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 rejected it, or well Thomas did. But I had a position switch and I was helping him out. I thought it needed to be, and I gave a very very detailed explanation as to why it was rejected. The image quality is very poor, and you used a bunch of brushes. Some that are just plain shapes and then some are really distorted. I apologized in the letter, and I will apologize again that your layout was rejected after it was accepted. To be honest, it has happened a lot to people recently, we have new design staff, and they aren't quite up to the standards quite yet. We are having a training soon, and I do apologize for the inconvenience that it may have caused you.


PS - I agree with Tung (I believe was the one that said this). The TV at the bottom should be removed. It doesn't even really fit from the looks of it. It just looks like you thought it was neat and slapped it up there.

PSS - Also I don't think that we are rude, I just don't think everyone is open to constructive criticism. We aren't here to tear you down and tell you to fix all these things and what you should do to improve, we're helping you.

no, I understand that, i have had plenty of layouts rejected after exceoption and I dont care about that, it just the lack of organization from the design staff, if one person on the design staff accpets a layout it should just stay that way because clearly one person thought it was okay, and by the end of the week the layout will probably be in page 30 or something anyway, also my layout had over 60 some faves in the first 2 days alone, clearly that shows people dont care about the image quality or brushes [plus, it my style]. Heres what I suppose because I know a lot of people have the same complaints as I do but i will be the first one with the balls to do this.

Heres my proposal on the new policy for design staff:
1] If a layout was accepted then dont reject it again, why? because the submission standards should have been high before the layout was accepted, afterall its called submission standards not accept then reject standards.

2.] I usually never resubmit a rejected layout, I only resubmit only for legitimate reason and why did i resubmit? because the only thing the Design staff told me to fix was the blocking of the ad, which i later fixed. Just because some of the design staff's criteria wasnt meant dosent mean that it should be rejected, afterall isnt that why there are multiple people working on design staff, so that everyones working together? I dont really see the team work in one person accepting then another rejecting.

3.] I personally thought the image quality was good and so did 60+ other people, also I am aware that the design staff is new at this but I seriously dont think a layout should be accepted for a week anhd all of a sudden be rejected, its just not logical.

4.]if you think that the first standard is too hard then here is another proposal, only the person who accepted the layout may reject it later, thats the only logical case, just becuase some persons opinion is different dosent mean you should be biased, also wouldnt that be disrespecting the moderator who accepted it anyway?

5.] also did you get any complaints from my layout? because personally i didnt so I dont understand why it was rejected. Many people loved it and even if they didnt then people would have just skipped my layout and would have moved on,

6.] bottom line, the design staff is way to unorganized and even if your training a designer there should not be any offenses to a member designer, but clearly Iam offended by your actions on design staff, because I think your operating system is unorgranized and bias on a certain level. i'm not going to resubmit becuaser your rejection was an illegitimate reason in my case, but instead I hope design staff has some changes after this thread, because it would be completely ridiculous for there to be no changes.
