I'm tired of seeing "similar to existing item" Messages

We’re sorry, your item College Summer Party has not been approved for sale on GraphicRiver. This is the reason given by our item inspector:

Unfortunately, your submission is too similar to existing item(s) in our marketplace. Your upload must be a unique concept not based on any existing marketplace item.

[removed reviewer name]

And i wanna thank [removed reviewer name] for always rejecting my files.

[text removed]

I had to removed the name of the reviewer and the offer of giving the item away as it’s not allowed on the forum. Thanks!

A note on Freebies

Please note, as per Forum Rules, because of the commercial nature of the Envato networks, authors are expected to understand and respect the fact that using the forum to post links to one’s own items, or to give away free files to the community, is not allowed. This practice effectively undercuts the hard work of all authors who wish to sell their items fairly.

Aww, sorry to see it was rejected. I’m pretty sure they have a tough time approving and rejecting materials, but that’s the terms of the marketplace. :/

What are the terms? My 3 unique design rejected by the same reviewer?

No, it’s just unfortunate that your work was rejected. I was referring to the terms in which whoever reviews your work.

Keep your chin up though, Im sure you’ll be able to create plenty more work

Yeah you are right. I will need money for more beers

Don’t waste your work…we all go through the same…just keep working on it! Leave it alone for a few days…than go back to it…you’ll have “other eyes”!

In this case…try to make the lettering contrast a bit and you could also add some details on the backgroung.

Best Luck

This is a bad advice people. Remember that resubmitting without making the required changes or any improvements is not considered acceptable use of the Envato marketplaces and repeated attempts may result in a temporary or permanent suspension of authorship.

How is that bad advice? He’s telling him what we all do. “Just keep working on it! leave it alone for a few days… than go back to it…” That’s what I did when I submitted to the Logo category. I’d get rejections, leave it alone for a few days and then go back to the design or work on other ones until I had more creative ideas for the rejected logo.

Perhaps you didn’t read his reply clear enough… which kinda strikes me odd that could happen.
