Keith - you forget the -most- important thing about your desktop too... do -YOU- like it?

Yes?

Then who cares if you get a 10 or a 1?
I'm sure my desktop shots would get quite low ratings - they're not quite minimalistic enough to be truly minimalistic - but many would find them to be quite boring. I don't care. I like 'em.

did you take that last post away, I know it is a pain to look at JUST SS's, but I do enjoy them and would like to have something to do with this site.
Like I said before, I'm not able to make skins, so instead of auto approve---- how about a rating

Who?Probably me......I get to see one hell of a lot of them and generally rate them between 4 and 8 or, in other words 'mediocre', as they are JUST screenshots.People with auto-posting privileges get a '6' automatically so where exactly is your problem?...


I have auto-posting privileges, but now with the SS section only taking only 8s and above, Im out, and not sure if any one actually looked at it.

I was refering to the first post #24 I entered. I had a picture of the SS and asked for people to rate it.

No....'Citizens' do not have auto posting privileges....that comes through advancement or promotion.

Your Screenshots, etc go through moderation and will receive a rating for public view initally by an admin.....most of these will be between 4 and 8, with the occasional one higher.

Current loading caused by server crashes may impact on the viewable 'level' to the public to keep traffic/bandwidth manageable, that is all...

Oh....now I follow....

Public requests for ratings and comments are commonly referred to as 'spamming' and frowned upon.

It's surprising just who considers it appropriate to trawl for ratings and/or comments....but it's decidedly 'not cricket' [as the English would say]...

I like the screenshot section too, and have used it several times for the purposes of feedback.

But when I see the average shot getting 20 views or less, I have to wonder if the screeshot section is realy worth whatever bandwidth and hard drive space it takes up.

Maybe it's time to dump that section?

Alpado1...Wincustomize.com does have standards...and they apply to the language used in posts equally important as other site content.

Makes the place a family site that way...

If they get a 2, they shouldn't have gotten through Moderation.
