Adobe Stock / Re: Vector Image Rejected Due to Technical Issues
« on: December 13, 2024, 19:48 »
I think Ive figured out what might be happening. I created halftone collage-style images, and I suppose that, depending on the reviewer, they think there is a photo in my file. It seems they dont check the file info, where they could see that there are no raster images, and instead judge it based on appearance.
I have contacted support, but Im not sure if theyll respond. Im quite frustrated because I had this niche idea and spent an entire month creating these images. They are, at least, selling on other sites.

So far, I have 12 accepted and 10 rejected. Considering that I only had 6 rejections over all these years, the last one being 6 years ago, this is extremely frustrating.

Funnily enough, some of my images were reviewed within an hour of being submitted.

As I said I upload EPS files only. There are no gradients.
Other files with the same elements are accepted. The images are already selling on the other stock sites.

Adobe Stock / Vector Image Rejected Due to Technical Issues
« on: December 12, 2024, 16:51 »
I have been a contributor to Adobe (Fotolia) since 2016, and during this time, only six of my images have been rejected.

Today, after waiting for over two months without any reviews, a batch of images was reviewed. Some were accepted, others were rejected due to "technical reasons."

    Your file has one or more of these issues:

    Your vector file contains a raster/bitmap image, and vector files must not contain raster elements.
    Your JPEG preview file has been compressed too much, so textural problems have occurred in the file.
    Your JPEG preview resolution must not be less than 5,000 X 3,000 (15 million pixels)
    You didn't use anti-aliasing when exporting your vector file to JPEG, so there are problems with lines on the JPEG file.

I upload only EPS files, not JPEGs, and there are no raster elements in the files. Additionally, these images are part of a series, yet some were accepted while others were rejected. There are no technical issues.

What gives?

It's says:

Adobe Stock / Re: Adobe has blocked my account
« on: September 27, 2024, 08:21 »
Ive always wondered why contributors get blocked when someone purchases a large number of images. After reading many posts, it seems this is what happens. If someone buys images using a stolen card or commits some other type of fraud, they likely get refunded, and in response, Adobe always blocks the contributor. It seems the default assumption is that the contributor is guilty until proven otherwise, which is concerningespecially when this is a source of income. To make things worse, there appears to be little to no communication about the situation. It seems absurd to me that the average contributor would engage in something like this or am I too naive.
 Other agencies must be dealing with similar situations, I haven't heard people being blocked for these reasons though.

The title sounds so ironic, a kick in the teeth. But I am glad everyone is happy.

The "Gurus" on YouTube are busy making videos and selling courses on how to automate creating, upscaling, tagging, uploading thousands of images on Adobe.

Probably not many people using Procreate here, but I love the app.
From the article:
James Cuda, CEO of the graphics editing app Procreate, has recently stated that the company has no plans to introduce generative AI tools in its line of products. In a video posted on Procreate's official X account, Cuda publicly stated his stance on AI-generated art, saying, "I really hate generative AI. I don't like what's happening in the industry, and I don't like what it's doing to our artists."

I suppose I misunderstood what PokemonMaster meant. I just add the keywords in Illustrator. I submit only a few images though.

I just saw they no longer accept zip files for vectors, I suppose that might be the problem... or not.

I don't think it is. I don't have rejections except for a few images submitted 7 years ago.

@Mifornia - Thanks, my other vectors are in the queue between 12 days and a month as of today, 8 images. I don't have AI ones.

Are your vector images being reviewed. I don't submit many images but it's kind of demotivating to add more. I also have one vector sitting there for 8 months.

Yes, many people use it because of this, I've used it for a while at some point too, but that was my first thought when I saw the news.

My guess is it will become subscription based.

19
I received my payment today.

20
I am still waiting too.

21
I havent got a payment, I requested it on time.

24
According to my payments page I didn't receive the full sum too.
I received the sum from my earnings page(after taxes).
I opted out from AI training so the additional sum on the payments page(or the missing sum) is not that.

25
Yepp. Still have my doubts they'll pay you for the same images that have already been used for training each month. But I guess we'll see next month.

I won't receive anything since I opted out. I added the info for those asking.
