Hints for uploading wallpapers

Did you read the guidelines here: https://www.wincustomize.com/Guidelines.aspx

Wallpaper acceptance is a loose science at best . .. but it is handled fairly.

You can always upload the wall to your personal site.

Vikram, if you want a place to upload walls.. Go to Deviant Art and start an account..WC is more of a skinning site, the walls are chosen very "selectively" here...

There are still rules and guidelines to follow at DA, ya might want to browse them before you go on an upload binge..LoL..

There are quite a few other sites you can join as well that will accept your works...
Wallpapers at WC are just more hassle than it's really worth..

Thanks, Vikram, for the forum post. Very timely for me as I just uploaded my first screenshot yesterday. (LOL)
Thanks, Zubaz and Dbl Zero, for the experience and comments.

Main hint for uploading wallpapers: Submit it and move on to creating another one, improving your skills and enjoying what you are doing. If it's rejected, so what? If it's accepted, that's cool. Either way, you are already done with it and are creating something new. As long as you create it and like it enough to share, that's all that matters.

Thanks a lot guys. As always very helpful.

LoL..I have issues with that theory!... Bows and Arrows do not operate themselves, so wheres the real parent and which are the real children?

Bows and Arrows do not Kill, People kill...

Well, I'll have whatever "Gibran" was having..LoL

Since we are all friends here, LoL, heres a quote on that subject..

[...ponders immensity of it all...]

Just clicked "Submit" on another forum post, and got the best error message of all time!
"Object reference not set to an instance of an object"
[re-enters 'ponder' state...]

I've made several wallpapers and they all get rejected. I made one today and it was rejected. I'm getting to the point where I just want to give up.

That's ok too.

We all make choices and oftentimes those choices are well based on the opinions of others. You have to decide for yourself why you are createing walls and if it matters that some folks (who do a pretty good job and have been doing it a while) don't want them here. And just because they're not wanted here doesn't mean that they won't be wanted somewhere else or that they are bad.Create/don't create. Submit/don't submit. It's all good.

I wouldn't worry about it if I were you. It's all about hermeneutics so what you think about something may mean diddly to someone else and vice versa.

Just have a laugh, do something totally outrageous and when it gets accepted gives us a shout will you?

When my wallpaper gets accepted, I will be shouting, "yippeeee" and thanks you made me feel alot better

Remember, this is a skinning site and not a wallpaper site.  So the walls have to be good and compliment the skins to make it.

Portraits, don't give up---keep plugging along. As you seen in the previous posts, WC is "selective" in their acceptence of walls due to the high number of them they receive.

If you really want them up on WC, you can either take a screen shot of it, and post it that way, or submit it to your site alone

Hope that helps---But, don't give up...if your having fun and enjoying it, why give something up you enjoy just because one or two of your work was not accepted?
