My photos are not accepted

Report · May 27, 2023

Dear Adobe Stock Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to bring to your attention an issue I've been experiencing recently with the acceptance of my submitted images. Over the past few months, I've noticed a significant decrease in the number of my images being accepted, even though they were previously accepted without any problems.

I understand that Adobe Stock maintains high standards when it comes to image selection, and I appreciate the efforts taken to ensure quality and uniqueness. However, it seems that some of my images, which were previously accepted, are now being considered duplicates or not meeting the necessary criteria.

As a contributor, it is essential for me to have a clear understanding of the guidelines and expectations to improve my submissions and provide valuable content to the Adobe Stock community. I kindly request your assistance in clarifying any changes or updates that may have been made to the acceptance criteria, so that I can align my future submissions accordingly.

I value the opportunity to contribute to Adobe Stock and believe in its mission to provide high-quality visuals to users worldwide. Your guidance and support would be greatly appreciated in resolving this matter and ensuring a smoother experience for contributors like myself.

Thank you for your attention to this issue. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

As you may already know, this is a community forum and mostly fellow Stock Contributors participate here. We are happy to review a few photos and give some advice if you'd care for it.

Cheers!

Dear Adobe Stock Team,

This is a forum where you find fellow contributors. Adobe employees are very rarely using this forum, mostly to provide information about some changes. There is no information about quality requirements changes.

If they got accepted, and you delete them and resubmit, they get vetted again and there is no guarantee that they get accepted once more. If you do not delete the original, it is clear that they are duplicates.

As for guidance, I suggest you study the contributor user manual: https://helpx.adobe.com/lu_en/stock/contributor/user-guide.html

Thank you for your time.. The problem is not with the duplicate photos, but
the problem is that any of my new photos are no longer accepted

As indicated above, you'll need to upload here a few samples of the rejected images to allow community members to provide specific feedback on them.

You will need to post one or the other here, in the quality as submitted, so that we can have a look into them. The requirements are still the same. But it may be that Adobe enhanced the vetting quality.
