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.

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.

But if you are very patient, files can get stuck in review for a year, like mine

I would start deleting and resubmitting assets then.

I guess that's what I'll have to do. I was just curious how long it might take in the end.

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)

There is a general upload limit. New accounts can have 50 assets in the waiting queue, older accounts can have up to 3000 assets waiting for moderation. IMHO, 3000 is too much.

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.

I think there might be some merit to your assumptions. I am very much in favor of Adobe adopting much lower submission limits, say 50-100 per Contributor, perhaps higher for those who have achieved significant sales and have a high overall acceptance rate. Since they seem to be reviewing AI submissions very quickly, that means Contributors can still add ~3,000 assets per months, which seems generous. This will discourage spamming of so many similars and encourage the AI Contributors to submit only their best assets.

I have the same problem as you. My assets used to be reviewed very quickly, but now they have been pending for several months. Is there any way to solve this issue?

Some contributors who submit AI are also experiencing this issue.

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.
