What's with all the rejections lately at 123. I swear they're getting as bad as FT. The sad part of it is (for them), what they reject has been accepted by the "Big Boys" and selling well. Almost all of the reasons are "poor lighting or composition". I thing someone needs to calibrate their monitor....of course that's just my opinion.....jp

They should reject more.  I keep clicking on the links at the top of the forum, and they all link to pretty bad snaps or Yuri's pics.

Maybe this is an isolated case.  Just checked my last several months of uploads and I've had 1 rejection out of about 150 submissions.  Slightly better success rate than I'm having at most the other sites...  I've always had the impression that 123's standards are a bit looser than the others.

I agree and do not agree. They should reject more (than before, not now) , but probably should hire better reviewers. Their rejects are (and were) in most cases unpredictable.

Hope you're right about "isolated case". I had 5 small batches pending for awhile and all were reviewed together with 4 of the 5 rejected...several images were rejected needing PR's for exterior of a hospital that was unidentifiable. Normally I have had a high acceptance there.

You are right.  My last batch was accepted 100% at the big 4 but 123rf refused 3 of them.

Unusual for them...

Yes, they usually accept everything there. I think they must have a new inexperienced reviewer.
