Title: Building release or not building release ?
Post by: Phadrea on April 27, 2014, 03:33

SS seem to be very inconsistent in the requirement of a building release. I have submitted many exteriors and interiors with no requirement but some they turn down for that reason. My last batch nearly all were rejected on that basis. Generic interior that could not be identified. In fact they are empty and due for renovation.

Hi Herg,

If you're confused about the reason for the rejection, you should write into Support at [email protected]. They'll either reverse the rejection if it was an error, or if you ask for an explanation - they should be able to provide some guidance on the issue.

We are coming out with more educational material on releases through the blog and also through some upcoming eBooks (currently being translated into multiple languages).

Best,

But it has just happened again. Same building that was accepted a couple of weeks ago. 3 more images of the same building just rejected on the basis of "trademark" It seems the rules vary from person to person.
