What amount of contribution will make me a level 3 user?

Wednesday, August 13, 2003 by Kuala | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I don't have any Stardock products, so I obviously have to follow the suggestions laid out in the site if I want to become a level three user. It said that I must contribute by making skins, posting msgs, etc. Exactly how much must I contribute so I can have the ability to rate wallpapers???

If you have to ask that type of question, then your not that sincere and you probably wont ever make that level. Posting dribble on the message board won't get you anywhere. By posting on the boards, they mean helping your fellow members. Talking them thru using windowblinds, cursors and so forth. Being an asset. Hope you understand what I'am trying to tell you.

Yeah I understand what you're saying. I think I misrepresented myself on my first post. It's not that I don't want to contribute, it's just I have never uploaded anything before, and my work doesn't exactly match up to most of the Wincustomize artists. I'm really apprehensive. Unfortunately I can't offer much help in the forums with problems as I don't have any Stardock programs.

You could always get a wincustomize subsciption (and yes they take check/money orders) and then be a level 4 user!

The Old Crab finds that if you leave a plain brown envelope containing many $20 bills in it at this address https://www.stardock.com/order.asp it will do wonders for your type of predicament. >

What does really give the user level ? Dont see any difference between level 1 and level 2 and level 3.. maybe rating skins ?

Kuala, there are two types of "ranking". There is the class and the level.

Classes are:
- Visitor
- Citizen
- Apprentice
- Master Apprentice
- Journeyman
- Master
Visitors are just anonymous users without an account. Apprentice and up can rate skins and have no bandwidth limitations, Journeymen can upload without moderation. To get promoted you must participate in the site. Upload considerably to the site with valuable artwork, help people, comment on artwork, participate on the messageboard on a regular basis.

Levels:
- Level 1: Equivalent to the visitor class. Anonymous browsers without a Wincustomize account.
- Level 2: Anybody who creates a Wincustomize account
- Level 3: Anybody who purchased any Stardock product, or Premium suite
- Level 4: Wincustomize paying subscribers.

The main difference between classes and levels is that classes rank people's participation to the site, in personal involvement and artwork contributions, while the levels are purely financial contributions.

Thankyou everyone for your comments. I'll spend some time to learn how to better use Photoshop. Hopefully in the not too far future I will have something to display. Cheers.

...So what advantages do I have over a Level 2?

Dreamdesign3d...that can be the result/problem of nick changeing....a person needs to be noticed/recognized as contributing before being promoted....and you 'were' 'Pretender', I think....so the awareness is diminished by the change...

Since we're on the subject...

bliss980...How did you get promoted so fast?

You were here less than 24 hours and received an 'Apprentice' promotion...How?

I wonder to who?...and what kind of kissin' up?

Strange that someone can be promoted so quickly with virtualy no contribution what so ever...It took me 9 months to be an 'Apprentice'
