Rejected for some strange reason

Hi,

I read complaints on another forum that, in addition to the long waiting time, many more photos are rejected. That is also the case with me. I can accept that Adobe have become stricter with checking.

But I also have a photo of a tower, two photos of  bridges in the Dutch city of Middelburg, and a windmill in the city of Veere, which were rejected because the photos resemble photos I've already submitted. While these are the only photos. I was even in those cities for the first time in my life!!!

The first and last two photos in the overview of rejected photos. I have read this complaint before. How is this possible?

Regards Thijs The Netherlands

Hello,

Are you talking about similar photos? Similar also means what is in the database, and not only in your collection.

    Hello

    That's not what they write in the rejection:

    However, during our check, we found that it resembles one or more other images you've already uploaded. Therefore, we cannot include this image in our collection.

    I've looked. There are some pictures of the windmill in Veere, which are somewhat similar. There are no similar photos of the tower and two bridges in Middelbug.

     

    Regards, Thijs

    Yes, the message is misleading; and it is possible that the Moderator has chosen the wrong reject code. If you believe your image is unique and of acceptable quality, I would suggest editing it just slightly and re-uploading by itself.


    So far I have always accepted disapprovals from Adobe. Now that there are more than before, I think that when the waiting times are back to normal, I will re-enter some photos. So not now. It's just frustrating to wait days to find out they've been rejected after all.
