Title: Vector Rejected because of Embedded Image
Post by: Dreamframer on June 07, 2018, 22:25
Guys, I submitted only a few vectors so far, and my last one was rejected for embedded images. I can see the embedded images in the links panel. All the images is basically just a single color fill. Is there a quick way to replace these images with a real fill and get rid of them completely? I can do it one by one, but it takes a lot of time.

Basically, to explain more, what I have is a bunch of shapes, but their color fill comes from embedded images underneath them, and I have to get rid of those embedded images and replace the color from the images with the real fill. All embedded images have just a single color.

Thanks in advance.

I can see the embedded images in the links panel, and I was wondering is there a way to convert such images into a vector? All the images is basically just a single color fill. Is there a quick way to replace these images with a fill and get rid of them completely? I could probably do it one by one, but that would be tedious.

Thanks in advance.

I've faced many time with these reasons for rejecting:

I have just to rework it sometimes and re-submit.
or the confirmed working process is rename-resubmit

I actually found a solution. When I export it as svg from Photoshop all the bitmaps disappear. :)

Glad it fixed for you. But why are you working with photoshop for vectors? Use Illustrator or CoralDraw for it.

You shouldn't be using any bitmap work in your vectors anyway. As a buyer and contributor I can say that it's incredibly irritating to download your "vectors" and then have to fix raster elements used.

I do work in Illustrator, but I wanted to try being in Photoshop. And yes, I know I can't have any rasters. All is sorted out now. I'm still learning. Most of my files are photos.

Or worse, buying what is called a vector, preview looks like a vector, downloading, then finding out it’s just a jpg embedded in illustrator, with no vectors at all.

That would never be put up for sale at a decent agency, would it?
