Waiting

Saturday, April 30, 2005 by Popemobile | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I don't know how many times I've submitted my skin now but there are no longer any photographs in it, this means that you can't bitch at me for not having written permission from the photographers, even if I have never used any copyrighted photographs.

So right now I'm waiting (once again) for my skin to be added to the WB category here at wincustomize and right now I'm wondering, how many times will I have to spam you before you get the point?
Erk.

A change of tact [and/or attitude] might be the order of the day here, Popemobile...

You seem to think it is your right that your skin be accepted here.. ~whereas it is actually a privelege. You need to note that this is a privately owned site which is doing YOU a favor by hosting your works (when & if accepted)

No-one here can be forced to display your skin, it will be moderated and accepted or rejected, just like all others who submit skins (etc) to the site.

Threats of spam to make your point will not gain you any ground (nor allies) ...quite the contrary would happen. You'd just find yourself banned from the site.

I would suggest having a good read of the T.O.S. [twice] then think about how you are presenting yourself.

Giving respect will earn you respect ...some food for thought.

Have a nice day

My skin has never breacjed any rules of any kind, this is because my skin has never included any thrid party material that was subject to any copyright laws.

And now even when I have removed all third party material from my skin it is still rejected, why?

[Edit:] Well actually, it's been rejected once since I removed all folder backgrounds (even the one I made myself, just in case), right now I've submitted it for the second time since that.

Let's see , that means this is the seventh time (approximately) that I have submitted my skin.

We don't 'bitch'.  We determine the rules by which a submission is accepted or not.  It is our prerogative, not yours....

In that case, why has my skin been rejected even when I have followed the rules?

And why has it been rejected once even when there couldn't possibly have been any rules that I had broken?

Conversations such as this are better left via email, not aired in public.

That way no-one becomes the target of a 'flame' through half-truths and mis-understandings...

Popemobile, you have mail. As Jafo said, please contact a moderator when you have a question like this.

So basically, instead of me not being able to say anything without my skin being rejected or me getting banned by typing something in this forum I have to do it over e-mail instead?

In that case my e-mail is [email protected], I only chose maktoob for this account because someone exiled my last account due to me being the only one in this place with some effing integrity.

Popemobile, tread lightly. You are free to express your feelings on the forum, but you must do so without attacking people. When you have questions regarding why your skin has been rejected, it is in your own best interest to consult a moderator in private and not discuss it with the world.

As I said, an email has been sent to the address associated with your account, under which you submitted your skin. Read it and heed it if you want your skin approved.

In a word, yes.
