Rejected Layouts Suggestion, (No, I'm not whining about anything) :P Options

[CrimsonSkyGraphi...]

Hey there,

I have a suggestion about rejected layouts. I understand you have a certain quality you have to meet for which layouts you accept, and that you have only a certain amount of server space so not every one can be accepted.

Buut. What about if Createblog had a "Rejected Layouts" section. Where you can maybe keep the last 50 layouts, and people can go and see them and maybe comment on them. That way..it gives the members of CB a chance to get a say in which layouts get on the site. Like, if a layout gets enough positive feedback..it can be accepted afterwards. It might also solve some of the issues people have when they question the standards the mods accept/reject with.

If the layout doesnt get enough good feedback by the time the Rejected section is full..then it gets dropped. But it seems fair, doesnt it? Let me know what you all think. ^_^

I have never submitted anything, so I hope I'm not out of my place here -
I would actually like to see the layouts that are rejected. I don't think of them as rejections, they just weren't selected. Yeah, perhaps that might mean the same thing to certain folks, I just don't see it as something exclusively negative.

Of course the mods are capable and trustworthy to make those decisions, I don't think anyone has questioned that. However, the collective decision making of the mods might differ from different audiences. I would love to see them all though (if the designer is so willing).

I agree that a level of maturity must be practiced though. If you choose to have your layout out in the open, then you have to be open to criticism (you may be complemented as well).

Anyway, that's my 25 cents.
