LAME!!!
Friday, January 7, 2005 by IMAGEOD | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
people know what they are doing is removing my skins from the visible library and its not fair, they said they were doing it and why, yet no1 cares. I think this system is rigged, because only people with a user level of 4 and higher can rate and that means that they are subscribers and or skinners who want to hold other skinners as down as possible. People dont even download my skins anymore they just click one. Look at the comments at https://www.wincustomize.com/ViewSkin.aspx?SkinID=1289&LibID=25&comments=1 im sick of people just clicking 1. I think there should be a few more rules so people in 'power' dont hold all the cards, i think that you should state why you are rating the skin the way you are rating it, that you should only get to rate 1 skins per artist per day, that people who abuse ratings should lose thier user level, and that skins with a rating of 2 are lower are not hidden by default . Ive made several posts trying to get staff attention yet i continue being ignored. Most the nasty comments i recieve are about my NICK, i find that to be very stupid, what does my name have to do with my skins.

IMG*D with comments like you said #30 no wonder people rate your stuff low , you have an attitude to everything everybody says when established skinners give you their opinions and try to get you to improve your stuff you retaliate with a rude remark ,you even do this to non-skinners. I gave you my opinion once and you called me obscene names and was very rude .You do have talent you just need to improve on it and yes your nick is offensive. But good luck and GOD bless!

That comment along with the rest of that paragraph was enough to make me mad. It is not wise to mince words with the wise my friend. All that happens is you look like more of a fool.
As for your nick - It needs to be changed. It is VERY offending.
As far as your skins - they need alot of work. Looks like all you did was 5 minute jobs on each.
As far as your ratings: Only way to make them better is to improve your work. I, too, have low ratings on my work. But after alot of feedback to improve my skins I did. And I still am.
So - improve your skins and CHANGE THAT NICK!!

...So now you know the deal, IMG*D ...what say you sit back for a few, ponder it ...and LEARN from it.
...continuing in this vein is just gonna get your ass booted from the site. Might I suggest you step away from the 'puter for a couple of days, and spend it reflecting on how YOU'VE treated people here.
....do unto others, lad. (respect begat's respect)

I agree with just about everything everyone else has said here. It's painful to look through the cursorxp library because it's littered with horrible scenes of torture. I actually did raise my star rating from 2 to 3 just so I wouldn't have to be doomed to look at them. That whole library is disgraceful it's in such a state of horror. Personally I'm not a christian nor do I believe in god, but I do find your name a bit offensive because it portrays this sense of egotism and perfection where there obviously is none. When I first saw this topic I thought something had actually been done and your submissions were actually deleted from the library altogether, was about to cheer....but alas, they were only "removed" in the sense that people couldn't really see them because of the ratings.
The simple truth is, like the others have said, your submissions are AWFUL and need work. Your attitude stinks and you discredit anyone's opinion just because they have no submissions, what makes you better than those who haven't submitted a skin? I'd rather have no submissions at all than 70 god-awful monstrosities. Just because we might not have uploaded a skin does not mean we don't know good work and quality when we see it.

IMGOD5552666,
This post really got a lot of attention.
It is not clear what your ultimate goal is here at this site, but I went to the CursorXP library to see what all the fuss was about and found 3 cursor sets you had made.
My first impression was that the preview image needs to be improved so we can see your work clearly. It looks like the edges of most of your work were fairly jagged. I am just starting to make graphics and I have been told that jagged edges spell certain doom for an aspiring graphic artist. I have CursorXP installed, but don't use it very often due to the need for precise cursors in some of my programs. Therefore, I did not download them to give them a shot.
If I may, I would suggest creating a higher quality image for the preview and probably work on the jagged edges of the cursors. Also, have you tried using them for a substantial amount of time on your own machine? If you have, are you happy with them? I am very happy with a wallpaper I made and use currently, which did not make it through moderation. The way I look at it is this; if I am happy with it, great, if others like it, all the better - if no one else likes it, I am still happy with it.
Nickname:
The nickname is certainly bound to draw attention to itself and you. I don't know you personally, so I don't know if this is a statement of some kind, or just something you picked for no specific reason. I do have a good bit of experience in some arts that are based on a non-collision way of harmony with life, and this nickname seems bound for collision for all eternity to me. I don't know that anyone can really live comfortably with a lightning rod in their hands, if you catch my meaning.
Anyway, I thought a few comments from a fairly new member here (about 9 months) might be appropriate due to the fact that I am one of the many people that skinners are catering to.
Peace, and I hope you find a good solution to the issues you have raised.

You know, until the last bit about striking you down i really intended on giving some useful criticm and help but...
Check your email, there are some cursor that could be quite decent if only you spent just a little more time plishing things up. Especially your Blackened Glass set. It had potential but as other have said, the edges are not defined, the screenshot (and the majority of your screenshots need work) and your choice of colors need to be addressed as well - reference Fire and Ice.
There's room for improvement as there is in everyone's skin. There hasn't been a single one that is completely perfect straight out of the box...Tiggz's GT3 media player comes close, damn close
*coughs* but i digress.
Perhaps it's the choice of your editor, perhaps it's your lack of patience or skill, I don't know but every one of your cursor sets seems to be a mish-mash of shapes and look as if you lose interest halfway through.
Take some time, hone your skills, create the best cursor set you can and then try to top that before uploading again.

Blackened Glass 2 a review...
Style of cursor is too large for normal day to day use, though the color choice would allow it to go with many different desktops. The resize cursors are especially difficult to use since it is very hard to center the orb in the middle correctly to resize a window and the busy cursor has what appears to be an "L" on it. More appropriate for the busy cursor would be some sort of hourglass or animation. While I personally do not like this style of cursor, it's rather puffy in appearance, what really detracts me from it is the quality of the images used, not only in the cursors themselves, but the screenshot as well.
This author has assembled and uploaded some 50 plus assorted CursopXP packages and in general the reviews of each will be fairly similiar to the above I am guessing, but I will, unfortunately for me, take the time to download each one and review it. Unfortunately for this author, most will not. Either because of the amateurish nature of the previews, the childish behavior of this author both in his comments here and in the forums, or simply because they are offended by his nickname choice. Most will ignore this author's works entirely and when the day comes that he does create something worthy of appreciation, the majority of the community will have already written him off and not even notice. -Essencay
There you go IMG*D. What I really think after using, I'm guessing, your latest skin.
