understand the type of moderation the moderator was doing to remove unique content, which is also a technical issue.

Greetings,I have recently been selected for inclusion into the "Missions" program. This is somewhat new to me but I have researched it and I want to submit too it but I have a question concerning intellectual property. This inquiry is for both the Missions as well as stock in general. That is, can I submit photos that contain IP if I blurr out the brand name/logos with a Gausian filter? Many thanks for any help!Cheers,Keith J. 

It will be great to have an Adobe Stock Contributor app. Being able to stay on top of pending images/videos, daily earnings, portfolio access, release forms, uploading, etc.   I will look at the Shutterstock Contributor app for inspiration; they do it well.   Is anyone working on this?   Thanks, Josh   [Moderator moved the thread to the correct forum]

Hello, does anyone know when the results will be available, which files were selected and which were not?

Hi all ,Can someone help me with this "PROPERTY RELEASE MISSING" problem here? I enlarged my photos to 200%, I still cannot find anything that can identify the property. To be honest, if weren't for my own records, I  would not recall where I took them. But, I get this wonderful rejection...again...

I have clicked on both Annual and Perpetual Free Collection — and submitted. Will this cause any problems or will it disable my free collection video permissions? Please confirm.Thank you.

Enviei algumas imagens de um ponto turistico natural, e recebi esta recusa! Não há possibilidade nenhuma de haver propriedade intelectual na imagem! a Adobe desinsentiva os colaboradores a enviar novas imagens pois não da possibilidade nenhuma de contestação da decisão. bem desagradavel isso.

How many file rejections can an account be suspended?

  Hi everyone, I’ve been trying to connect my Payoneer account to Adobe Stock for three days now, but I constantly get the Declined status with this error: “Payout Information not accepted. Please use a Payoneer account that is valid and unique to your contributor profile.”   What I’ve tried:   Connecting from different devices (laptop, phone) Clearing cookies and cache Trying multiple browsers Contacted Payoneer support – they confirmed that everything is fine on their side (and I got the confirmation about the added funding source)     Screenshots are attached. The system shows “Connecting…” at first, but always ends up as Declined. It looks like something is broken on the Adobe side.   Can someone from the support team help me or manually connect the account?   Thanks in advance for any help!      (moderator deleted attached images, was duplicate to the in-line images)

Hi, I've been wokring as Adobe Contributor for more than 7 years, and recently my works has been rejected due to either "Similar Contents" or quality problem.As for "Similar Contents", i refer to advice from this forum, and tried to make title as descriptive as possible, and searched for same contents on Adobe stock with my title, but still, i dunno why i keep on getting the same similar contents error (and some are illustration which are unique, i dun see the reason why it gets similar contents rejection) Recently, besides similar contents i got the rejection reason on low quality like soft focus etc, but... the thing is my work is flat illustration, it has nothing to do with filtering, soft focus etc.Can anyone please give me some guide on what's happening on Adobe Stock nowadays, review going on for weeks (sometimes month) , and being rejected massively.It caused a lot of time wasted after uploading hundreds and then being rejected almost 90% of them. Some example:Ill

My video was rejected: Santa Claus knocking on a festive door in the snow. File ID: 1760084312. During our review, we found that it contains elements that appear to be protected by intellectual property law. However, the video's theme is similar: Santa Claus, wearing a red suit and sack, knocks on the door of a cosy home in a snowy landscape with festive lights. File number: 712011169. in the foreground. Visually, they are different.

I haven't found anything like it, even one of my dogs has just improved with AI

💼 Subject: Concerns About Fraudulent Download Activity and Fair Treatment of Contributors --- 📨 Dear Adobe Stock Team, I am writing this letter as a long-time contributor who genuinely supports the Adobe ecosystem and values the opportunities provided through the Adobe Stock platform. However, I would like to express deep concern regarding the ongoing issue of fraudulent or “bomb” download activities that are increasingly affecting honest contributors. Over the past few months, numerous contributors — including myself — have experienced repeated patterns of suspicious downloads: Dozens of downloads from different countries within short timeframes, Identical earning amounts across transactions, Followed by sudden warnings, payout holds, or even unexpected account deactivations. While I completely understand Adobe’s responsibility to prevent fraudulent activities and money laundering, the current automated detection system seems to penalize innocent contributors inst

I have over 1000 images in my photo gallery. When submitting new images, I realize they are put in Que waiting to be approved. It is after they have been approved, that I'm not sure where to find the newly approved images in my gallery. The reason I want to know where to find the newly approved images is to add the images to the appropriate created Collection page I created for images. Thanks for any help.

I haven't found any similar ones, if you reject them like that, you can almost reject them all.

Hey everyone,I’ve noticed a sudden drop in downloads since the beginning of October. It’s strange because October is usually one of my better months after the summer slowdown. I’ve also seen some posts on the Adobe Community where customers mentioned problems downloading images, even with active subscriptions. Could this be affecting sales on our side too?Is anyone else seeing the same thing?Thanks for any insight! Ola

Im very disappointed this two pictures rejected because of similar content issueAre these two really similar content?   

 I haven't found any similar ones, you reject them like that, you can almost reject them all.

Trotz Filter: Nur Fotos, Ki-generierte Bilder ausschließen tauchen unzählige Ki-Generierte Bilder auf (Screenshot)!Viele Ki-Bildeinsender kennzeichnen ihre Bilder nicht und kommen damit durch!!! An alle, die noch fotografieren, sich eine teure Fotoausrüstung kaufen und viel Zeit in die Fotografie stecken:Wir schaffen uns ab! Jedenfalls ADOBE schafft den Verkauf von echten Fotos ab! Mit unseren Fotos werden wir, nicht nur hier bei Adobe, in absehbarer Zeit kein Geld mehr verdienen!!!Das ist den Verantwortlichen bei ADOBE egal, denn ADOBE verdient mit jedem verkauften Bild! Unsere echten Fotos werden zur Schulung für Ki-Bilder genutzt, immer mehr Ki-Bilder tauchen in Zeitschriften auf und die Ki-Bilder werden den echten Fotos immer ähnlicher!!!Inzwischen werden bei Ki-Bildern sogar Fotoähnliche Schärveverläufe wie bei einem echten Foto erstellt!Ich mache mir keine Hoffnung dass sich bei ADOBE etwas ändert, denn, wie gesagt, ADOBE verdient an jeden Bild!

I have a question, why does the upload limit keep decreasing? Previously, the limit was 300, then it dropped to 100, and now I can only upload a maximum of 22 assets. Is there a way to increase it again?
