The Amazing Disappearing Screenshot
Sunday, November 13, 2005 by Threi | Discussion: WinCustomize Site Issues
Steps to make a screenshot disappear right in front of your eyes (Works for suscribers too)
1. Find a windowblind, winamp skin, object dock skin, and a wallpaper you like (widgets you can use if you want)
2. Spend some time until you think the screenshot is perfect.
3. Change the wallpaper to a girl in a bikini
4. Submit on wincustomize
5. Wait for an email that says your screenshot has been approved
6. Go to the screenshot section of wincustomize.com
Voila! Your screenshot now has mysteriously dissappeared (It may have been rated low, but you can see lower-rated skins in the screenshot department)
(Huh, its cool to take frustration and change it into creativity
)

Last screenshot you uploaded appears to be a very ordinary one with an apparent fixation on scantily-clad women...[though this one only had half the 'bikini']. It's there, so I have no idea what this thread is about.
Checking once more I see it's been removed....probably a good call.
The trick about screenshots is to show a desktop of interest, not some objectified woman in a wallpaper that is insufficiently obscured to protect the photographer's distribution rights.
There's quite a few female skinners and general site members who probably would prefer a more mature approach to their portrayal.
"I know im guna automatically get a low rating cause of the content, but i feel that my desktop is worth submitting. Thankx to all authors and PEACE THREI"
That really says it all, doesn.t it? [and that's a rhetorical question].....

aaahhh. I get it. Step 2 stops at thinking the screenshot is perfect. Step 3 changed all that and screwed it up.

I think if you were to change step 3 to a troll in a bikini it would not be deleted, but it might make for some ill skinners. 
Then again, some might like scantily clad stump dwellers.

But what if the resident troll prefers a one-piece suit instead? Should have a choice as to how he's portrayed

You're a class act Threi!! 
The community should have a say, too. Certainly no thongs

You know Threi..I have given your SS's more 5 ratings than others. I do not not rate nude cheesey poses of women . Period. Im a girl .I do not like SS's of naked women that look like they belong in a Playboy centerfold....I spend sometimes 4 days making one SS. I make them for ME..and I upload them for a few that like what I do...I had asked that my shots not be put up for daily shots. Im not here to compete with anyone. If you knew the the wall would get you a low rating then why put on the whingy act in a thread about it.

to tell you the honest truth, i really didnt want to submit this skin, but i felt it looked really great IMO. And just like you, i dont post any screenshots because i am here to compete with anyone, but because i feel that they look nice and that they should be shared with other people to see their opinion. If i feel that people are trashing a screenshot i feels looks like one of my best, of course im going to defend myself. This thread was just a joke to vent my frustrations, but i cant seem to get a break anywhere on this site

Absolutely not.....or he'd almost be starkers
But they're not the ones we need to worry about....hadn't quite warmed up enough...but the summer ones
Then we'd be afraid, we'd be very afraid
Yeah, there's plenty of other sites on the WWW to go to for that sort of thing.
