Why are so many of my wallpapers being rejected from wincustomize.com?

The only two walls that have been approved for me lately are the worst ones I've done… I know there are better ones that are being rejected… mybe its just me. Or the politics of this site?

80% or more of all wallpapers submitted are rejected............. I find it less than humorous when people accuse of us of politics concerning wallpapers. How silly is that?

haha, a lot of my wallpapers that i was sure were going to get passed didnt pass, in fact, none of them did. its just that wallpapers have to look really, really good to pass moderation. oh, and no need to be sorry, every gets a free strike.

pssst (don't tell anybody else but here is a surefire way to make a wall that will pass moderation..are you listening?...good)

steps:
1) find a picture of britney spears...the less clothed the better
2) find a picture of a dolphin.
3) open up the graphics editor and edit the dolphin and the britney pic so they aren't on a background.
4) change the dolphins hue to pink
5) now find a nice sunset on the beach pic, or draw one yourself...the quality of this pic doesn't matter
6) resize the beach pic to what ever size you want the wallpaper to be...note you only want to make one size and one wallpaper as more sizes and choices confuse the moderator
7) Apply a 20 pxl blur on the beach pic.
8) edit in britney near the fron with here legs fading into the sand.
9) edit in the pink dolphin so it looks like it is jumping out of the sea.
10) draw a very big peace sign in the sky above the dolphin using purple and the paintbrush tool.
11) write at the top: I like dolphins they are the best, but what I really like are Britney's Breasts
12) now flatten the image
13) zip it and another text file explaining why you like britneys breasts in elaborate detail so the moderator has something to read and forgets to moderate your wall letting it slip through.
14) submit it with the name: "The Best Wallpaper Ever"

I guess it would kinda look like this one: http://skins2.wincustomize.com/Jafo/wallpapers/Trapped8.jpg ... or maybe you have to be an admin to get something like that passed.

i don't even get the nice little rejection letter anymore... that used to make me feel a little better. I have a feeling they don't want to see me at the top again...

Actually Wstaylor, that wallpaper made by Jafo was created as a joke and as an example of what NOT to do in a design, and also as a response to many posts from people that wanted to know why their wallpapers werent posted.

astaylor, think about it, at least a thousand people sumbit stuff a week, now you think that they have time to send the email out to every person?

/me hopes jafo or one of the moderators notices his noble actions and awards him with a subscribtion

i still gotta get that...

dont worry about it, start with something easier like logons or bootskins, and then go into WB and then try walls, you will have alotta experience by then.

nice walls, i see what you mean...

this site is the best of the best.. its not like other sites that will take any uploaded image ..you gotta crank out a really original image to get it on here. WC is strict as heck on the types of walls they hang ..but thats prolly why they are known as the best .. unlike other sites where u have to sift through page after page of medocre walls to find a good one ..here they are filtered yes it may mean more of your walls are denied .. but when one makes it u know it was chozen pros......

I wouldn't expect anything as a given, and the link above would make the exception...

I expect you will have to contact an admin and possibly find you do not have the ability to post for a bit...

Then you can explain it to an admin and maybe *your* ability to post won't be rejected...

let alone the mediocre walls in the other link.
