i got fined for uploading
1 Page: [ 1 ]
So i joined this site and wanted to upload a wallpaper i made some time ago. nothing happened for a while, then i got this neat little message saying:
"You have been fined 100 points:
We have reason to believe this wallpaper was not created by you, we only allow wallpapers that have been created by yourself."
exactly on WHAT do you base this assumption? ok, i uploaded it in the best quality, but after uploading the site said it had been resized to the correct filesize and that from now on i should pay attention to it. you know, i could make screenshots of the open psd or even send the psd file itself. i just find it really disgusting as to how a new member gets treated when trying to contribute.

Hm...i guess you should pm a staff member, with the psd screenies.
If you did nothing wrong, its all okay!

In the AP Guide, we have explicitly state that we want to see a wallpaper signature on wallpapers uploaded.
The message you got indicates that either your wallpaper has no wallpaper signature or that the wallpaper signature does not match your username (with no information provided that a different alias is used).
Rippers (i.e. people who upload other people's wallpapers) usually upload wallpapers without signatures or upload wallpapers with signatures that indicates the wallpaper came from another source (e.g. Animewallpapers.com).

When a wall lacks a sig (or the sig and username don't match) and the description is either non-existant or inadequate, I reject with that message.
Unfortunately, mods are not psychic and therefore when something turns up with no sig and no description we have absolutely no way of knowing it's yours. As Dias says, if we were to assume everything that's uploaded is by the person uploading it, we would be drowned out in complaints that the walls are all ripped.
Requirements for both sig and description are clearly explained in great detail in the guide, which I recommend you read, cos that's what it's there for - telling you what the site rules are :).

Signatures are bits of text that you add to your wall, normally once it is finished, in order to identify it as your work.
Many people like to include the name of the series, the copyright for the character and/or the series, their name and a link to their wallpaper website.
A sig can look like whatever you want, but we would recommend your sig should be small and unobtrusive (ideally it should fit underneath the task bar) using text to indicate your username. However, what is most important to us is that there is a clear link between you, your username and your user page and your wallpaper's sig.
Your signature MUST be in english. English is the language the Staff speaks, and English is the language members must speak, therefore it only makes sense that English is the language of your signatures. Any other language will be marked as not having a signature, and deleted.
What this means is that if you have a sig that is different in some way from your username, we need to see some sort of explanation as to why this is. The best place to put this explanation is on your userpage by editing your user page (hit the profile button at the top - detailed elsewhere in the guide).
Similarly, if your sig is a link to your website, you should fill out the appropriate parts of your userpage to indicate that it is your website.
If the sig and the username do not "make sense" (i.e. does not match and nor relationship between the signature and username cannot be established) the wall will be deleted on sight (or rejected in the case of approval processing).
erm, it had a signature on it and even my logo. i generally do that to all my work. in all that its different is that i wrote "made by v1q.net" which IS my website and my username IS v1q. i think one should be able to tell that much when looking at my name and the website url.

What did the description have in it?
tbh, you should really be taking this up with the mod in question. It could be that your sig was hidden or not obvious, but not having seen it, it's difficult to know. I've also find sometimes people upload the pre-sig version by accident.

i didnt bother with a description to be honest, and it said nowhere that it is mandatory. also i already answered that pm from bantam but still got no reply. the sig is pretty obvious, i mean anyone with eyes could find it in a matter of a second aswell. the pre sig thing is not really possible since i just exported the already done psd as a jpg, i even checked it.
i think ill pm bantam again and give him the link to this thread.

If you have failed to enter an adequate description this may be the cause of your rejection.

i gave it a title and a short description, like wallpaper made for x series. cant remember too well tho.
Well, I've seen some description worse than that, its like 1 or 2 lines in the description box, anyway, I've been fined for more weird reason, first was not having name matching my sig, which I did put HyDr@ on my custom title (well, I guess thats just not enough :) which nat just rejected and some how didnt fine me paper @_@ ) and 2nd time was some people's monitor cant view the text (its black bg and the text is lighter grey).
You didnt write a description so I presumed it was a stolen wallpaper. If you want your work accepted here you need to put a little effort into your submissions.
