Title: Images with qoutes not accepted
Post by: zomie on February 04, 2016, 13:03
With FT images like this are not accepted, They want me to remove the text. But that is the idea, to sell it as a complete illustration.

SS accept these and they sell good, so I like to get them on FT too.

Has anyone a clue what to do to get them approved?
I can see this kind of images on the site, so there must be a way. Or are this old ones?

It really doesn't seem like a complete illustration.  It looks like you just dropped text on top.  The font doesn't work for me.  I don't see a path, so I don't see how the quote applies to the image.

The plants suggest a path, but it is just an idea.

To me, the image looks like it's tilting. So, path or no path, that might be why FT rejected it.

other issues aside, ironic to offer, for (multiple?) sale, an image telling everyone to 'create their own path'!

Fotolia aims at a different market.  The don't think your image is good for their market.

Don't sweat it, just move on.

Is this a troll post? If it is, its working because you got me to respond. Stuff like that should be rejected. Seems like Fotolia is doing the right thing.

I think some people think they are selling their ideas, with the text and message. But buyers want to make their own message and text, which means, no sale. FT is selling to the bigger market, not just people who want one message.

The problem is font\composition, or FT just dont acept added text to images?

I mean, if you improve font and composition of text, image would be accepted at FT?

FT will not be interested in that image, no matter what you do to it.

Designers won't be interested in that image. They want to do their own design and choose their own fonts. The image by itself might be useful, though.
