Hi,

I sent 10 JPEG files and all of them rejected !!! All these illustrations have been accepted from other agencies (like fotolia, dreamstime, ...). I send you some samples of my work in order to make your comments.

Thanks

Could you post what rejection reasons were given? That will help us to help you out better.

I added to the description the reasons for not approval.

Hi! What to say, now backgrounds must be really cool to get approved, especially abstract ones. This green tentacle has uncareful colors, tech background is too flat and simple, and yellow ball looks like from other picture...sorry, maybe it was too cruel!

I would get rid of the text on your Christmas tree. It distracts and the image doesn't really need it.

The woman image might be okay just make sure you expand the brushes and get rid of the left over strokes that will have no fill color and no stroke color.

The one with no reason would have been accepted and remove the names of the other sites and just put up the initials.

Xmas card is OK, just (as Anita said) text is not OK. Maybe it is not bad to move a fir up to make copy space below, also - again maybe - to decorate a fir with white stars and golden ones to put around to make an accent on tree.But the best will be to upload later when xmas picture madness will be over.
For me a girl looks aggressive, eyes are crazy, and hair style is mixed...like she slept on one side and now can't brush hair, that's why she is angry ;0

On My Christmas, it has a narrow border around, which is not allowed. Get rid of the border and resubmit.
