Help needed regarding issue of

[me.mabdullah]

Hi,

Recently I submit bulk of images, now it has been reviewed but majority of images has rejected. These all rejected and Adobe gave the following possible reasons.

- Non compliant use of another artist’s name.

- Undeclared Generative AI Content.

- Content not compliant with overall guidelines

I don't think that my images were rejected due to first two reasons as these were not AI generated and not copied or inspired from other artist. So I want to know that what is the exact reason for rejection as there are hundreds of reasons in guidelines. I am also attaching the two different images in which one was accepted (the image with white chart) and other was rejected (the image with orange chart), This is only one example there are many others. Please help me to understand the rejection reason and also tell can I resubmit them.

Did you actually draw the image of George Washington yourself? If not, you can't use it in your designs.

Ben Franklin on the C note is fairly common on stock image sites.

I found this one on Adobe Stock

Apart from the ethical implications of using other people's artwork and calling it your own, that's a good way to get banned from Stock's Contributor program for violating IP. 

If the content is 100% original artwork, submit a signed property release by you as the artist.

You should tell us the header, not the stock text of the refusal. Adobe did not give you 3 possible reasons, but the statistically most probable reasons. but those reasons are not targeted to your asset.

Btw: your orange graph could also be refused for quality issues, as they are fully visible in your example:
