Title: Non Compliant Content
Post by: Steveball on January 05, 2017, 11:43
Just had a rejection email for an image which stated the reason for rejection as being 'Non Compliant Content'. I clicked the more details link but there were no more details! Anyone know what this means? Thanks.

Sometimes it can be an indication of something like a watermark or signature on the image.

More often than not however, it's the result of an image being resubmitted without necessary changes. For example, if an image is submitted with an invalid model release, the file will be put into "remind to complete" mode with an indication there is a problem with the release. If you then resubmit the same file with the same bad release, the image is then declined for non-compliance.

Model releases are the most common though it can also occur if you submit a file with bad keywords also.

Post the image number and I'll be happy to take a look for you.

All it means is they don't like it.  Consider the rejection to be "We don't think we can sell it."

it doesnt make much sense really, i had the non compliant rejection on a series of isolated model images. 80% was accepted and the others rejected for model release, same model release, which has never given me any issues, on any agency.

why would a model release become invalid half way through an inspection?

feels like istock dejavu all over again

Regarding image 132205879, it appears to be the actual content and nothing to do with a release. Generally, intentionally blurred content is pretty tough to get through. There will be exceptions of course for the most part, designers prefer to add their own post-processing special effects to match their project exactly. You will likely find better results submitting the clean, sharp, color version of the image.
