What is your title and keywords? Also I think you need a property release.

If any of the issues below are not an issue with regard to this image, then it is possible the moderator selected the wrong reason for rejecting it. This can happen on occasion.
Noncompliance
Non-compliant generative AI content:
Your content gets rejected, or in severe cases, your account may be suspended if you:
Files may also be considered noncompliant due to watermarks, inappropriate or irrelevant keywords or titles, or questionable or defamatory content. Also, if you get a reminder to provide or resolve a problem with a release and you resubmit the file without addressing the issue, we’ll reject it as noncompliant.
But that said, we can't be of direct help, as we are contributors like youself. We can only speculate.

I don't see any commercial value in this, sorry.
Stock already have 42 million Abstract backgrounds, far more than they will ever sell.
Before you submit more images, read the Stock Contributor Guide and search available Stock inventory to see Stock needs.
Adobe Stock customers expect real subjects with the highest visual and technical quality for use in commercial projects.

It was not a commercial appeal refusal. It was a generative AI refusal. Adobe will decide what they want.

@jacquelingphoto2017 Do they even have a "no commercial appeal" option or would that fall under "quality issues?"

There is a "No Commercial Appeal" option under the heading "Lack of aesthetic or commercial appeal"

Hi @Moon-Light ,
Your file is pretty, probably too pretty to be a vector, so you get a generative AI refusal (smiling). It is sad that these are happening to us when there is not a provision for appeal. Double-check your file for any error and resubmit it in a few day. If you get a non-compliant refusal for this file, let us know by replying on this thread.
This trump-up refusal is happening on a wide scale and many of us are affected, where-by our perfectly created works are refused with refusal reason that is far from reality. I had the same experience.
Please note: Posts on the fora are primarily monitored by end-users who are not Adobe staff members, but mainly fellow contributors, volunteers and customers. To speak directly to Adobe, click on the contact us on the "Contributor Account" page.
Thank you for the heads-up. Your post makes a difference.
Best wishes
Jacquelin

I have to agree with @Nancy OShea on this. It's only use that I can imagine would be as on wallpaper or desktop image on a computer. And this would be difficult to look at all day. If you are interested in designing wallpapers, I'd lead toward soft, pastel colors that compliment each other and that are easy on the eyes. This might have gone over well in the late psychodelic 60's, but not today. 🙂

As I said, let Adobe decide. I would buy it for multiple reasons and not use it for any of your named categories. Also, I can think of other commercial uses for it. that do not include any of your categories or mine. You need to understand that while a few of us like softer colors, there are many that like very bright colors and will find it useful. We are not marketers we are mainly suppliers and a few of us customers and hardly in a position to decide what will sell at Adobe and what wont. As a matter of fact, experienced marketers will tell you that there is no way to predict what will sell and that what you do not expect to sell are many times what's in demand. People buys for many reason, some of which has nothing to do with the product. If I did follow this forum there are many sales I get that I would not have gotten.
One other thing, this is called abstract art and many people likes abstract.
Regards
Jacquelin

I understand. But we can only speculate and try to help fill in the huge gaps left open from Adobe's less than specific or often times incorrect reasons for a rejection. And the OP can accept or reject our opinions. And I certainly agree that we have no idea what will and will not sell. It has certainly happened to me with a couple of images I had even considered removing from the queue but were subsequently accepted and sold.

Stock is a business, not an art gallery.
Competing with 42 million abstracts is futile. Nobody will find a tiny needle in a great big haystack.

Your refusal reason is not clear. Please give the heading of the refusal as communicated to you, not what you paraphrased of it.
Non-compliant normally means that the asset breaches one or more of the design recommendations, like no border, no signature etc. As you submitted here a PNG file, I suppose you also submitted a PNG file to the database. A PNG file needs to have a transparent background, your file obviously has none. That's non-compliance.
