Most of the garden paraphernalia (carved wall motifs, custom pots, etc...) can't be used commercially unless you have signed release forms from the designers who created the stuff.    Keep in mind that Stock is a global assets business; not a social sharing site. The acceptance standards here are much higher for use by professionals.   Whatever you submit must have a clear intent, excellent visual & technical quality, and be legally free to use commercially.

This is what Adobe Stock has to say about "similar content." https://helpx.adobe.com/stock/contributor/help/how-to-submit-distinct-content.html   Before you submit, always check your work against other inventory in the database. If Stock already has many millions of similar assets, they probably don't need more, unless yours is very special in some way.   Also look for less common keywords & titles with which to label your assets.   Hope that helps.     ...

Your current site is sorely outdated code-wise, it lacks accessibility for disabled users, and it's not web friendly for people on smaller devices. Those THREE website CARDINAL SINS make it toxic by modern web standards.    When people can't use your site as expected, there's no point in having one.    You need an online website builder. No coding skills or technical know-how required. Just EZPZ point, click, drag & drop, you're done.    WIX is probably the simplest & most affordable online site builder. It's powered with AI so you can have a new site up & running in just a few clicks.  https://www.wix.com/   Best of all, your new site will look great & perform well for all users.

Stock Reviewers are randomly assigned to assets. It's highly unlikely that the same Reviewer examined both submission batches.    Everything AI generates looks homogenous to me. That's the nature of the beast, IMO.    Mix things up: Don't imitate, innovate. Use AI as inspiration rather than a final product. Or combine AI with original artwork to make something truly unique.   Hope that helps.    ... View more
