Adobe Stock / How would I do this?

« on: September 23, 2024, 06:12 »

I have an image that I would like to upload as a JPG, PNG AND SVG. Would I just upload the png which would automatically be a jpg also but upload the svg as a separate file? Or what is the best way of going about it?

Thanks

Adobe Stock / Do you upload phone wallpaper to Adobestock?

« on: September 19, 2024, 04:32 »

If so, is the format just 9:16 and is it acceptable to tag them including the words iphone and android?

If not, what is the best practice for an item like this?

Thanks

Adobe Stock / Payoneer-Do you use it to withdraw from Adobe Stock?

« on: July 02, 2024, 05:30 »

I tried to set it up as it seems far quicker than Paypal but I can't get Adobestock to recognise the Payoneer account.

Anyone else use it and have issues or is it all good for you?

How do you list an isolated PNG? Do you just put Isolated PNG then go into your title detail or is there a better way to do it?

Thanks

General Stock Discussion / Transparent backgrounds-am I missing out?

« on: May 28, 2024, 08:21 »

Never really got into the whole transparent background thing so far. Is it a big earner for you? If so is Photoshop the best to remove backgrounds to a "professional" standard?

Is it still ok to generate AI images through the new Firefly/Photoshop and sell back to Adobe for Adobestock?

Seems weird that this can be done but, hey, if Adobe say it's ok then...................

I usually go for 3x but was wondering if I should go for the highest available and does it make a difference in sales?

Thanks

AI Generated Stock Photography / Do you use just one AI generator

« on: March 11, 2024, 07:18 »

Do you generate an image using just one AI generation tool or do you try out your prompt on a few? If you do use a few, who works best for you? DALL-E, Midjourney, someone else?

Adobe Stock / Is uploading 200 images on the same subject at one time acceptable?

« on: March 06, 2024, 07:01 »

If I have ,say, 200 images on the one subject. Is it acceptable to upload them all at once or is it best practice to upload them bit by bit to Adobestock?

Just wondering what is best or if there is no difference.

Thanks

Just a thought

I see plenty sales from certain subjects but they could all be old, for all I know. So are you having getting consistent downloads with Dreamstime in 2024?

If so, WHAT'S YOUR SECRET?

General Stock Discussion / Adobestock review-How many files do you have currently waiting?

« on: February 20, 2024, 08:04 »

I have 243 currently waiting. Is that too many? Should I stop uploading until that goes down? I'm currently getting about 2 files a day reviewed.

Thanks

General Stock Discussion / Do you use an AI keyworder or do it all manually?

« on: February 19, 2024, 12:22 »

I have to say I am tempted to look at the AI generated Tit/edescription and keywording that some sites use as it would save so much time.

Does anyone on here go down that route? I just find manually doing (even with something like Chat GPT) it is so, so slow.

General Stock Discussion / Have Adobestock changed their upload system?

« on: February 18, 2024, 11:31 »

Seems that if I upload an image, lets say, one week after I uploaded another of the same style they get put side by side in the wait list.
Is this new? I always thought that my images sat in the queue in order of date/upload time, not side by side in style or set.

Anyone else noticed this?

Adobe Stock / How many is too many to have waiting in review?

AI Generated Stock Photography / Any Midjourney extperts here?

« on: February 14, 2024, 09:30 »

For some reason I'm getting quite a few deformed faces these days. I thought we were past all that.

Is it something I am doing? My prompts are pretty simple so I don't understand how faces can look so bad these days.

Adobe Stock / Do you use the same keywords/description for similar sets?

« on: February 10, 2024, 07:46 »

What are your thoughts on using the same keywords/description for sets that are similar?

For example would you use the same k/w/ and description for an image set of a business celebrating a big win in a bar with slight variations but essentially the people/subject matter is the same?

22

Adobe Stock / What is a good number of images to submit to AS per day?

« on: February 08, 2024, 17:21 »

General Stock Discussion / Background removal in 2024-Has it got any easier?

« on: February 08, 2024, 06:57 »

We can all remove a background but removing a background and THEN getting it accepted by the stock agencies, that is what matters.

Has it changed at all in the last year and is Photoshop still the "boss" of background removal?

24

Adobe Stock / How many images in a set?

« on: February 08, 2024, 06:49 »

Thanks
