Sounds like good advice.

I've tried my best here, and I can't win no matter what....
I have gone out of my way to befriend certain people, and they treat me like a non-person.. and I'm sick of it... this is not paranoia anymore, this is a fact.
Some folks take an instant dislike to you for no other reason than they are discriminitive, or they are jerks.. and I have done nothing to anybody here to anger them, I try to make people laugh.
Quite regularly, since day One of Wincustomize, there have been occasions when uploading fails. Generally it's a database/server issue, and whatever the reason it is soon rectified.
The first course of action if/when an upload disappears is to query/check there is no current bug/anomaly.
Second course is to contact a Moderator/Admin via email or PM to check if there is a specific 'issue' with the submission.
Third course if the first two don't pan out is to contact myself and/or Island Dog for suitable mediation/resolution.
[note that none of these steps includes 'presume prejudicial discrimination and contemplate tantrums']
As commented....yours truly has been 'mediating' a long time...and mostly gets it right-enough re issues of copyright...![]()

Um.....wow....
All this drama over wallpapers? Lets remember WinCustomize is a moderated site, it always has been and most likely will always be. Wallpapers are exiled only if they are rips, contain questionable content, etc. Otherwise, if they are not approved for the public gallery they will be sent to your personal page.
As Jafo said, if you would like to address why a wallpaper was moved to PP then please feel free to contact us. We would be more than happy to give advice and help.
When it comes to "fan art" and things of that sort, it's always a sketchy area because it depends on how the skin was created. Most times these are all dealt on an individual basis.

I am probabally treading where I shouldn't tread here but I just had to say something. Due to the very rude comment in post 20 "PS.. I wish I was dead.,, and To ID and Zubaz, you think you're so far above everyone, I am not a piece of shit, I'm a fucking person with feelings!", I am truly amazed that the Moderators dignified this with a response, let alone a kind but stern response. I think this speaks volumes for the maturity of the folks that help make this a great place tp spend my time and effort. Having been a Supervisor for the last 16 years, I have heard most all and know that hateful words spoken in haste are very hard to rectify. One should not burn their bridges as they may want to cross over them again someday. I think Tailsgirl made a "tail " of hereself and the matter was handled with dignity by the Mods and I just wanted to tell them that I think they did great. Maybe an apology is in order! Thats about it.

Sometimes people just have really bad days that end up very messy.....along with perhaps some external circumstances.....I'm sure if tg wanted to come back.....apologies would be the first order of the day.....this community is renowned for cutting people some slack....

Tailsgirl had a rough day yesterday. Hope all is well.
Sydneysiders is right...this is a forgiving community.

Thanks guys and thanks Zubaz, Jafo and ID for their forgiveness.. I am sorry I offended anybody, I'm not a criminal, I'm still Tailsgirl, I'm sure I'm not the only person to have ever made a bad post.. or have a bad day, and that's what it was.. sorry guys once again.. though my posting won't be the same as before, I'll concentrate more on trying to create thing's.. again, thanks![]()

Hey, TG you scared me being gone coz I was in Arizona and outta contact and wondered where you had gone in all the gone posts, welcome back now to get to work being you, the one we loves and missed.![]()
I am sorry about the break in, and can understand your concerns since you are agoraphobic - You will feel that nowhere is safe for you at the moment and that is so frightening, I hope you are feeling more secure now; do you have neighbourhood watch to look after you? You certainly don';t deserve to be judged harshly by anyone after all the fun you have created here.

I will tell you, there's been more than once I have made an ass of myself in this here community. I laugh sometimes as I look back on it. And I was usually jumping the gun, or overlooking the obvious, which seems to be what I'm best at. But, I am still here, lovin all of you, and really enjoying being a small part of this great community. And you know what occurs to me? Nothing that could possibly happen to WC is going to change how I feel about that, or about yall. (yeah, I'm a southern redneck). I feel that, because of this community, I have become a better...artist, for lack of a better word. And maybe even a better person. There are some really good people here in this community, and I am proud to be able to call them my friends. Nothing that happens to WC can take that away. Now, enough sappy shit, lets get on with being a great community!

I go for a snooze..(think I'm getting the flu....
)...and come back to find 'Gone' everywhere?...
tg...you've had a really stressful day...with the break in and everything....it does rattle you...and I know you were upset at the dramatic End of WC post....which is not the end of the world....and not the end of WC....
just gotta calm down kiddo.....there are often hiccups with uploading....I had a boot disappear from moderation queue a while ago...had two in the queue..one disappeared....left it a bit...and they both went thru....just little glitches. There may well have been copyright issues with your wall....I had one submission refused with similar issues before Christmas. It happens...you move on and make something else. As was suggested...you could have done the DA thing if it was so integral to the theme you were working on.
In the short time you've been here...you've made lots of friends....and had lots of fun....and contributed to the community in forums and galleries......just look at your karma.....meteoric...
You certainly wouldn't be the first one to have had an overwhelming day....throw in the towel....and come back when things have calmed down for you. It certainly sounds like your life has been somewhat chaotic for you for awhile...and you had established fast friendships here with people happy to help you...cheer you up a bit.
Sleep on it.....
