Quoting Rejection Reasons:
These photo(s) appear to have been processed in an unacceptable manner.
This may be due to incorrect use of certain features of the image
processing software, but it may also be due to deliberate attempts to
alter the image, i.e. by digitally removing or adding objects, or by
purposely changing certains items in the image.

Not only do I disagree with the rejection but that's a completely separate thread and one I choose not to fight (and it was rejected upon appeal...), the bold text seems to be a big F--K YOU to a vast majority of people (like me) who don't intentionally make "deliberate attempts to alter the image."

Maybe it's time to be like brand X and have a separate "Manipulation" and "Over Processed" rejection?

Sorry, but I think that's nonsense.

It says it may be due to deliberate attempts etc, or to incorrect use of software.

If you are not guilty of deliberate attempts etc, there is no reason to feel offended at all.

Obviously in this case you feel that you didn't use the software incorrectly either, but that is another matter.

Exactly. I'm not the screener so I don't know, and the fact that I don't know is the problem. Am I being tagged for a deliberate manipulation or am I being told to go easy on the neatimage/shadow-highlight/sharpening? The fact that bad manipulation is hinted at makes me wonder.

Actually no, once the appeal is rejected it's dumped from the system. And manipulation wasn't on the original rejection.

Are we going to argue over symantics again? Rather than adressing the problem that Over Processed and Bad Manipulation are two different reasons for rejecting a photo and should be classed as such?

You know if you did the former, don't you? If you didn't, you're obviously being told the latter (even if you don't agree with that).

The screeners are not clairvoyant. They obviously can't always see whether unacceptable cloning, for example, was the result of deliberate manipulation or clumsiness.

So in this case I'm being told the latter and I didn't do any cloning period...great...thanks.

All you needed to do was post the rejection here and ask the screeners for clarification, they would have cleared it up for you. Without seeing the pic this thead is just going to turn into another tennis match.

So, where is the file you uploaded? Do you delete them from your computer after you upload them here? It's quite easy to post the pic here.

Or is this just another rant, cause if it is just tell us so we can move on.

Well no it isn't in the past when you have had an axe to grind... er, point to make, you have had no trouble linking to a photo on your website or you could add the photo in your profile and link it there. Nothing to hide is there Eric?

Having said that I also agree to a point that this particular rejection reason could be split up. I also accept that you are discussing that rather than your particular image.

Are you sure about no cloning out of dust spots??

Because if you equalise that shot, there is a massive dodgy spot in the sky. I don't know if that would be it though. It can only be seen by equalising.

Have you tried emailing the screening team regarding this? It might just pay off to go about it that way.

Just a thought.

well uh, if it can only be seen by equalizing, and it's cloning of dust spots, what's the problem?

Yes I see it too, but wouldn't that be more quality rejection? It's just a spot and it should be followed by a personal message describing it in brief.

There's your answer right there. That is the problem. Try the shot again, but clone more carefully.

It probably would have been the better way of approaching things instead of getting the photographer angry. That's all we need sometimes. A short message.

Eric,

We don't mean to tell you how to edit or accuse you of poor editing.... but with the huge queue, we're not going to specifically provide each and every individual with a detailed personal message refining the rejection.

As with all rejection reasons, not all parts of the rejection reasons may be directed at you. We (as screeners) might see something in the image which may lead us to reject under the general reason of "editing".

The light patch in sky points more towards a clone of dirt. That fine - we ask that you remove dust spots, but in a subtle manner.

There is no other rejection reason for this other than the one you received.

Then why is it so easy for me, over on Jetphotos, to click either "manipulation" or "over processed?"

Seems like you got the correct rejection reason. You cloned something out, and did a poor job, and it is visible.

We do have another rejection reason similiar to what you call "over processed." We call it NOA_Editing.

A better question to ask would be how long will it take you to start a thread on Airwhiners calling me an *censored* because I have given you an answer you did not want to hear.

Eric,

You have had an answer from 3 seperate screeners now and we can also see why they said it and that it is justified as can you.

Is there any need to keep retaliating?

It was a unfortunate mistake on your part, re edit and reupload and the pic will be on soon enough.  Smile
