i was looking through all the latests graphics and i noticed one that clearly had a curse word in it. this is the second one i've seen since one of my graphics was rejected for having a word that merely suggested cussing (technically, it wasn't even a word). is this acceptable now, did someone let it slide, or what? some clearity would be nice.

Could you please provide a link? That might help in understanding which one and why. Also, maybe you could provide what yours looks like.

I believe I've taken care of the graphics you were talking about. If I've missed one, please post the link in this thread.

i don't think she was offended, i think she wants to know why her graphics got rejected for it, and these others didnt

Topic Starter: can you please post your graphic(s) that was/were rejected due to content?
because i don't think that DICK or SHIT are very offensive. I mean, those kinda things are said on TV...... so please post them up. ![]() |

^agreed u should post them up, or at least tell what word caused them to get rejected
but in defense of the topic starter the world f**k isn't said on tv but it's written on a layout that was accepted. http://www.createblog.com/layouts/code.php?id=19866 but she said her stuff was denied for implying a word, while i don't really consider dick or shit very offensive either, but i think a word that's just implying one is at least on the same level as those. |

That's the downside of having different minds review the queue. Also, keep in mind that context might be considered. For example:
What a dick! - some guy looking at someone in disgust or something versus What a dick! - some girl kneeling in front of a crotch. Those were horrible examples, but hopefully I made that particular point clear. Typically, swear words in general aren't enthusiastically welcomed. |

^that's what i thought. i don't find the curse words offensive but i don't approve of them either. they're vulgar and unnecesarry. mine had the word effin' in it, that's not even a real word. oh, and just because they're said on tv doesn't mean it's ok to use them.
