Title: Submission issues now that using AS not Fotolia interface
Post by: Hildegarde on November 20, 2018, 20:42
Has anyone else had this issue.

I started using the Adobe Stock interface the past few days.  Previously I used Fotolia.
Once an image uploads, I am often getting thrown to this page which talks about submission guidelines.
https://helpx.adobe.com/stock/contributor/help/submission-guidelines.html

The problem is that my images do not have the problems they identify on that page.  I do not get it.   
1. No identical files-- if the main subject matter same, I am careful to make sure they are different.  If an animal-- animal doing something different/different place.  If food, different food state or process.  Etc etc
2.  Not copied.  I never bother to look at other photographer's work.  I even went to check to see what other files were available on AS for a certain subject after getting this message-- none!
3.  Not public domain -- my own work.
4.  NOT  infringing, illegal, or pornographic content
No issues with keywording because site takes me to that page before I even keyword.  Image itself not grabbed at end.  Not a matter of size or image type either. No need for model or property release (again, not grabbed before I could attach one anyhow).

I notice that the automatic keywording often misidentifies the subject even if it gets category right so I am wondering if that is an issue.  Food photos often include similar things as in dishware or flatware even when different food itself/different composition.  Wondering if that triggers the move to this page.

Anyhow, is anyone else having this issue?  I am frustrated.  One new image I never got to upload-- SS sales immediately.  Would be nicer to get higher commission on AS.  If there is something wrong, I cannot figure it out.  Never had this issue with FT uploading.

Haven't encountered this issue yet. You could try uploading via ftp (with filezilla for instance) in the meantime?
