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?

And another problem is when is 'handmade' illustrations like 3ds Max renders are rejected as 'AI generated'. And this became happening more and more often.

Would it help if you included something like "3D rendering of..." or 3D in your keywords? Or do you already do that?


Always. In the title and 5-10 tag variations. And even worse when its 3D compositing, if I render my own 3d model over my own photo - no chance, zero tolerance fro such content from the reviewers. At some point I just stopped doing this.

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.
