For a site that puts so much emphasis on including permission on works of others that you have used as a basis for your own creations, there are still skins getting on that should never have made it past the moderators if they had checked. I'd like to say "more thoroughly" but obviously "not at all" is what happens far too often.
There is a logon that's been up for 2 weeks now, using a wall from one of the better known wallpaper artists here, that simply says "Thanx for the permission, man" with no permission included. He says he forgot, would put it in, and never did. The person who made the wall says he doesn't even know the guy. Yet, on my last logon using this persons work, (which I have exclusive permission to use), I get a comment from administration making sure to put in the description that permission is included, which of course it is. Yet this other total rip remains on the site with no permission at all.
And the wallpaper library, supposedly the one most heavily moderated, allows a wall using an icon from another artist on this site without the artists permission, the person then adds a thanks and a link to the author's site, but no permission included in the file.
I can see this happening perhaps on things that aren't very obvious, getting missed, but there seem to be a lot of examples of this happening with work that should be known to the moderators and checked for permission. They should be some of the most knowledgeable people here with knowledge about what is getting submitted.

A Thanks to the Staff

I just want to say that the site is faster today than I've seen it in well...months, maybe even since it moved. And I just want to thank all the staff that I know have been working hard to get things in order. Whatever you guys have done lately is working great today. Hope I'm not the only one...it's great!!!

Help?

Apr 8, 2005 2:56 PM by Discussion: OS Customization
I'm looking for any tutorials on Logon Studio, such as how to have the user pics show all the time, not just on mouseover, and how to move the "Turn off Computer" button. A lot of the logons have the user panes and the Shut down in the center, but I'm not really figuring out how it's done..I've looked at the files, but I'm missing something probably pretty obvious. Any help or links would be appreciated

Do they exist at WC?

I submitted a screenshot last night called "Just Win Baby".I got an email saying it was uploaded and it is in my Gallery, but not in the Screenshot section, and it has no rating, not a 4,2,1...nothing. Now I know that there is a Great Raider Conspirisy (don't think I speeled that right) but this is just not right. Did a San Diego Charger fan do this? Was it someone from Los Angeles mad about the Raiders moving back to Oakland? Does everybody have it in for Al Davis and the Raiders? I admit it's not the best screenshot in the world, but this kind of Raider bashing has to stop.I'll be awaiting a response to this matter or I just may have to take WC to court for mental anguish and punitive damages.

I probably shouldn't even go here, but this "just trying to give something to the community" thing sounds very hollow and a means to self-promotion and high downloads with not much regard for true quality or talent, and to what end? Just wondering if I'm seeing thing all wrong..
