Question regarding awards.

Monday, February 19, 2007 by jimmyyy | Discussion: Skinning


After searching in the forms i think that many skinners including myself don't know what awards are based on. You'd think there'd be an short article somewhere. I read a comment in here were a person stated that awards are not important, but that its the item being shared thats important. I agree, but if awards are given isn't it a good idea to know the criteria for the award?

Ive compiled a list and I'm hoping some of you vets can fill in the blanks this way future skinners will understand what these awards are and why they were obtained.



::: AWARDS :::

Top WC Total Downloads
Top 2 Total WC Downloads


Top 1 BootSkins Downloads
Top 1 Rainlendar Downloads
Top 1 Suites Downloads
Top 1 WallPapers Downloads
Top 1 WindowBlinds Downloads
Top 1 DesktopXThemes Downloads
Top 2 IconPackager Downloads
Top 2 Misc.Icons Downloads


Top 1 Total Downloads
Top 10 Total Downloads
Top 50 Total Downloads


Top 1 Yearling
Top 2 Total Referrals
Top 10 Total Referrals
Top 10 Homepage Visits
Top 3 Skin Comments
Top 2 Veteran
Wincustomize Subscriber
Top 50 Article Points

Personally my Main curiosity Regarding All of the awards; Are they measured by time? 1 month or 1year or half a year?. Are some awards based on a month while others yearly?

There are other awards also that could use a little explaining. For example 'Top 2 Veteran,' not sure what thats all about, but does that suggest theres a top apprentice, or new comer.
- - So If you know what these awards are here please leave some feedback on any of them, including the time factor. Thanks in advance for your input.

Spend more time learning and creating good skins instead of worrying about what awards mean or how far you are behind somebody.

If you work is good, people will notice and everything else will follow.

I don't mean to be misunderstood. Ive seen different posts about how stardock needs to cultivate new skinners. This is an area were i don't see it doing that.

As for stardock, i love these products. The more skins are created, the better my computer looks. I think you misunderstand my intentions. Which of course is easy to do with my 3rd grade education.

As for learning and creating good skins, im quite happy with my past skins, Ive only been at it for 2 months. i probably spend to much time doing just that. PS i always I welcome your comments on my skins, as my posts.

I assume it means author with the highest downloads for those categories. *shrug* At least that's what seems logical to me...
