I know a few poeple post here and on other forums about odd/impolite rejections, so I thought I'd post a bit of one of the Fotolia ones I just got...

This is the first two paragraphs from the rejection of a fairly weak image I have only had accepted by one site (SS) and hasn't sold once so I wasn't expecting it to be accepted.  I really like the wording:

"We regret to inform you that photo donations please was unfortunately not accepted.

The photographs in the Fotolia database are intended for sale as illustration of brochures, magazines, websites, and presentations. Your photographic work is excellent but does not meet the needs of the Fotolia customer base."

So it's official.  My photographic work is excellent. I can now rest easy, put up my feet and just bask in the glow of my own excelence. :-).

Have a nice day...
