Im still not seeing this. I'm getting maybe a 2-3 day time period for new images to be uploaded and its been like that for a while.
Last batch i submitted on the weekend have been reviewed sometime before now when i checked.

That said, for some reason, ive had 4 images stuck in the queue for 2 weeks now that havent budged but the other 150 or so went through.

You are lucky. My oldest batch of photos (not AI, real photos) has been sitting in review for 16 days now, still not reviewed. The batch after that has been sitting unreviewed for 10 days, another one for 9 days and so on...
The only photos that get reviewed faster for me are editorial ones.

I have a bunch of photos (also real) sitting in the queue at 25 days.

I wonder if Adobe could give priority for seasonal content in their queues?

autumn, halloween, thanksgiving, harvest, christmas...maybe they could pick that out earlier than non seasonal images?

When we lose money, they lose money.

But no idea if that is possible with their system.

For all media of course, not just ai.

they do - they are entered as illustrations - what else could they be?

Did you miss the announcement that they can now be submitted as photos? Happened maybe around 3 weeks ago....

yes, i missed it - i agree w you they're not photos

Some of my 1–2-month-old pix were reviewed today - still a lot of 'quality' rejects other agencies took, but at least time they didn't reject an entire batch. interesting that they reviewed only photos, the AI gen's from the same bath are still waiting their turn

Seems like the relative ease of creating AI images led to a huge amounts of such content fooding Adobe reviewers. The easy fix could be in setting a limit on the number of AI images one can submit in a week. It should balance the review capacity and promote submitting only the best generations at the same time.

cobalt · « **Reply #30 on:** September 08, 2023, 04:13 »

In there are people in their discord group saying they cannot submit more than 51 files, in other groups a more advanced contributor says he cannot submit more than 700.

My highest was 340 ai in the queue and still no limit reached. On average I have 200.

The problem seems to be that at least some ai reviewers have no legal training and are accepting content with visible copyright issues and even protected brand names in titles.

And then probably a software sweeps over ports and locks them without notifying the producer who then has to discover this himself and write to support to find out what happened.

So even if they made the limits much lower, if the review process is not improved, the issue and risk for producers still exist.

one steep forward, 2 steps back

instead of the generic 'we dont like this image', we now see
Possible reasons:

- Non compliant use of another artist’s name.

- Undeclared Generative AI Content.

- Content not compliant with overall guidelines:

but does that mean they think it's AI?(when it's not, but we dont know if this was the reason & we can submit properly)
or
is it not compliant for another reason

they need to have a separate notice for AI gen related problems

so, they've just muddied the waters and we still dont know why it's rejected; 'guidelines' is such a weasel word & covers a multitude of sins, only some of which are technical

otoh, the good news is they're catching up - recent photo reviews were only 10 days old, but dozens AI gen from last month havent been reviewed, and weirdly 3 images are 2 months old

Isard · « **Reply #32 on:** September 09, 2023, 07:10 »

For me ..

Validations of illustrations ..at least 6 weeks of waiting sometimes 2 months ..

Editorial .. very fast 24H

I'm over a month on some of mine.

Over a month here as well. It seems things are getting worse rather than better. Seems out of control now.

normal photo: still sitting at 14 days

real photo png: sitting at 29 days

ai photos: around 20 ? days

ai illustration : more than 2 months

There is NO such thing as ai photo.

AnneVictoire · « **Reply #39 on:** September 13, 2023, 15:46 »

Yep, two images "submitted last month" i.e. more than 28 days ago, when they announce moderation can take up to four weeks. They should correct this to say moderation can take more than four weeks. I have no A.I. illustrations and 72 photos waiting to be reviewed.

Suggestion for Adobe/Mat

Please allow us a small number of files to be fast tracked, to be able to respond to current world events - a new covid type scare, floodings and earthquakes, maybe a stock market crash...aliens are real...

The way it is now, if something dramatic happens, we have no chance of getting relevant material online in time.

Imagine if all the images of people wearing masks got delayed for 3 months...

So - perhaps depending on port size/sales success/rank...please allow us to fasttrack 2-10 files a week.

cobalt · « **Reply #42 on:** September 15, 2023, 02:58 »

Thank you for taking the time to reply.

It is of course always possible for Adobe to look through the queue for suddenly needed content and inspect it faster.

I am seeing quite a few of my christmas ai coming through while other content uploaded earlier is still in the queue, which I really appreciate. Timing is crucial for seasonal content.

A fast track option would have been nice, but the best solution is to better manage the entire queue.

dragonblade · « **Reply #43 on:** September 15, 2023, 10:23 »

Ive just had a super fast review for an illustrative editorial photo. I submitted it last night and it was accepted tonight. Amazing. Though I still have a number of other photos sitting in the review queue that have been there for ages.

Pacesetter · « **Reply #44 on:** September 15, 2023, 22:46 »

Us... by the time our photos are reviewed on Adobe Stock...

Jaggy · « **Reply #45 on:** September 16, 2023, 09:12 »

I had two photos in my queue approved today. Strangely, they were not the oldest shots awaiting review. Those are still pending approximately 35 days in.

dragonblade · « **Reply #46 on:** September 17, 2023, 00:38 »

It's great when you get a photo accepted on AS considering that their reviews are so strict these days. I had a photo of a green praying mantis accepted a few days ago but for some reason, it's not visible in my port. Definitely not showing up.

Edit: And now it's appeared. Could not find it before and scanned through my port twice.

AnneVictoire · « **Reply #47 on:** September 18, 2023, 13:25 »

Yes, Adobe does approve some photos that are not at the end of the queue, or editorial (these get reviewed pretty quickly). I'm not sure what the rationale is, as those recently approved were not more or less timely than the oldest uploads (more than a month after upload). Still, I am grateful whenever some are approved these days, rather than taking it for granted.

cobalt · « **Reply #48 on:** September 18, 2023, 14:07 »

I again had some autumn files pulled out earlier from the queue and i am very grateful. Otherwise they would arrive in winter.

wds · « **Reply #49 on:** September 18, 2023, 17:52 »

I had some editorials go through pretty quickly....maybe they are finally getting a handle on this?
