The one thing I am seeing and not sure if others are seeing this as well...but despite the notation on our submission form to have submitters complete their descriptions with a "period" is beyond my understanding why they don't...all I know is, that as of January 1st, any submissions without periods will be rejected. I just don't understand it...

Anyways, as for poor designs of sites, one thing I am about to do with my design business is to start creating new Gallery site templates with flare and pro styling...I've already had several webmasters request sites so obviously taking the hassles of comingup with design ideas is getting boring for most now... I have a feeling I will be busy. But I do see sites that are poorly designed....

I was just thinking about that the other day...when I first started -& spent 1/2 hr on each LLs rules lol- I noticed there were some that specifically stated NO punctuation, and others that didn't say anything. I copy & paste the descr from my metas when I'm subbing so there's no periods there. There's one other LL that I can think of that requires a period, so I just remember to put it in for that one, otherwise - no periods. I think it's just another reminder to read the rules carefully at each LL, which obviously they're not doing in this case. (which tells you something anyway, doesn't it)

on another note - I'm getting a lot of subs where the images are broken on the site - not the linked pics, but the banners/thumbs themselves! Doesn't anyone look at their stuff before they submit it??

oh wait...I know the answer to that

If I did that I'd have absolutely nothing listed! When I first started approving I used to edit each description to add a period, now if it's close enough I don't care and let it go as is. If a surfer is so anal that he won't come back to my site because of a lack of a period in the description...he's a whacko!

The trend I've noticed lately is people signing up for partner accounts and then never submitting with them. After a few months I will probably purge those accounts.

Partner only does help reduce the problems, but IMO it also reduces the number of submitters over all, because some builders don't want to be bothered with one more password to remember or logging in.

Hey Preacher,

You know what's kind of funny? I was just reading that thinking, omg, who would sign up for a partner account and then never use it?!

So I went to sign up for one and it told me that my username was already taken... I'm thinking, what are the odds?

I tried to log in and low and behold I signed up for a partner account that I have never used at the end of November!

So I apologize for that, I guess when I was putting together my recip tables your recip dropped from my universe. Anyway, you'll be seeing some submits from me in the next couple of days!

I just want to say..my lack of a period was an honest typo and I will resubmit with the corrected version. Sorry about that!
