I tried some days ago to submit a raster version of an approved vector and today I got the confirmation email : "Image and/ or elements of image have been poorly
isolated." I don't understand what's the problem since I uploaded many rastered versions in the past that got accepted, and they were all isolated on white background. And this file is no different from the rest. It's just a flower isolated on white background.

The vector image

Strange rejections on ShutterStock are common. When I say strange I mean they are absolutely not right in the rejection reason. It's just part of their system. Reviewers are tired or they just clicked on the wrong button. Happens a lot. Try it again after a few days and it will go through.

Reviewers are human, so mistakes are not strange. However, if you write them asking about strange rejections, they never accept their mistake. There is no point of writing to [email protected]. Just resubmit them. Some of my images were accepted in 3rd try. Hope you will be luckier next time.

Just reupload with a note to the reviewer. You might get a rejection for too many on site as flowers are in abundance over there and might not consider it unique enough to go through.
Doesn't hurt to try and see if they'll let it go in. If they do reject it for too many on site let that image go and work on some other stuff.

I think they no longer do the too many on site rejection.
The 200k added every week also suggests that. Thats even more then Alamy who accept literally everything shot in focus.

Who gave the OP a minus for asking a question ?? Come On
-
Yeah a lot minuses can I have one too 8)
-
Can you show us a hi-res section of the raster version so we can check it ourselves? Something might have happened when you converted.
-
The coward trolls are at it again
-
If I resubmit will they give me a warning?

No they wont if you add a note. But best is to discuss with Shutterstock. Resubmitting without changing anything can result in a warning. Sporadically

You don't need to discuss it as long as there's a note explaining that you think the original rejection was a mistake because it was a conversion from a vector which was "clean" as an isolation.

Dear adrian3008,
Unfortunately, the image reviewer did not use the correct rejection reason for your image. (Instead of "poorly isolated", the reason should have been "poor rasterization.") However, in assessing the image with a member of the review team, we feel that the edge is actually acceptable since the aliasing is only minor. As a result, it would be fine to resubmit the image for another review evaluation. (I will email you directly with the specific custom note to use for the review team today.)
Tip: Resubmitting without a specific note to the review team explaining the resubmission (or a custom note) is not advised. Always communicate with the team why a resubmission is occurring. If you reach out to my team, we will help assess and create a custom note for you to use, if necessary. If the image should not be resubmitted, we will let you know that as well.
For all reading this message, should a question come up regarding a review, feel free to contact us via email for assistance: [email protected]. We are here to help resolve your issues.
Sincerely,
Anthony Correia

Thank you all. I will resubmit the file with a note to the review team.
