Hi, i uploaded, 2 days ago, 5 editorial pics of my visit of the South/North Korea border. SS accepted the pics wih no prob (I even sold 2 photos), but rf rejected all my photos for theses reasons : mage Unsuitable as Stock Photo - Too Offensive - Improper for General Viewing... Pretty ridiculous no?

That's ridiculous!

A few months ago SS rejected some editorial images I took of a far-right anti-Muslim protest as "too offensive". After a couple of emails with exclamation marks they let them in. So I would suggest to contact their customer service.

I would suggest to put these images on alamy if you haven't already done so.

I submitted a photo of a baby's face once that was "too offensive" on 123.
I was offended by their offense!

The oddest rejection I ever had was from CanStockPhoto saying that I needed a model release for a nude image.
The photo was of a landscape without even a bare tree visible LOL.
