Due to not being of the quality of wallpapers that we -try- to keep it was voted to only go to your personal gallery.

This is not ment as a kick in your face.

It's not the end of the world. (Though some see it that way...)

Keep making wallpapers, and you will succeed!

Wallpapers are moderated and not all Walls make it to the Gallery.  Your upload is in your Personal Page.

You are not alone. - https://forums.wincustomize.com/150760

So "bad quality" wallpapers do not make it to the actual gallery? Or wallpapers that are just voted to go to the personal gallery?

Don't delete it. Do as I do. Put a link to your personal gallery in all your uploads. That way, people who like your work can visit your gallery and grab walls that didn't make it to the public gallery.

 

I'm sure not everyone likes Picasso but his work is still there for those who do.

Wallpapers that aren't deemed high enough quality (for various reasons) go to your personal gallery. We all have them. Sometimes they rate low quality for reasons like, they may be too busy for useability. Maybe a tad blurry, if it's a photograph.  I think 3 mods vote on each wall.  I have personal page only walls, and I'm a master. So don't be discouraged. It happens to all of us.

Yeah, I just thought that my very recently uploaded wallpaper was one of my better ones yet it didn't even get accepted to the public gallery.

 

Oh well. 

 

And reading those uploading guidelines, I guess my wallpaper had too distracting colors, but not even getting it accepted to the public gallery feels kind of absurd since I'd say it's really top quality besides that and works great as a wallpaper. And it also feels kind of limiting in what kind of wallpapers you can make.

 

BUT, no worries, I have many other projects in the making that hopefully will get accepted

Your Solstice wallpapers are some of my favorites in our 'fine' wallpaper gallery.
Definite master quality, imo.

Nah, I don't like... it's too busy and I find the colours distracting.  Do away with either the black or the white and you might have something.

 yeah I know what you mean I uploaded many wallpapers and only to find them gone to my personal gallery, just like this one, don't take them down cos of low ratings I know you may feel like it but please don't . think of it as an incentive to keep going, and you will get there in the end. I know I have felt many a time of just giving up and not doing anymore, but its the satisfaction of seeing a finished project  up on a sight  and other peoples  kind words of  what they think of it, that keeps me going. please feel free to see my works click this link and you will see what I mean. I know I have been down hearted meany a time and even to the point that who ever voted had something against me or they had their favorite people's works  things like that. anyway after talking to people they told me the same as what has been said to you.

Quoting starkers, reply 15and unlike crayons, they're free.

......for the picking.

And like apples, once they're picked they can't be unpicked.
