Alright. I have nothing personal against these designs, or their designers. In fact, some of these designers have other great layouts. However, I think that the ones on this list are EITHER...
A. Too simple for a DIV layout (not much content either) B. Too simple for a Standard layout (no banners or contact tables...) C. Low image quality D. Inadequate designing Granted, some are better or worse than others. Are we adhering to what was discussed ealier about slightly raising quality standards as we go? I know that was a topic that all of us agreed on before I stepped down. Whether or not the mods are, it seems as if the quality of some layouts accepted is below the standards that we had. http://www.createblog.com/layouts/code.php?id=25363 http://www.createblog.com/layouts/code.php?id=25268 http://www.createblog.com/layouts/code.php?id=25263 http://www.createblog.com/layouts/code.php?id=25262 http://www.createblog.com/layouts/code.php?id=25260 http://www.createblog.com/layouts/code.php?id=25294 http://www.createblog.com/layouts/code.php?id=25273 http://www.createblog.com/layouts/code.php?id=25215 Take it or leave it, but that's what I think. Does the community feels the same way I do? *NOTE: I paid no attention to who accepted these. |

I've always felt that despite the differing quality tastes of all the moderators who accept layouts, createBlog has always been a place where you can find the most exceptional and cutting edge and innovative layouts. The most eye-pleasing, simply the best in cyberspace. I've always agreed that default style layouts should not be accepted, we can leave those to the lesser websites. createBlog's got some real talent, y'all really do. I've had my share of layouts (even DIV layered ones) rejected, I'm not bitter, life goes on. The fact is that we should have more than one person review the layout submission. Do the reviewers judge holostically? I know I wouldn't. Because of differing tastes, and the whole debate between whether we want more hits or higher quality layouts, I believe we should expand the reviewing staff, or have some sort of a showcase of how y'all grade.
