Rejected Theme, no Details
What's the deal?
Monday, July 22, 2013 by RealityRipple | Discussion: Skinning
Dear RealityRipple,
Thank you for your recent upload of your In The Dark for FireFox
Unfortunately your upload has not met our guidelines and has been rejected.
However we do look forward to your future submissions.
Sincerely,
The WinCustomize Staff
Items rejected are called exiled. Exiling means the item is being removed from the site for infractions of the sites guidelines
If an item is rejected please refrain from posting questions about as to why in the forums, as generally these types of posts and answers can be embarrassing for all involved. You may PM a Mod and request a reason or help if you did not already receive an email detailing the cause of the rejection.
Tips on uploading can be found here.
It'd be nice if there was a list of Mods somewhere. Or if PMs didn't go unheeded.... Or for that matter, if the rejection reason would be mentioned in the E-Mail.

I hate to jump in and complicate anything but.....
It seems the ability to search for anything on the site is quite out of sorts. I have attempted to search for rainlendar skins that match particular blinds, as well as docs and rightclicks...and more often than not get a blank page as a result. Often, I can find the skin on Wincusatomize if I Google it when an in-site search fails.
I have tried different browsers, clearing the cookies, etc. and it doesn't change the fact that WC's search of itself seems broken on more than just a few occasions.
For example...when I search 'Garnet Storm' I don't even get the windowblind. The page reports back ....
Your search returned no results.
I'm not sure if this could account for the issue folks are having finding the FF skins and apologize in advance if it's off topic. It's been bugging me for a bit and would love to see it fixed. It certainly would help people to 'complete' a theme as it were as well as improve the sites overall usability and rep.

As mentioned...it shows [to me] AS 'DELETED BY USER' which is essentially only something the 'owner' can do. [Admins only do so on request].
If you wish it to be publicly accessible again I can restore it, at which stage you may then be able to effect an update.

Just a note: The Firefox gallery is considered abandoned as nobody has uploaded there since 2008. It doesn't show in search or the gallery lists.

I don't know about FF skins, but usually, when a skin is rejected, it goes to the author's personal gallery, does it not?
Or are those skins that are rated low, but still approved?

If "Explore" at the top of the page is a gallery list, it shows in mine.

Hover over Explore on the home page Spencer. It'll show you what you have it set to show. If you don't see FF, hit customize at the bottom of that list and add it.
See reply #23.

Looks like I just broke a five year stagnation on the Firefox theme list.

Eh, I'm no aestheticist, I'm a developer. In The Dark is the only foray into pure visual development I've ever done, and it's anti-aesthetic.

We do anti-aesthetic. Just view my first uploads. Yuck!

Well Reality Ripple, I was going to give you some karma for coming through this with a smile at the end, but, when I access your karma page, it is just a blank white area, are you sure you exist?
You wanna see yuk, look at A.D. or Vines.

Oh my, I doubt if the forums or gallery for that matter will ever be visited by the OP again.
We just got off to a rocky start, it is worth the aggravation for the most part, good outlet for artwork and a nice place to hang around, grin and bare it, soon you will be one of us. Just drink the kool-aid,lol.DT1
