This image was rejected for potentially infringes on intellectual property rights.
Maybe it could have other kind of problems but were is "potentially infringes on intellectual property rights"?

Thank you in advance.

Are there any copyrighted logos in the image?

I bet it is the design elements on the pavement.

If it was that strict with the design we wouldn't have beem allowed to submit all that architecture and street views for commercial usage...
Maybe they hit the wrong reason and meant the trademark because of all the cars?

I have never been there, don't know the place but I have tons of photographs rejected for similar reasons

jc1305us · « **Reply #13 on:** April 07, 2016, 10:08 »

SS is truly insane with some of the reasons they deny photos. I've had photos accepted by other agencies no problem, then for some reason SS says no thanks. Even editorial content! Bit disappointing to be honest.

I just had one refused for the title not being in English or being too long...it was a picture of the Derbyshire dales....titled Derbyshire dales.

I can only think it was someone who has never heard of Derbyshire...but to tell me Derbyshire is not English.....grrrr

Pauws99 · « **Reply #15 on:** April 08, 2016, 03:52 »

To be honest I don't think anyone really understands rejection criteria anywhere!!!!!

Well we can't tell for sure without a full resolution sample. If it is a 40MP image you might be able to pick things out at 200%. (I'm reaching maybe!)

I would imagine the problem is not with the word Derbyshire but the word dales. That is more of a British term. If you submitted a photo of a truck and called it a lorrie, I'm sure you would get the same response. Try resubmitting with Derbyshire Valley and see what happens. Maybe your reviewer has never travelled too far.

LMAO, the first problem is that some ss reviewers have poor eyesight
then it was the problem with reviewers not have calibrated monitors
now, it's about hiring illiterate reviewers... LMAO

lorry (truck) , dale , taxi (cab), kati, okra (lady's fingers) ...whatever, ... even wanker (m*$t*b*****r)... is still English

you 'd think with that office with perks they would provide him/her with a dictionary
or at least the twit could have easily googled to find out if it was in fact an English

LOL last time I checked, the Americans were not speaking English before the Brits came over ...
even a yankee or a southerner would know the word dale or lorry.
next thing we know, even timbuktu, leprechaun , kowtow , sahara, even etc..would be considered "not English"

I'm actually hearing 'dale' for the first time here. I always just thought it was a name.

The United States and Britain, two countries separated by a common language.

you surely heard the song that soldiers sang ...

"Over hill, over dale,
As we hit the dusty trail,
And the caissons go rolling along". ...

or the christmas song

"From everywhere, filling the air
Oh!, how they pound, raising the sound
O'er hill and dale, telling their tale"

sung by american pop
duo Carpenters

................ still, my point isn't that I expect ss reviewers to be literate and know every word in the Webster's, but that person should at least be intelligent enough to google the word
and just not to assume any word that does not sound like English is not English.
in fact, many words of locations, etc.. are not English

Sadly, I suspect they're paid peanuts on piece work, and it wouldn't be sustainble to Google everything that was suspect.
At most/all 'generalist' agencies, not just SS.
