Curious kitten…
Friday, November 22, 2002 by Angel_Wings | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
*Deep breath*
Well, I’m just wondering aloud but if anyone is remotely up to answering my questions pretty please (with sugar on top) do.
First but not foremost:
Does anyone know exactly what the hierarchal order is at wincustomize.com if indeed there is one? I’m stumped as to the order and meanings of labels/titles like, “Journeyman”, “Avatar”, “Vagrant”, etc.
Secondly, is the skinning community mostly a male-dominated thing (just seems that way by my generalized and not deep analysis) and do you guys feel comfortable with women participating here?
Thirdly, what does your “score” mean as far as the voting on people’s skins and works? What does that actually mean and does it affect anything as far as your status on WC ?
Oh, and I have a teensy suggestion…maybe not a great one but I was thinking it might be a nice idea to have the ability to upload your stuff to WC and then have a way of checking it to be sure it’s okay even during the moderating process to save the moderators headaches with bad uploads etc.? I know sometimes I second guess myself and I often think, “Dang, wish there was a button to preview my .zip and screenshot etc.” I know you can always upload again with the “update” button but I hate doing that during the moderating process if I don’t have to. I know my suggestion is probably a major hassle to change at WC but it was just a suggestion I’m tossing into the proverbial “idea” hat.
Well, muchos thanks in advance to anyone who took the time to read this and try to answer any of the above.
Smiles,

P.S. () Level numbers…what is the highest user level number? 
P.S.S.

The only question I would be qualified to answer would be the male/female part. No, it doesn't bother me. One of my best friends in skinning was Tananda, we worked on a lot of stuff together, lot of hours on ICQ bouncing ideas off each other. If anything it doesn't seem that females are as comfortable, who could blame them, lol. I have never once heard anyone measure a person's sex against their skinning, though, positively or negatively. There are too many damned good female skinners. Wish there were more.

Thank you for the male perspective bakerstreet
I really would like to try my hand at skinning because I think it would be a fun new challenge to me and I love to learn something new and I love a good challenge.

Try the second one, but I meant the Windowblinds skin, not the wall. It's on the home page.

He's much too humble with all that talent but I suppose the most talented artists can afford to be humble since their talent speaks so dang loud!

I realized that anyone who actually *Does* know all of the above has probably at one time or another answered all those questions ‘gosh’ knows how many times... Sowwy
