Hahahaha Joe ...it has a name: developer... Can't help but thinking of tabletennis. I think P(i)NG wins the P(o)NG... And since I like tabletennis....
I know you did Jafo, and it blew me away. You have to understand that I am not making a case for myself. If you will, I look generally, and my opinion is that with an initial 6 or 7, you might get people to rate sooner than the admins having too much to say at first glance.
A suggestion would be to give skins an initial rate. If admins approve walls and they really like it, give it a 7 so that visitors can see these. Give it an initial 6 if they think the work is worth having it in the library and to the ones that can pass moderation. Same for non-moderated skins. That way there would be room for people to rate.
Also, I have seen too many skins rated "10", after first upload and first rate. There is really no room for people to vote then anymore, you know how psyche works.
Me thinks, that, at the moment indeed people vote to downgrade or upgrade the current rating. Paxx, the world is not perfect The way ratings have been given in the past year made me conclude not to rate much. I haven't been impressed with a few high rated skins, and I feel being harassed if I sincerely comment on it. Especially when it comes to comment on admins/skinners with a "name". Oh well.
Just some fact finding: And when it is revealed, those stats would be to view for us all, including what is called "raw" downloads wouldn't it?
UhOh..Until the secret is revealed of how the downloads are generated it's all a wild guess of how I guess.
all of us make up the wincustomize web-site. But it belongs to the admins. Better: in charge...Me thinks WC belongs to SD...
Ah, that's good to hear shmoop. Anyway, you are too hooked on this skinning I bet. I have never been in the top d/l and never been in the top authors. That's because I share what I made with pleasure and am not really interested in the status of popularity. That's another category where too many people make too many similar look alikes (my opinion..flame me for that if someone feels the need). As you say in your skin comment, if you make one person happy with your WB, you have succeeded. I think
Phew I was REALLY concerned my orange glasses hid those WC dl stats...The difference is stunning though...over a 1000
it's about the top downloads styl..
I should give more credit to Hippy: 5. Meltdown Hippy 1292
Or is this RAW download? And has Shmoop linked the skin to her site..Dunno
Skin Author Downloads Yesterday 1. Digital Headache CCS ^^Gabriel 1601 2. Lullaby Shmoopy! 1566 3. Defcon Apocalypse_67 1409 4. Windows Reloaded m0rphium 1297 5. Meltdown Hippy 129 I guess Shmoop is right!!
I saw Shmoop standing there on 2nd place indeed, did a second click and wanted to copy and paste it into this box, but now it has somehow changed..Duh..Weird.
Doing a little research on the downloads in WB...now OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhh.....
I think Shmoop is not meaning this at all. I think it's a trick to lure everyone into serious comments. LMAO...Great imitation of some other threads..
It's never particularly clever to underestimate the moderators' intelligence Hmmm, why take it that way? It's not an underestimation, but more an appeal And with all the rest I agree with you Jafo. I haven't looked to the guidelines lately, I have a few question marks about it still. Maybe I'll mail you about it. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/miam.gif" border=0 ALIGN="abs
Precisely, nobody is omnipotent, and that should make you humble in the position you have.
I was just saying that. although you may comment and discuss submissions, your wisdom is not omnipotent. Sure, you are able to sift the better handlers of proggies, but this is as, you always have stated a skinning site. Too many times I read "art". Most of the time I replace that with "skin/colour combination". And yeah, some walls are art.
On the other hand, moderators are not "God".
I think CA reacted pretty neat. Fantasy world? Yeah, everybody needs some escapism...that's why you have music, movies, paintings etc etc etc....It was his first encounter with this, so....I remember a loooooooong way back how I reacted <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/mad.gif" border=0 ALIGN="abs
Any artist by trade will tell you he/she appreciates constructive criticism. There is always room for improvement. Clark is the proof. Good on you Jafo
