Not a shoddy fractal!

Monday, August 31, 2009 by mickeko | Discussion: Wallpapers

Apparently shoddy fractals look better on the featured list of wallpapers than my photographic artwork. But I don't really mind that.

I'm not even going to bother trying to do "better", because there was nothing wrong with my image.

Obviously that's just my opinion, and the mod, who thought it was not on par with the tons of abstract fractals on display, disagree.

Anyway, there's a wallpaper in my gallery that would love some comments... Don't just tell me what you like about it, also tell me what sucks (and the other way around too )...

and the mod

Currently all walls are voted on by all the active mods. No individual mod decides.

As I understand it the new site will eliminate wallpaper moderation for the most part so you may want to re-submit after the new site comes online.

Oh, I got it backward then.

I'm not going to reupload anything just to make a feature page. I'm not very bothered by the fact that I got "shot down" either. You can't feature everything. I made this post primarily to make people realise I have stuff in my gallery (though it's not so much).

If that is the reason then you probably should have tallked more about your walls, picked a better title for the thread and added a link to you WC Home Page or Gallery.

I think it did bother you and you do mind because you are proud of your the work you do on your walls.  Not a thing wrong with that.

True, it bothers me a bit, but I'm not very bothered.

I did consider linking my gallery, but I decided against it because... well... I didn't feel like it really.

Well, obviously you do, other wise you wouldn't have posted this.

Don't worry, Po.
We'll still be keeping an eye out for rippers and anything 'illegal'.

That's good, but not my real concern.

Mickeko - I downloaded it and gave it a look.  I agree....I much prefer your upload to the fractals that make it every day (I'm not a fan of fractals, they bore me).  However, my tastes are rarely in sync with the mod's tastes.   I left a comment, BTW.

I HATE all the fractals.  But that is just my opinion and I'm welcome to it.  I'm not sure I like the un-moderated wallpaper idea either.  Have you seen the crap that makes it into the wallpaper galleries at other places?  Here goes WC, down the toilet in that respect.

Oh GAWD... Lookout for the onslaught of Brittney Dolphin Windows 7 walls and every variation thereof..

Not to mention the " Bikers wearing diapers chasing nurses dressed like smurfs 7" series.

So we will have to sift through a bunch of crap to find a good wall? That will be a step backwards in my opinion.

Thanks for the comments. I'll upload some original photo walls too, it probably looks less dull to anyone who's not as familiar with Stockholm as I am. After all, (IMHO) it's the best picture I managed to get with the camera I had back then, it's worth it.

Well, that would be lots of "fun" but it's not going to happen. They may be uploaded, but they won't stay for long.

I would, but if I shoot myself in the foot/feet any more, I won't have a leg to stand on.

No more moderating for wallpapers! So I can upload a black screen, then a blue one, then a green one. And when I run out of colours I can vertically flip the black one and re-upload. Please keep wallpaper moderation, please!
