Need help with SIMILAR CONTENT rejection

Community Beginner ,
Aug 11, 2025 Aug 11, 2025

Hi,

I uploaded a color filled elements collection and it got approved.

I seperated each element into 8 files with different style, from colorful to hand drawn line art.

2 of them got rejected with this reason. My line art files are vector without background.

Can you please share your thought, what's wrong with my files?

Thank you!

As we have said, this rejection reason has increased over the last few months. We believe Adobe is trying to clean out their database. There is not much we can help with.

Try to refine the title and keywords. Make them unique accross all of your submissions. That may help.

You may try to resubmit. But be careful not to submit all refused assets in a row (if you have a considerable collection of those), but one after the other, to avoid being accused of spamming the system.

If it is an algorithm making the decision, avoid using Adobe's keyword suggestions too high up in your list of keywords.

If it is an algorithm making the decision


By @daniellei4510

Even if it's a human decision, an algorithm is doing the scoring. No one can search their database and find similar assets just by looking at them... in a correct time frame.
