createblog, is ridiculous Options

[synatribe]

okay so i submitted this layout called Perception like a week ago,
http://www.createblog.com/layouts/preview.php?id=27476 that. so i had to resubmit it only for the fact that I was blocking the ad then I resubmitted it showing the ad, then today someone rejects it again, but this time its a different person on the design staff, Im outraged not because of the fact that it was rejected but im outraged at why it was rejected and when it was rejected again, so highway4355 accepted the layout and out of all my submissions, this one got the most fave and the best feedback from the community, then another design mod rejects it saying that the layout looks dirty [THATS THE WHOLE POINT OF THE LAYOUT!!] I WAS GOING FOR A DIRTY GRUNGE FEEL, and Im mad that it got rejected A WEEK LATER, not even a day or 2 days a whole WEEK and a couple extra days [I THINK]it got over 80 faves the first 2 days, that more then those other accepted layouts I see, I personally thought for a few days that the standards were going down because some of the ones that I see are getting accepted are ridiculous, you can tell the CSS was stolen an tweaked. Anyway I think that the design staff is really unorganized and often to many times RUDE. thanks for reading.

I have to be honest here, I probably would have rejected it as well. I'm not sure I would have used the word "dirty", but I think that the layout as a whole is definitely messy looking. The TV thing in the middle looks neat, but my eyes have no idea where to focus. The brush you used on the picture (one of the brushes you used) looks like a quasi shadow, since the opacity is low and it's covering part of his nose. It just looks strange to me. The composition is overall schizophrenic.

I'm not saying that you need to abide by a strict rule of thirds, but there should be some type of graphic harmony in a layout, especially a div.

I'm sorry if that isn't what you want to hear, but I wouldn't feel right responding with a less than honest response.

I would have been inclined to point these things out to you in addition to pointing out the blocked ad. That being said, you have different human beings reviewing submissions and while we try to keep a standard, there are varying opinions and sometimes one would be more apt to reject or accept a submission than another.

As far as "rude", is there something specific someone said or didn't say? Because overall, I find the DS pleasant.

i understand my layout might have looked chaotic but this is site where 15 year old kids come to find layouts, not adults and our generation has varying styles from the adults and we dont like harmony, the thing is out of all my submissions, that had the most faves in the shortest amount of time, I think createblogs way of rejecting layouts should be different. What so I propose? well I say that only the mod who accepted the layout can reject it later and like you said everyones opinions different then I dont understand why i have to follow the opinions of the minority just because you guys are "staff" here.
