hey i wonder why it was rejected due to bad isolation...
perhaps a response from the moderator would be much appreciated!

This site is hard on photos, Some of my top sellers have been rejected her:hehe:

Sumit it on other sites, I'm sure others will us it:D

Good luck

I'd guess that they don't like the greyish background - it shold probably be white.

Hi

I suppose bad isolation means that the background and motive are of similar colors, and thus the motive does not stand out in a big way. But just a guess...

You're right in questioning the rejection you received. There is nothing wrong with the background the picture has, even though its not isolated white. Theres no rule that says it should be. And, the creative content of the picture is such that the background works fine.

I would suggest that when you receive a rejection reason like that, theres 2 possibilities. The first being that the inspector meant to, but failed to, reject it for another reason, i.e. technical quality, out of focus. Its hard to say without seeing the picture at 100%. The other possible explanation is just that the inspector made a mistake, which happens. If you think thats the case, check the picture for yourself, looking for focus, iso noise, jpg artifacts, etc. If you think its alright, contact crestock with the picture. We welcome feedback, and the inspection team I work together with are constantly trying to improve our accuracy.

We have in the past been tougher on incomplete background isolation for pictures that really should be on a 100% white background. However, due to advances in the latest versions of Photoshop making isolation the matter of a mouse-click, its becoming a non-issue.
