Stock Contributors

I have a question about Adobe Stock's “Similar Content” rejection policy.While searching for the checkmark icon, I found several contributor profiles with many very similar assets, where only the color, position, or small details appear to be changed.For example:Contributor examples – Profile 1 Contributor examples – Profile 2 Contributor examples – Profile 3 Contributor examples – Profile 4I have personally submitted similar variations, but my files were rejected for “Similar Content.”I would like to understand how this policy is applied consistently. If these types of variations are acceptable, why are similar submissions from other contributors rejected?If these assets violate the Similar Content policy, could Adobe also review the examples above? Otherwise, could Adobe explain what specific difference makes those submissions acceptable while mine are rejected?I am not asking for other contributors to be penalized. I simply want to understand the review criteria and apply the same s

I uploaded this photo to Adobe, but they rejected it, and I don't know why. 

Hi everyone, hoping for real‑world advice from other contributors.My Adobe Stock contributor account got fully deactivated with this generic automated notice:We are writing to let you know that your Adobe Stock contributor account has been deactivated for suspicious activity. For more information on why your account may have been blocked see the Submission Guidelines.No exact violation given. I experienced two sudden 5‑10x earnings surges within the past two weeks, and the sales were mostly driven by aerial‑shot footage of the same type. I submitted a payout request roughly ten days ago, shortly before my account got deactivated.Some context about my portfolio and recent behavior: All my photos and video assets are 100% original self‑shot travel content. I can provide raw files and metadata for any asset for verification. This stock income is a vital source of funding for my daily life and travel‑photography projects. This unexpected deactivation has completely thrown my photography an

I have been looking at the Weekly Top Sellers section on Adobe Stock and noticed something I don't fully understand.Some contributors appear to have 100+ pages of content and around 1,00,000 downloads, while others have only 10 or fewer pages of content but still have around 1,00,000 downloads.How is this possible? Does the number of assets/pages have little relationship to the number of downloads?Are there particular factors that can cause a contributor's assets to receive significantly more downloads - such as content type, search ranking, keywords, customer demand, licensing type, contributor history, or the age of the assets?I would really appreciate an explanation from experienced Adobe Stock contributors about how these high-download contributors achieve such results.

Hi everyone,My abstract expressionism artwork was recently rejected by Adobe Stock. The reason given was the standard template for technical quality (artifacts, noise, or excessive filtering).Here is my technical workflow: The piece is a digital mixed media artwork with heavy industrial grunge textures and manual scratches. I upscaled the image using Upscayl 2.15.0 with the High Fidelity model. After that, I applied the Unsharp Mask filter in Photoshop CS3 to enhance the texture motifs. The final JPG file size is safely under 45MB.I suspect the combination of AI upscaling and Unsharp Mask created pixel artifacts that triggered the automated rejection, but I am not entirely sure how to fix it without losing the sharp texture details.I have attached the artwork below (both full view and 100% zoom crop). I would highly appreciate any honest critique and technical advice from senior contributors on how to clean up the pixels for a successful re-submission. Thank you!

I am really getting disgusted by this AI stuff. Just for fun, I put this image that I took with my camera today. I physically, in Photoshop, removed the pictures in the background. Nothing else was touched in this photo. I put it into three AI programs. One came back absolutely AI. The other two came back, not AI. What can we do about this? This is a real picture. No AI tools were used at all. How are the inspectors going to know when an image is real? Especially if it goes through a generator. 

Hi, everyone can you inform me why my png picture doesn't meet the quality standard of Adobe stock? Thank you.

Hi everyone,I recently submitted this image to Adobe Stock, but it was rejected for “Quality Issues.”I would really appreciate some constructive feedback from experienced Adobe Stock contributors. I’m trying to understand what technical or visual issues I may have missed, especially regarding sharpness, softness, artifacts, texture inconsistencies, or other quality concerns.The image is 4096 × 2304 px and was created using generative AI.I’d like to learn from this rejection and improve my workflow before submitting more images.Thank you very much for any feedback!

Dear community,I recently submitted these photos. The one with the yellow flower was accepted whereas the pink flower in the tree was rejected due to Quality issues. I must admit, I am new to Adobe and don’t understand the exact reasons for this decision. If anyone has constructive feedback, please let me know :)Hope to hear from you soon!

 Hello Adobe Stock Contributor Community,I recently created my Adobe Stock Contributor account, and this is the first and only Contributor account I have ever created.However, my account is showing as “Inactive” with a message saying that Adobe Stock does not allow multiple Contributor accounts.I tried contacting Contributor Support through the official Contact Us form and selected:Account → Multiple account approval requestBut when I try to submit the case, I receive this error:“We are sorry, there was an error submitting your case.”I have never intentionally created or operated another Adobe Stock Contributor account.Could someone please advise me on how I can get this issue reviewed by Adobe Contributor Relations?Thank you.

 I have a large number of JPEG images that I need to batch-convert to TIFF for use in Photoshop. The conversion itself works fine, but I would like Photoshop to display thumbnails/previews for the resulting TIFF files.Is there a Photoshop setting or batch-processing method that will automatically create and save the thumbnail/preview information in the TIFF files? I would prefer not to open and save each image individually.Any advice on the ac correct workflow would be appreciated.

I want to feedback on my photo (rejected).I am beginner and will be happy to know any your thoughts about improving. Thank you!

I noticed these examples in the Adobe Stock Top Sellers:AntonKhrupinArt: 28 pages — 100,000 downloads Tanya Shulga: 21 pages — 100,000 downloads dlyastokiv: 100 pages — 250,000 downloadsHow can contributors with only 20–30 pages of assets reach 100,000+ downloads?Does Adobe Stock's download count depend mainly on search ranking, content demand, keywords, asset age, or individual assets being downloaded many times?I’m trying to understand how a relatively small portfolio can generate such a high number of downloads.

The image is sharp, not overexposed, and looks good to me, yet it was rejected due to quality. 

Can I access my Adobe Contributor account to upload my stock photos from the Creative Cloud desktop app?Thanks.

This got rejected for quality issues. But what exactly is the issue? (I’m trying to learn better). 

Hi,I upload textile pattern designs to Adobe Stock. However, a significant number of our designs are repeatedly rejected for technical reasons that do not seem relevant to the nature and intended use of textile patterns.The moderators appear to evaluate these designs using photography-based criteria and reject them with the following message:“Common issues that can impact the technical quality of images include exposure issues, soft focus, excessive filtering or artifacts/noise.”For textile repeat patterns, criteria such as sharpness, focus, depth of field, or photographic exposure should not always be assessed in the same way as they are for photographs. These designs are specifically created for printing on fabrics and other surfaces. Textures, effects, color transitions, linear elements, and visual details are intentional parts of the design.Because these works are being evaluated in the same technical category as photographs or standard visual content, the repeated rejections have

Hello,I would like to ask whether I can receive my Adobe Stock earnings through a Skrill account registered under a different name.My situation is:My Adobe Stock Contributor account is registered under Person A. My Adobe Stock account email is Email A. The Skrill account is registered under Person B. The primary email address of my Skrill account is Email B.I would like to use this Skrill account to receive my Adobe Stock payout.Is it allowed for an Adobe Stock Contributor account registered under Person A to receive payouts through a Skrill account registered under Person B?Could the difference in the account holder names cause the payout to be rejected, held, or cause any issue with my Adobe Stock Contributor account?I would like to confirm this before requesting a payout.Thank you.

Hello Adobe Stock Community,My Adobe Stock Contributor account was recently blocked, and I received an email from Adobe Contributor Relations stating that my account had been blocked due to content or activity that may have violated the Adobe Stock Submission Guidelines or Contributor Terms.I have already contacted Adobe and submitted the official appeal form requesting a review of my account.I sincerely apologize if I made any mistake. I believe some of my submissions may have been too similar, as I sometimes uploaded multiple variations of similar content. This was unintentional, and I now understand that I need to be much more careful about submitting only distinct and compliant content.I have spent the past four months working very hard on my Adobe Stock account, so this situation has been very difficult for me. I have asked Adobe to kindly give me one more opportunity. If my account is reinstated, I will carefully review every submission and strictly follow all Adobe Stock guideli

pls guys tell me how to fix this render

I am so excited! The original picture of the two dogs was rejected. After a few changes, this was accepted. I am so happy. I really, really wanted this picture in the collection.
