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 )

Shake it off Threi, at 18 it's all hormones. Even the ladies here understand the facts. Now that you know, you can avoid making the same mistake twice.

to tell you the honest truth, i really didnt want to submit this skin, but i felt it looked really great IMO


Then add something to the shot to obscure the wall a bit ..and reupload it. I have had SS's rejected for that reason alone...I got the impression that that was more the reason it was removed..But to insinute that a fairy wall would get you a higher rating was a bit of a pot shot at me. Whether intended or not..thats how it looked...

And it was a moderator that removed it. Im betting it was a male. So what does that tell you ?

Jeeezee Threi..you do tons of great SS's. Why do one you know is going to result in this ?

I figured maybe a scantily clad dragon, too would have it approved for viewing but, then again maybe not.

Definitely a rejected image, here. More for PR reasons than anything else

Maybe you might try answering the question instead of ignoring it and accusing me of attacking you, WHICH I DID NOT!

I rejected the screenshot. The photograph needed to be more obscured (a copyright issue) and contained inappropriate subject matter (in this case something likely to cause offence). Needless to say the screenshot itself was unremarkable and will not be missed

I'm usually a butt man... this probably won't matter... ok, maybe it does a little... just make sure a breast is showing next time... please... skins... breasts...


I used to have a M.A.S.H. set when I was a kid you know.

I also like the TV show Airwolf.

You guys remember Airwolf? Great show. Great show indeed.

What's your point? Airwolf? Breasts? I'm missing something, Joetheblow.

joetheblow I'm not going to quote your comments about breasts, etc...they were inappropriate the first time around. That sort of thing is personal and this shouldn't be the place to air such preferences.
