Question

Premium photos

Hello,

Many images from Premium are really good, however, there are also surprisingly many weak images that are marketed Premium!

I have uploaded an example here, in the image search in Premium there were 3 images, these I compare here with my, also offered at Adobe Stock images.

My question:
Why do my images have no chance to get into the premium sector, other providers get into the premium sector with worse images?

In the premium sector the best images should be able to be offered!

I wonder, how are the premium images selected?

Please create the opportunity to apply for the premium sector with outstanding top photos, i.e. photos that deserve it, for mutual benefit!

Respond please!!! So the cooperation makes no sense for me anymore!!!

With many greetings,

Jürgen Kottmann

We, your efellow Contributors, are not able to advise how to get invited to be a Premium Contributor. You say that "cooperation makes no sense for me anymore". What has changed since you initially agreed to be a Contributor  ?

At the beginning of my cooperation with Adobe Stock, I did not realize that even the best and highest quality images in the highest resolution are partly given away by Adobe and sold at extremely low prices!
For very many of my pictures, partly photographed with high effort and best technology, I get 0.36€.
Ultimately, this is for me only a loss business!

I have no idea why Adobe sells very good photos so far below value!

Nach wie vor werden noch immer Premium Bilder angezeigt.

Grundsätzlich finde ich eine Premium Bilder – Sparte sehr gut, aber nur wenn die Premium Fotos auch wirklich außergewöhnlich gut sind!

 

Die Voraussetzungen für Premium Fotos sollten sein:

 

1: es werden nur sehr gute Fotos zugelassen – derzeit nicht erfüllt

2: die Verschlagwortung sollte sehr gut sein – derzeit nicht erfüllt

3: es sollte eine Professionelle Arbeitsweise erkennbar sein – derzeit nicht erfüllt

3: es werden Fotos und nicht Fotografen zu Premium ausgesucht – derzeit nicht erfüllt

 

Warum meine Anstrengungen, warum melde ich mich zu diesem Thema?

 

Die Verschlagwortung unzähliger Fotos bei Adobe Stock ist teilweise Absurd und völlig falsch!

 

Es wird nicht zwischen Fotos und Bildern erzeugt mit KI unterschieden!

 

Für einen Bildsuchenden wird es immer schwieriger die richtigen Fotos zu finden weil unzählige falsche Bilder angezeigt werden und das wird immer schlimmer!

 

Es sollte sich etwas tun bei ADOBE! Ich habe den Eindruck: bei Adobe lässt man es einfach so weiterlaufen wie bisher, es rechnet sich.

 

Aber, wenn ich professionell arbeite, kann ich das denn nicht auch von meiner Bildagentur verlangen?

Adobe curates premium collection content from select sources only.  We do not know what criteria they use.  It could be based on sales volume, reputation or some other factors. We just don't know.

 

There's an old axiom in bowling: Just make your spares and the strikes will take care of themselves. 🙂

For now, the collections of premium images come from a relatively small group of artists and agencies by invitation only.

If you only have a portfolio in the standard collection, you won’t see price tiers when you submit files.
