Can we please get back on topic?
Those who are able to accept and reject graphics and layouts, speak up! I've mentioned my opinion, but I'll go ahead and say it again. I think it is important to have things spelled right (unless it's slang and intentionally spelled wrong and I really think it should be obvious if that's the case). It shows that the designer cares about their work and it shows that cB cares about the integrity of graphics and layouts before accepting them. Titles can (and in all seriousness, really should be) changed if there are blatent typos at the time of acceptance. I mean, why not? You're right there, you're clicking accept... just change the title as you are doing so. I know that designing layouts isn't my forte, but common sense is telling me that it's just not too much to ask.

see, i would vote for kristina as most mature after this incedent, although people may think i was being serious...
but anyway. sticky caps etc. ON a graphic is one thing. that is artisitic taste or what have you. In a title, it is a different matter. it reflects badly on cb to have atitles with spelling errors, and likewise layouts where th emistake is obviously just that (two letters the wrong way round, or something) |

I'm fine with changing the titles if their mis-spelled, because a lot of times people don't know how to spell the word correctly so I just go back and change it if its going to be accepted. As for text on the actual graphic, if its some type of slang its fine, or for the simple you're/your thing, I think its fine. Although if you go as far as spelling the month wrong or something, which I'm sure was a simple mistake. Then I think its fine to just contact the designer and see if they can change it to the correct way of spelling.
As for sticky caps, it says in the rules that its under bad so anything with those should be rejected and explained why it was. Or actually its goes under Tacky text. In the rules QUOTE bad
watermarks copyrights Poor quality image Jocked images Inappropriate/offensive theme Tacky text or image effects |

First one has a grammer error too. Kind of funny how its always that same designer that has misspelled stuff.
The third one down is fine, there isn't any mispelled words on it. The text actually on the icon is a brush anyway so it wasen't their fault. Plain icons with text, I don't ever really accept. I didn't think they were acceptable since anyone and everyone can make them? |

About the 3rd one, you don't add a plural "s", when it's singular.
Sorry for putting the wrong one. i think it falls under, "grammar error" |

Yea, thats what I was thinking you were pointing out. Thats why I said its a brush, she coudn't really change it. Although I think it would have looked better to just put normal text and write bad boy, but just my personal opinion. Can't hold it against the person.

Yeah. I don’t see why it's hard to type, "Bad Boy". And, use a heart brush. The size is adjustable.

Yep, atleast someone agrees?
I don't know about ECD & C0 though, I'm going to messege them/him about it. Tell him if he could perhaps start using correct grammer and spelling things correctly. |

Where are on earth are y'all seeing the a " 's " on the third thing?
And icons are accepted. I mean, if it looks like effort was put into them. Its not a matter of whether its hard or not to make, its just if effort was put into them. |

There isn't a 's on that icon. The icon is just of..lower quality that makes it seem like it is. And because i'm a nudge, i'll show proof:
 (When blown up 600%) And quality. By far. Quality > Quantity. Where'd you get the quantity part? |

 I'm lost. Why would there be an apostrophe? In this case it wouldn't be used to denote a missing letter or letters OR to denote possession. It's a picture of a guy with the caption "Bad boys."

Some/Most downloadable fonts doesn't support apostrophe.
