OC is deleted for "low quality" and "not a wallpaper"? No...

    Hello. Obviously I am biased about my own work, but I feel like I have been treated unfairly here. My upload was removed for the reasons listed in the title.

    Here is the wallpaper in question

    Now, you may not like it, it may be too bright or whatever, but frankly I am offended and confused as to why this would be labeled "low quality" and "not a wallpaper."

    My other submissions are still up and have a few favorites, so I am a bit confused. I guess it's not up to the moderator's standards of quality? I will try harder next time, I guess...

    Maybe because of white frame

    Actually, I like this wallpaper

    Added 11 hours after

    Also, try to reupload, and write to lumberjack, if this will happen again

    I'm also facing the same problem. Putting aside personal aesthetic preferences and prejudices, it seems extremely unreasonable to tag all the images I've recently uploaded as "low-quality". From my perspective, there are numerous wallpapers on the website that have similar styles and compositions to mine, yet they can coexist without being questioned. To be honest, this phenomenon baffles me a great deal. It appears inconsistent that some newly uploaded wallpapers are regarded as inferior while a large number of similar ones already on the platform are considered acceptable.

    It looks like you digitally scanned a piece of paper in a photocopy machine.

    Low-res scans, photo-copies and photographs of other images/text are called out by name in Rule 3:

    Low quality can mean:

    Upscaled images: Taking a smaller image and increasing the dimensions of it. This will alway result in a loss of quality when viewing at full resolution.

    High levels of artifacting: Noise induced by an ISO value set too high, high levels of JPEG/compression artifacts, color banding.

    Bad editing: Renders with jagged non-stylized edges, 'bad photoshops.'

    Some camera raw shots: A rare exception to the 'original size' rule; Some shots which would be acceptable at a standard wallpaper size can look poor when not scaled down. If uploading photos, consider how they look at full resolution.

    Low quality scans, photos of text, etc. The minimum resolution is 1280x800 for landscape images and 800x1280 for portraits.

    This does NOT include: Noise added/used for artistic value. "Stylized LQ" such as vaporwave, or glitch art.

    If I had to guess, that's probably why.
