i am having a bit of a hard time as to why you suddenly require extended network banners. i have a layout series [NEBULA], and i usually get lots of requests to make new ones with different color schemes. i currently have 3 of them. and my 4th one was rejected because of this new guideline. i know that my layouts are high quality and adding a extended network banner isnt going to make them any better, it will actually make them look worse. cant the rule just be "extended network banners are encouraged but if your layout looks fine without it, we will accept it" WHY NOW, why is this rule necessary, extended netowrk abnners arent supposed to have a background image. ughh so stupid and ridiculous.

I think that if a layout style is popular and the user decides to add yet another layout into the mix it should get accepted. Why else will Ju-Sun lower the standards in the first place when CB was changed?.... to get visitors regardless of how high quality CB use to be. And popular layouts will diffidently give CB more users.

Also these new standards are a tad too strict, not all layouts need a contact table, extended network banner, and a background to look good, unless the layout has poor quality images then i can see how all three are needed.

NEBULA layouts for example, high quality layouts popular and lacking extended network banners still a great layout.

MySpace defaults or myspace standard layouts?
defaults are like no CSS except a background.

I submitted THIS standard layout and it was rejected. I asked why, and the reviewer said:

Dude its a default layout within a box, you didn't even make any graphics for it.


ok. For one, that isn't a default layout. A default layout doesn't have any definded tables. For two, what kind of graphics would actually look good with this? IMO, a network banner would ruin it.

All my friends hate extended network banners because they look cheesy. To me, it makes the layout look like it's from some Pimp-My-Space.
