We are all experiencing long delays, and there is nothing we can do to hasten the process. Be patient.

I might be wrong. Although I'm negatively affected by the review inefficiencies, in all fairness, I do not think prioritizing AI assets is the primary reason for the long review wait. If I am correct, there should be some visible improvement by the end of October. My contention is not the backlog. My contention is the fact that we are not treated equally. I would more go with the under-staff argument and the summer break suggestion, but I also believe that some reviewers who had already held on to older files for review are pulled to perform other temporary tasks. Again I say I might be wrong. This is my opinion and not the information dispensed by Adobe.

If they had just left in place the long-time "first-in/first-out" rule, we would all feel fairly treated, and there would be some predictability to the review process.

Hi @Jill_C ,

According to what I read, the rule is still in place although evidence says otherwise. I did post in one of these threads how to find it.

Best wishes

For what it's worth, while my reviews are up, my sales have been down a bit. All in all, I'd rather it be the other way around. 🙂

[Jill_C]

Sales are down this week due to the coming Labor Day holiday; last chance for summer vacations for many whose kids haven't gone back to school yet... Next week will be better 🙂

Kids here already went back to school.

[Jill_C]

Yes I think most school districts start back in August, but that won't stop people from traveling this weekend. Record breaking traffic jams are predicted.

Months long wait. I dont bother with this.

I have also been concerned about the delays issues. I post on Adobe, Shutterstock and Getty - the others may take a day or two, but I have files in Adobe waiting for over two months, it seems very odd indeed, and make you think if they are going out of business.

[Jill_C]

Adobe adds up to a million assets to the database each week. They're not going out of business. 

[franciscom78878261]

Thanks Jill, it made me think if only AI is required. I submit photos and I had stopped submitting assets for over a month, as I still have photos sitting there waiting for review for more than two months. I am going to start submitting again and see how it goes.

[Jill_C]

I carry on submitting 4-5 new photos on most days, even though some have to wait months to be reviewed, because the standard advice has always been "slow and steady". This will ensure that you will continue to receive a steady flow of reviews and acceptances - whenever they finally reach the head of the line !
