Hello, dear forum members. One image is rejected because of the similarity to the other. Is blue and yellow similar to purple? How then to create gradient backgrounds. Thank you very much for your help!

ther are 3.8 million "gradient backgrounds" in Adobe Stock. If you enjoy submitting, continue making backgrounds. If you want to sell something, choose another subject.

Doesn't Chinese New Year (aka Lunar New Year) begin in February?

 

That said, anything with a specific date will have a very short shelf-life. Nobody wants to read last week's newspaper.


By @Nancy OShea

The Chinese are flexible when dealing with us barbarians. They are doing calendars using our counting and months with their symbols starting on January first… 😉

 

But yes, their Spring Festival/New Year's celebrations are around February (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_New_Year).

 

My Chinese colleagues are doing Christmas parties like we do, and they are celebrating January first and wishing everybody a happy New Year. And they close offices for their New Year celebrations.

 


I'll take any holiday I can get.  🙂

 

OFF TOPIC:  We had zero trick-or-treaters at our door last night -- likely due to COVID.  Now we're stuck with a bowl of Halloween candy.  I wonder if chocolate bars will keep until next year.

I even wonder why you got accepted one of those images.

 

I do not know where the moderator saw the similarity, but the same refusal is also used for similarity to other contributors pictures.

Thanks for the reply. I made this gradient based on my own photo, so I had no idea that it could be similar to another work.

“Similarity” is a strange refusal every so often…
