Non Compliant Images - Huh?

Hello, I recently had a few images rejected as being Non Compliant with a list of possible reasons.  I'm still rather new to this so I'm not sure what the non compliance is.  If anyone would be willing to take a look and educate me, I'd greatly appreciate it.  (And if the non compliance is that my pictures aren't any good, that's fine, your honesty will be appreciated.)

This is non compliant. Other errors as noted in the many post you got are also present. You need to address all the issues. The birds are highly overprocessed. But that is a quality issue.

A frame, a signature etc are reasons to refuse for non-compliance. This list is, however not exhastive. It may also be, that the moderator ticked the wrong refusal reason.

If you're trying to take commercial-ready Stock images with a low quality camera, chances are your images are not compliant with  Stock's minimum submission requirements. 

 

  • Image format: JPEG 
  • Color space: sRGB
  • Minimum image resolution: 4MP (megapixels)
  • Maximum image resolution: 100MP (megapixels)
  • Maximum file size: 45MB (megabytes)

Hi @Joseph289584536bjl ,

Non-compliant refusal usually has to do with not following the submission guidelines or if your files were refused and you resubmit without making the adjustments. All that I've come across in the forum so far are files that were previously refused and resubmitted without adjustments. Is that the case with you? There are other reasons for non-compliant refusals that you will learn of here.

 

Regards

Jacquelin

Nothing is really in focus in the photo of the birds, but this would normally result in a Quality issue. For the second photo, you've included a sign, which would be an intellectual property violation.

Thumbnails aren't big enough to work out what the problem might be.

Can you upload bigger images?

It could be due to your keywords.

There is also a possible problem with IP on the 'boardwalk' photo and quality issues with the bird photo.
