Anyone have any reason to reject these backgrounds and such that I've created? I spent like half an hour uploading them, and all but ONE ugly stupid one was accepted.
   They all repeat...fine, thats my obsession. |

If you want the exact reason why it was rejected pm the person who rejected it. Because I mean all of us can say things but for exact reasons on why that person rejected them pm them.

You get a pm if its rejected or accepted. So whoever the pms from is the person that accepted it or rejected it.

If you submit something to cB, you get a PM from the moderator who reviewed it letting you know if it was accepted or rejected, so that's how you know.
Theoretically you should always get a reason why it was rejected in the rejection letter, but I have no idea if it's actually being done. =\ |

I can tell you that the ones with the dots were rejected because you have your site name on the bottom of the image... if someone used that as a background and repeated it, your site name would be all over their background.
Why would someone want to use that? |

Well that is pretty rediculous. They should at least tell you why so you can improve on your creations. I know they probably get a lot of submissions, but come on. If you're going to run the site, do it properly. |

If you're going to run the site, do it properly yeah but they spend a lot of time they could answer them but they dont i dn why but they just never seem to answer whether they don't think its important or they just don't feel like dealing with it |

Example of the usual PM from me:
QUOTE Thanks for your submission! Unfortunately, it was not accepted. Here are a few comments and suggestions that will let you know why it was rejected and what to do next time.  - Could have better image quality, it doesn't look like it was saved properly. - I'd like it more if it had a border, I really think that'd make a big difference. - The edges around the font are jagged, and that means it hasn't been anti-aliased. Depending on what image editing program you're using, I know there are plenty of tutorials that will teach you how to do this, so I hope that helps. Again, thanks for sending in your work and we look forward to seeing your contributions in the future! Honestly, that didn't take me very long. However, I would like to point out that at this very moment there are over 230 graphics waiting in the queue. It gets pretty grueling after doing like thirty. |

Guilt as charged for not writing in resons. Let's put it this way, if I think major improvement is needed I'll put down the reason usually. If it's just low image quality or something, I leave it be because I figure you know what's wrong. You can always reply to the PM and ask for specifics... (If you show me the graphic. I honestly don't remember most things.) Some things aren't even layouts or scripts or whatever. I mostly prune the queue anyways. Like the angel of death. ugh... >.<"
By the way, the first and second are rather... Gaudy. I wouldn't want something like that for my background.  The point of a background is to be aethetically enhancing, not eye-catching nessecarily. Usually you want the content to be the focus, not the graphics. -shrug- They seem very detracting.
