Impossible Journey Up the Masters Level.

at least for me :(

Saturday, March 3, 2007 by basj | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I have been submitting my work here since 2001…and after 400K plus download…I feel my journey to the top is getting more and more impossible. Well I know a lot of you skinner out there is doing this and sharing your work just for the fun of it…but for me… I got to have a target… And my target is I want to be at the Masters level so that I can get something back for the work I’ve put in.

But recently…I compare stats between mine with some old and new skinners…what I saw were a bit confusing. I saw few fellow skinners at the rank of Journeyman who have only half D/load count comparing mine and some Master Apprentice who only have less then 100K d/load count.

If skinners are judge on how the skinners get involve with the community than surely I’ll loose out since, I am not very good in English and coming from totally different background from most of people around here.. It’s a bit difficult to get involve.

And now we have Vista… even worst. As money is and will always be very-very tight for me. I cant afford to upgrade my PIII 800MHz PC ( don’t laugh .yup it still working and still capable producing good stuff) to anything near Vista requirement soon. I feel that I am totally out of the race. While the rest of your guys charging with your superfast computers and producing in-trend skins, I am still will producing those old looking stuff.

So I am kinda like at the junction here… should I just press on, get better and carry on doing this… or just turn around and get the grip on reality… & slowly fade away..

Hmmm… any ideas?

Talk about necrothread.

This has to win some sort of prize.

 

 

I like prizes?LOL.

 

Although, considering the contest{necrothreading} , maybe it should be some old wore out prize,perhaps one of DP's submissions.ha ha!

That will start the ball rolling, or at least get you all rolling{with laughter}, sorry DP.

So RND,did the op make it to the top?

I don't know if he's a master, I think so, but I do know he recently won a prize.

No.

basj is a Journeyman, and has been for quite some time as he dropped off the screen completely...

We need to make two new categories above Master. Super Master and than Double Super Master . That way it will be easier to make Master.

You win a contest nice. Move up in rank, nice. Main thing is to enjoy skinning or just give it up as it's that simple. Now where is my promotion.
