Same here, maybe an early Christmas present...

I have new images being reviewed, three batches, and passed, and two images sitting in limbo. I deleted them. After a month, I gave up. I haven't had similar rejections, which is fine with me.

I had eight photos sitting in the queue for well over a month. Three got accepted last night. Five others are still waiting. I really wonder why I bother uploading to Adobe.

Please, don't hesitate to share the good places where you upload your image.

Yes, I'd like to know where things are better.

Watching how collection flooding with identical Ai crap every day while "organic" photos, illustrations, vector and videos getting rejected as "similar" is ultra demotivational 

I uploaded 180 camera pictures, only 1 got rejected due to the intelectual issues.

FYI, I resubmitted some photos initially rejected because similars were already present in the collection, and basically all were accepted.

I wonder how their similar detector works, or doesn't work, or if it's a personal reviewer thing. I haven't ever had a similar rejection, or if I did, it was so long ago, I don't recall. But I trust what I read here from many people and they are getting rejections for similar. I can only say, it's not similar to only our own, it can be too many like this, already on Adobe. So, it's down to, reviewers personal opinion?

Yes, these were not similar to my previous submissions, but considered similar to other photos in the global collection.
I didn't change anything on these photos, not even the file name, and basically all went through after the second evaluation.

If human reviewers are involved then one would expect a degree of subjectivity which may explain why the same batch may be rejected first then accepted when submitted a second time.

Yes, they claim humans are involved, but we never know at what stage.

And some image reviews as well, for "Quality". When I put that one aside and waited a week, uploaded in another batch, passed with all the rest. Some reviewer didn't like something in the image, personally.

smae here -esp'ly for ilustrations - i've been checking for previously rejected images to resubmit - most now  accepted

Im still seeing 80% or so similar rejections, even submitted 1 or 2 at a time from a batch with a week or more spaced.

With all due respect to you .....do you really think that housekeeper with elementary school education and ZERO photography skills and ONE WEEK of training can decide what is good photo ?
