Stock Contributors

I’ve noticed that the Adobe Stock marketplace is getting more competitive every day, especially with similar content issues. While I always create designs based on my own unique concepts, it sometimes feels like the system flags them as “similar” because the market is already so crowded with comparable themes.I put a lot of effort into making sure my templates are original, but when the market is heated with so many uploads, even different ideas can appear close. I think this is a big challenge for many contributors who are trying to stand out with their own style.It would be helpful if Adobe could consider ways to better recognize originality in design concepts, even when they fall under popular categories. That way, contributors who genuinely create unique content won’t get discouraged by similarity rejections.What do you all think—have you experienced the same situation?

A few months ago, my Adobe account was blacklisted due to an accidental operation, and now this issue has caused my Fotolia image-selling account to be unable to log in. Please help me log in.

Dear Adobe Stock Contributor Support Team, I hope this message finds you well. Recently, I received an email from Adobe Stock informing me that I have been granted a contributor bonus. However, I noticed that the bonus has not yet been added to my account. Could you kindly look into this issue and let me know when I can expect the bonus to appear? My contributor account details are as follows: Name: SANTI BANU Contributor ID / Email:＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

Hello Adobe Team and Community, My Adobe Stock contributor account (linked to email: [SENSITIVE INFORMATION REMOVED BY MODERATOR] has been deactivated. I received a deactivation notice due to issues with Generative AI content, but I have not received a clear explanation of the specific reason. I already sent my appeal email on 09 July 2025 and a follow-up on 016-july-2025, and I also submitted the “Contact Us” form, but unfortunately, I still have not received any response. I have carefully reviewed the Generative AI submission guidelines and I now fully understand the requirements (avoiding repetitive content, accurate titles/tags, proper releases, and correct AI labeling). I am committed to following these rules strictly if I get another chance. Could someone from Adobe Contributor Relations please check the status of my appeal and provide me with an update? Thank you for your time and support. Best regards, [PERSONAL DETAILS REMOVED BY MODERATOR]

J'ai déjà écrit dans ce forum des contributeurs pour parler de mes problèmes de révision de certaines de mes photos et je reviens une fois de plus sur le sujet car j'ai contacté à plusieurs reprises Adobe mais je reçois systématiquement des réponses automatiques en m'indiquant qu'en ce moment et, compte tenu du nombre d'envois, les durées de révision peuvent être rallongées. Or, me concernant, j'ai des photos qui sont en attente depuis 8 mois actuellement mais cela fait près de 2 ans maintenant car je les ai envoyées en novembre 2023 puis supprimées et renvoyées à 3 reprises. Le problème est qu'à ces photos et au fil de mes envois, certaines nouvelles se sont rajoutées et j'en suis maintenant à 120 photos qui stagnent et certainement pour longtemps. Pourtant, j'ai envoyées environ 500 photos très récemment qui ont été traitées pour 90% d'entre elles en 24 ou 48 heures !!!!Peut être qu'un humain chez Adobe lira ce post et pourra enfin régler mon problème.

この写真を28MBで審査に出したのですが、品質の問題により却下されました。他にもドアップの動物の写真を載せていて、それらも却下されました。こちらは25MBです。ピントはまつげと、瞳に合っています。ドアップはいけないという理由なのでしょうか。それとも画像の明るさやほかの理由でしょうか。みなさまのアドバイスをお受けしたいです。

I’m new to selling photos and want to gain my first experience. After many hurdles, I finally registered a firm and created a contributor account with Adobe Stock (as a trial). With my first upload I immediately saw the warning: no recognizable people and no private property…But every photo taken from the street can contain such elements… Is Adobe stricter than the usual panorama freedom rule in Europe (guaranteed by law) , or are they simply referring to those same regulations? Actually, every country may have its own rules. Should I take this Adobe warning literally, or can I upload everything that local laws allow?What about landscape photos with villages in valleys? Those are also private property… I really want to understand the restrictions to do not break them... Thanks!

Hallo zusammen, ich möchte editorial content einreichen. Beispiel: eine riesiger Häuserblock in China, der den Mega-Baustil dort recht gut wiedergibt. Vermutlich ist das Bild nicht durch die Panoramafreiheit gedeckt, weil es nicht von öffentlichem Grund aus gemacht wurde. Daher ist mir klar, dass ich es nicht als reguläres Stockbild einreichen kann. Nun sehe ich hierfür mit den entsprechenden Einschränkungen noch eine Bereitstellung als editorial. So weit, so gut. Jetzt kommt es: bei der Einreichung fragt ein Text der beiden Checkboxen, ob alle notwendigen Rechte zur Einreichung vorliegen. Ist durch das Anwählen der Editorial-Box diese Klausel nun zu interpretieren als "alle notwendige Reche im Editorial-Rahmen"? Alles andere würde m.E. keinen Sinn machen. Das Anhaken der "Rechte-Ok-Box" und der Editorial-Box würden sich ja andernfalls ausschließen ... oder? Denn wenn ich für alle enthaltenen Elemente Freigaben hätte, würde ich ja die Editorial-Klausel nicht benötigen. Oder muss hier g

Hello All,as I'm starting to upload my interior design images to Adobe, I would like to ask you to understand quality issues reason - here is one of the rejected photo due to that reason. Could you try to help me understand why?

Problem with Phone Number Verification in Adobe Stock Contributor AccountHello, I’m trying to register as an Adobe Stock contributor but I cannot complete the phone number verification.I already entered my phone number, but the system keeps showing an error and I cannot continue the registration.Is there any alternative way to verify my account without using a phone number?I really want to start contributing.Thank you for your help. 

I created this design by myself in Photoshop, but it was rejected due to a missing generative AI flag. What can I do for this to solve this problem? 

So, recently, for the last 200 or so images (transparent png, jpg, illustrations), i started to get a lot of Similar content in our collection.Any insight on what is triggering this, i'm starting to think this is some kind of automatic process. And the content that i sumbit is not a collection or one type. Could they be giving the wrong rejection reson?

How to get additional bonuses when inviting people to join Adobe contributor?   [moderator detached this from unrelated post]

The work was rejected due to "Quality Issues." Please help me understand the reasons.

Is there a problem with the website? It can't upload videos. I already tried uploading, but it’s been loading for a really long time and nothing happens — it just keeps spinning. Is anyone else experiencing this?

"Hi, I uploaded a batch of files to Adobe Stock. A small portion has been reviewed and rejected as ‘Similar content’, but the majority of my files have been pending for more than 10 days with no approvals at all.Is this normal for the review process, or should I contact support about it?"

Is there any way I can get a reasonable idea of exactly which images or keywords I should avoid so I can protect myself from intellectual property issues — like any websites, articles, or something like that?

I didn’t receive any bonus. During the 12-month period I had about 600 files and 20 downloads. I’m always unlucky.Does everyone get a bonus or is it like me?

my account got 17 custom dawnlaod in a same time i am worry about my account please help me what i can do

I'd love to get some feedback on these pictures, can you let me know why they would have been rejected? Thanks in advance!

Like in topic I got rejcetions of this photos, because their are too similar to what they have: and a few days later they acceptet this: so they don't have any rules for accepting that and it all depends on the mood of a reviewer? xd   [moderator removed abuse]

I made sure there are no recognizable faces, logos, branded items, or any other items outlined in Adobe's terms for intellectual property. Any remaining legible text is totally generic without any identifiable information. They were still refused. I really like these photos - they're taken in popular a public park and scrubbed for anonymity, so would love to hear if anyone knows why these were refused for IP violation.
