How many active assets do contributors have?

How many active assets do contributors have? Is it normal to submit 20-40 assets from the same photo set? Is it considered spam? Recently, I started posting more content on my page, and I’ve already had 1,500 AI-generated photos accepted in just one month. Now, I have a total of 3,516 approved assets, with another 413 currently under review. I don’t have many downloads yet, even though I believe my images are of decent quality, as there aren’t many similar photos available. However, I’m worried about the future and unsure how to avoid the risk of getting my account suddenly shut down after putting in so much effort to grow my portfolio. Should I be scared or concerned about this? 

 

Can I continue submitting assets without worrying about facing the same issues as other contributors? Or should I submit fewer assets? Generally, I upload a maximum of 20 images in the 2:3 aspect ratio and another 20 in the 3:2 aspect ratio, totaling 40 images from the same set (generated using the same prompt). I aim to grow my channel to at least 10k assets, and then I’ll assess the situation based on how sales are going. Is it possible for me to reach 10k AI assets?

 

Most have a quite large portfolio, with over 100 pages of AI assets, while I’ve only reached 36 pages of AI assets. Can I continue doing the same work as before? Currently, I have an acceptance rate of over 55%, which has increased over time I’m not sure exactly what my acceptance rate is, but I’ll probably achieve 90% when I have at least 10,000 accepted photos and as few rejections as possible

    And when will I be banned? Can I be banned if from now on I upload 3-4 images from the same set? If I behave and follow the rules from now on, is there still a chance I could be banned because of my past actions and the images I’ve uploaded previously? I want to be a user who follows the rules.

    They won't give you advance knowledge of that. They will ban you, and then you will need to contact them, and then eventually, they will give you a chance to cure your account.

    Read the instructions in my link:

    As a general rule, don’t submit more than three significant versions of a single motif, unless the complexity of the image calls for more. We’ve found that having a small number of versions can help contributors achieve commercial success.

     

    And yes, you could be banned for past actions if you do not correct them now.

    So read the rules and understand them.

    Spamming the database with too many similars is one of the frequently cited reasons for accounts being suspended. Submitting 40 from the same prompt definitely meets the definition of too many similars. Read Adobe's guidance on this subject in the help pages. There now ~177 million AI assets in the database which is a lot of competition, and that is probably why you haven't achieved a lot of sales. Search in the Buyer portal for some of your images using the keywords on your assets and you'll see what your competition is. If your assets don't appear in the first few pages of search results, buyers will never see them.

      I’m not the only one uploading many similar images. I’ve seen plenty of contributors who have 20-30 nearly identical images. They’re not exactly the same, but they belong to the same prompt. With just 2-3 images, you wouldn’t even have a chance to appear with a single image on the first page, so no one would ever find you

      I have uploaded like this so far and haven't had any issues yet.


      By @Vision350771902ejx

      That may come. Let me just say this: Adobe is not giving you a warning before striking down an account. It just happens. I know of an account with 60k assets, before the account got blocked.

      quoteI'm not the only one doing this.

      By @Vision350771902ejx

      That user reported that there were many others getting blocked the same day as 30 of their peers with 30k-90k of assets, according to this contributor.

      But I upload more images because I don't know which ones will be accepted. Let's say that out of 10, 4 might get accepted. From a quality standpoint, not all of them may be accepted, and I can only check them visually. I don't have special programs to detect artifacts or other quality issues. 


      By @Vision350771902ejx

      You do not need special programs. You need to check them visually at 100% of size. Artefacts will be seen at that size, it's how moderators see them. You also need to inspect the logic: a straight line is a straight line, so if it gets hidden because of a front object, the line has to continue as expected. A 60% rejection rate is too high.

      There are hundreds of thousands of images. If you had only 3-4 images in a specific niche, you simply wouldn't stand out and would be uploading images for nothing. If you have around 20-40 images, you at least have a better chance that at least one will appear on the first pages.


      By @Vision350771902ejx

      You forget that the algorithm favours prior sales, considers the image age and your overall success.

       

      Whatever your reason for your initial post is, alone the fact that you fear that you could get banned, but the fact that you say in the same breath that it is not possible to stick to the rules reveals a lot.

       

      We don't see your pictures here, and I won't check your account. If you think you are fine, and all is working fine for you, go ahead. If you think you are breaking the rules, correct this, before getting banned. There will be no mourning.


      Man, I want to correct myself. I want to do everything right. I want to reach a portfolio of 10k in a few months, but without getting banned. If from now on I make sure not to upload more than 4 similar, almost identical images, is there a chance that I will be fine? Who do you think would enjoy uploading a 10k image portfolio only to find out their account was banned? I don’t think anyone would.

      There is at least anecdotal evidence suggesting that submitting an excessive number of AI assets within a small amount of time will get accounts suspended. Submitting a large number of assets similar to one another, along with poorly edited assets, may be the root cause, but we don't know for sure. Images that are similar to each other should be limited to three. Just speculation on my part, but since assets are reviewed by different moderators over a given period of time, they may be unaware of the number of similar images are being submitted until notice is finally taken.

      You even double posted. That tracks.
