Halftone vector illustrations what is wrong?

[ugguggu]

Hello! Could you tell me, please, what is wrong with these halftone vector illustrations? Them consists of ideal circles, I groupped them, and I tryed to do a Compound Path, but my file was still rejected. At the same time, these files were accepted by other stocks, and I have other works accepted on Adobe stock. Thanks!

You should avoid such modifications as it is not what Adobe stock is looking for. Are they vector illustrations or vector illustrations containing bitmaps? What was the rejection reason?

Other stock providers may refuse or accept what they want. Adobe is not bound by their decision (!), and they have their moderation team. Adobe's turf, Adobe's rejections. Enjoy the sales from the other sites.

Thanks for your opinion! They are absolutely vector illustrations. I'm not just mentioning other stocks, if the files was not accepted anywhere, it would be 100% clear that something is wrong, but now I want to find out what exactly does not suit Adobe stock.

What was the rejection reason? - Quality issues, but I can't agree with any point, I check and prepare each file the same way.

- A vector file contains a bitmap/bitmap image, and vector files should not contain raster elements.
- The compression ratio was set too high for the JPEG preview file, so there were problems with textures in the file.
- The resolution of the JPEG preview file must be at least 5000 X 3000 (15 million pixels)
- When exporting a vector file to JPEG, anti-aliasing was not used, so there were problems with lines in the JPEG file.

Quality issues also mean other things. Adobe should change the text, as most of it is misleading and obsolete. The following points can no more lead to a refusal, as Adobe is generating the JPEG preview on their own now:

- The compression ratio was set too high for the JPEG preview file, so there were problems with textures in the file.
- The resolution of the JPEG preview file must be at least 5000 X 3000 (15 million pixels)
- When exporting a vector file to JPEG, anti-aliasing was not used, so there were problems with lines in the JPEG file.

But there are still many other problems that may result in a “quality issues” refusal:

— vectorized bitmaps

— vector errors in the asset

— leaving bitmaps in the asset

— etc.

Oh! Thanks for the answer, I did this effect in Inkscape, and then saved it through Adobe illustrator, and I thought that since it was originally a vector, everything would be fine, but apparently something needs to be changed.

For your second: there should be no fake transparency, and this space between the hand and the device should be transparent.

That was the idea, the style of halftone collage, like cut out of a magazine

I suppose the Moderator sees that as a flaw rather than a feature....

Bad idea. If the buyer wants to do that, they can easily do that, but they may have more difficulties getting rid of the fill when they need to.

P.S. Adobe illustrator through verification: Information - Objects - does not show any raster effects, nothing forbidden...
