Check on your skins page, if the wallpaper is there waiting approval, then it has not been moderated, if it doesnt appear on the list, then it was denied.
Only the work accepted will get a notification. Due to hate mail sent in the past by persons whose work was rejected, the admins opted not to send rejection notes.

| Is it WC's policy to not let a person know that his or her work was denied and why? |

I believe that most of the people who submit walls have one of eleven characteristics (or more than one):
1. Thick skin. So the rejection doesn't penetrate the exterior.
2. Feathers. So the rejection rolls off the submitter like water off of a ducks' back.
3. A masochistic personality. So that the undignified "disappearing" from the list, brings about a warm feeling.
4. An artists heart. So that one of their desires is for their work of art to be viewed and shared by others.
5. An ignorant mind. So they don't know that they will spend hours on a work that is just clicked away.
6. A desire to contribute. So they keep trying over and over and over and over and over and over and....
7. Misdirected talent. So they should be spending their time doing something other than waiting on wall acceptance.
8. Misdirected lack of talent. So they should be somewhere else on a Friday night.
9. A desire to learn. So they buck up and think that their efforts are actually getting them somewhere.
10.Misguided thought process.. So they actually think that acceptance here means something.
11.Carte Blanche acceptance of any upload. So they pity the others ... or not

SD and A67, I appreciate you taking time to respond. Me being new here, I didn't know exactly how things work here at WC. I have seen so many different qualities of work posted on this site, some IMHO not worthy of being posted on WC and many other works outstanding (I'm not just talking about wallpapers) that I assumed that the only way my work would not be accepted would be if it was a plaguerized work or it was something not graphically suitable for a general audience. I am not in the least upset about my work not being accepted and posted, but rather had felt that WC was a bit on the lame side for not providing any feedback at all. But now that you two have filled me in on how things work here, it's all good now. Thanks.

Crotale: I still get wallpapers rejected. Don't be fooled by user levels, either. 
Told you so William

It is not my intention to whine or badmouth WC, but if this is any indication of how the organization treats its "customers" then I doubt that I will submit any future works. I do understand the time and effort it takes to manage a site like this and the process of reviewing submissions to be posted. However, it is rather insulting not to get any feedback at all after submitting one's work, even if it is not the Mona Lisa.
Am I being too harsh or critical, or am I just impatient?
