I think we've stumbled onto something here... Well everyone, what is the worst thing you have ever submitted and how many downloads does it have?

I've only submitted one WB skin (So far). So I guess it's my crummiest and best at the same time. 1181 dl.

Still Trapped in Bryceworld....1602 downloads which is rather sad, really, considering the 'point' of its posting.....
[BTW....if anyone wishes to post an image of their worst....make it the small preview and NOT the full size image]

Who was/were the moron(s) who bumped its rating up to an 8?

Think there is no such thing as "the crummiest". It's all part of developping skills. I reckon in time we all look back at works we thought at that time were great but now at least do make you frown

I am still baffled as to how my original Capricorn windowblind made it through mod. It has been erased from existance now. Just like pinchecl said, I thought it was good at the time but after going back and looking at it, yuck. It was a cause for permanent deletion. It had around 2500 downloads though.

Actually horizon you could use the second one as a basis for a golfing windowblind

no one gets it, you might as well take it down hehe
jafo you actually used the lens flare correctly, though. it looks like the sun. the thing would do would be to use it as a reflection, which would be completely incorrect and an accurate display of how people use it

Yes, WOM, I read the comments. ...I was looking more for 'names' rather than vague 'clues' as to who rated it.

https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=9&SkinID=193 This was submitted by me, for my brother. He was really...umm...insane to think it would do well, and there was going to be a sequel. Nothing forthcoming as yet.
