the encoder matters more than the render. jpg quality 95, 4:4:4, srgb, 300 dpi, written in one pass. same art, different file, and the rejects stopped. #DesignTips i made the Pipeline Starter Kit for this.

the fix for unusable ai art was not a better tracer. it was prompting for flat: thick outlines, flat fills, small palette, no gradients. design for the final file, not for the render. #AI #DesignTips i made the Vector Prompt Pack for this.

a file can look perfect on screen and still fail review. you validate the file's contents, not its name. adobe raster wants 4 to 100 MP, srgb, jpg under 45 MB, checked against the platform's own rulebook. #DesignTips #Microstock

one platform silently strips underscores from filenames. not rejects, rewrites. found it in their official docs, not a blog. saved a batch of 30 files from a rejection i would never have predicted. #DesignTips

uploading an icon sheet and each tile separately felt like more exposure. it is the opposite. it counts as duplicate content and gets rejected. one form, one upload. boring fix, big pass-rate jump. #DesignTips
