I'm not sure if any of these images would classify for stock or pass the criteria. These three are composites of my own photographs and contain some artistic filters which I understand is frowned upon?

This is a digital painting done in Corel Painter, again from one of my own photographs. This isn't a filter, but actually brush strokes with a stylus.

You should post in the critique forum... but if this is for the first ten... I doubt they will make it, although I really like them. If you were already in, I would say try them, only way to know for sure... but for first ten... I would not.

Okay, thanks.
I would have thought these would fall under illustrations even though they aren't vector. I'll save them for later. :)

You might want to try the one dragonfly modified and one original if the quality of the photograph is there... and the digital painting of the flower too... like I said, only my opinion and we never really know these days... worse case scenario you will have to wait another month... very few newbie get in on the first try...
