What's going on with Adobe Stock?
Because it takes so long for them to accept images, I'm almost giving up on Adobe. It's sad.

Part of the problem, I think, is that Adobe Stock is being swamped by gazillions of AI images. Even here, there are very few actual photos now, the rest being AI images.

What type of images are you submitting?

I am not sure if it's possible maybe they could do limit per day, for example 20 assets per day (I don't what will be good, just random number)

I mean something what you can send on the inspection per day, I have saw on this forum that someone said that he sent 2500 assets per day, and I understand that in this case inspectors can't find time for my 10 assetst


It might be my imagination, but I'm getting the feeling that accounts with an extreme number of AI assets under review do indeed get priority. For example, if a contributor submits 1000 assets in a day (more than likely unchecked and unedited), those 1000 assets get reviewed en masse by the moderators (1000 in/1000 reviewed all at once).

 

I try to maintain anywhere from 30 to 60 assets under review at any given time. Let’s say I start Monday out with 50 assets. By Friday, I’ve had, let’s say, 30 reviewed. I’ll submit 4 to 6 per day in an effort to keep up, perhaps leaving me with 25 by Friday. I’ll try to add more over the weekend (when I might only have 1 or 2 reviewed at most), to get back to 40 or so by Monday.

 

Point is, I’ve never been “cleaned out” in one fell swoop as some people who submit hundreds of AI assets at once are claiming. @Abambo  is correct: even though I submit AI and AI only, a limit of 50 to 100 per day (or even per week as far as I’m concerned) should be taken into consideration for AI.

Read some of the other posts here in the forum - this is one of the most frequently asked questions. Some Contributors are reporting review delays of 2-3 months, while others are reviewed right away. It's quite unpredictable. There's nothing we can do to hasten the review of our assets. Be patient.

If for some there are review delays of 2 to 3 months, while others are reviewed immediately, there is something wrong.

Sure. However, nobody knows why some assets get stuck in the moderation queue. 2 months is still good, however, as the announced waiting time is 8 weeks. I would start resubmitting after 6 months.
