Quality Issues -- what's wrong with my images?

[bcoller]

I'm trying to find out why my most recent submissions have been rejected due to "Quality Issues" -- I've submitted plenty of these type of images before with success. No noise or bluriness present. Any idea what's going on?

It seems like Adobe is now using a button they call 'Quality Issues' quite randomly ...

[frhdom]

i've noticed that too

[Gerald267260046ck9]

Yes, I've begun experiencing the same thing. Previously, probably 95% or more of my photos have been accepted, but recently a number of photos that seem perfectly OK have been rejected. Adobe, could you please tell us what's going on?

[bcoller]

So frustrating! With no reason supplied, how are we ever supposed to fix and improve our images...

[Jill_C]

I don't see any quality issues in these, but I do think it would better to submit them as PNG's with a transparent background.

[oleschwander]

Yes but that's not a 'Quality Issue' problem.

[Jill_C]

I didn't say that it was...

[bcoller]

I'll certainly provide both options. Thank you for the suggestion!

[Jill_C]

You need only submit a PNG. Adobe will automatically create the jpg version.

I would agree with the moderators. Did you do cutout work? The exposure doesn't look right, and the shadows are weird.

[bcoller]

No, these images were not clipped, and the shadows present are natural. 

I have plenty of similar images that were approved and doing well...so I'm stumped. Just trying to figure out how I can resume uploading without immediately getting flagged.

Many of us are in the same boat. I submit a lot of portraits. Some get accepted, some get rejected for being too similar, but then are accepted after making some minor edits and revisiting my choices of keywords, or rejected a second time. It's the new normal on Adobe Stock, seemingly very random, and I hope eventually it improves a bit going forward. Adobe's latest announcement regarding minimizing the number of submissions based on certain criteria may be a step in that direction.

It is discolored & dog-eared. And there's no string or background to give it much context.
