I haven't received any feedback about my photos

[rodrigomagana]

I have uploaded many photos during the last months and I haven't received any feedback.

At the begining I tried to upload 100 photos, 20% were rejected and the rest have been pending for several months. Then I tried to upload few images, and the same, the have been there for a while, what can I do?

This image will certainly be rejected because Adobe doesn't accept black and white conversions. Have you read all of the Adobe stock help pages?

If images become stuck in the queue and not reviewed after months of waiting, there's really nothing you can do except delete and resubmit.

That's is weird since I have uploaded several images like this and they were accepted previously. Besides the rest of my pictures are in color and they have the same issue. I will try to delete and resubmit.

Thank you!

When you re-submit them, rename the file names. I've learned from experience that if you don't change the title, they will just get stuck in the queue again.

Got it, thanks!

Black and white? The general rule is: when it is in colour, it can be coverted to black and while. If it is in black and white, it can't be converted. 

Pictures stuck in the moderation queue, however, is a different issue. Many of us have that issue.

Customers don't want to pay for B&W images. Color gives them more flexibility for use in multiple projects.  If the project designer asks for colorization or color removal, customers can do that after purchase.

Try re-submitting assets individually without the help of bulk uploaders.

An 80D can do colour photos. There is no reason to develop this as a bw. If you shoot in JPEG, you should stop that, and change to shooting raw. And in addition, the picture is heavily underexposed. 

You see, there are a lot of reasons to refuse this image. That it is stuck in the moderation queue is, however, a different issue.

I always have mixed feelings about this black and white issue. On one hand, I would not recommend that anyone submit black and white assets. On the other hand, I've had...I dunno...80 to 100 or more black and white assets accepted...and 40 sales of b&w (which includes multiple sales of the same images, which, admittedly, is still well below my sales of color assets). Anyway. When it comes to the whole similar content issues, I'm almost ready to concentrate on black and white these days just to avoid similars!

Well, there are rules as laid out in the documentation, and there are moderators that ignore them.

I suppose. Then again, there are over 45 million black and white images following a search for same. So maybe submitting black and white will still result in "similar content." 🙂

Sometimes I would like to be in the head of a moderator...
