People rip them or remake them pixel for pixel. It's very clear that copyrighted content is not allowed. If the rules aren't enough on the website, being denied several times or refunded several times should really get the message across.

Real people check the appeals.

What about people in my situation who have never been refunded and only resubmitted two or three times, with time in between submissions and changes to the file and file name, and with no copyright issues? That's the whole reason I made this post. That's why I'm saying we need to do away with the permanent bans.

Also, I meant to convey we should have an admin in charge of graphics ban appeals. Because obviously there isn't one, and if there was, thanks for telling me when I asked you for help.

This happened to me but mine was approved before I was banned, because there was nothing wrong with the file to begin with so I submitted it in several colors

Should have temporary bans. Zone just has a 48 hour ban and it works fine. I found a lot of times people would resuvmit files because they didn't know what was wrong, so they would change something and hope that fixed it, or they didn't know if what they did fixed it, or they were impatient and submitted it multiple times right away. Anyways, a temporary ban would work most of the time.

It isn't possible to have only coco and graphic staff reviewing uploads. Reasons are simple:
1. players will have to wait even longer than they do now
2. they don't spend as much time online as GPs
3. in the end, all views will differ in one way or another on whether an upload should be approved or not

Upload bans aren't permanent.
As for some kind of indication of staff online, this has been brought up many times and why there won't be one due to spam and people using it to their advantage to break the rules when none are on

Basically the file is too large, needs to be shrunk down a bit. Might have been a bit overkill, but here:

Edit: just noticed the spelling error in the denial message...

There's no active waterfall furniture for us to use in the game. I made my own shield (drew on in-game colors to match with water and matched the graphic style in a home-made animation) and it was denied. What to do?

koff koff... This was on the previous page for you, Mr J.

I was once banned from uploading indefinitely. I know why I was. Luckily, in my case, I found a GP who believed what I said and, I assume, put in a good word for me. I was unbanned after sending in a ticket.

How did I get banned? I was a noobie player and was informed by another that if an upload was rejected I should spam it and it will eventually be approved. The reason was that the system was a robot and had moments of being dumb. I was set up, in a sense, but I don't believe the player had any malicious intent.

Long before I was staff or was friends with anyone who was, I made my own graphics and never once had an issue.

Here's one place where I agree more with you - it's not explicitly stated that you can't use items from the tileset, but in most cases it isn't allowed.

Some would say it falls under " only upload graphics that you have made yourself or that you are authorized to use" but I'm going to say it's for other reasons. A lot of people try to build disguises or fake buildings / etc with those, or they make blocks of solid black or whatever. And when they spam them, they are upload banned.

If a staff member uploads something of their own that otherwise wouldn't be allowed, they're not going to have upload rights for long.

Hello,

I am a GFX artist and about a year ago I took a whack at making shields for the first time. I uploaded my lil' experiment and got rejected for ambiguous reasons, and then again with the same ambiguous message even after making changes to the file and renaming it. Finally, I find that I had gotten banned from uploading. I sent in a support ticket to Toonslab a year ago, and thought my ban was temporary. Unfortunately that didn't seem to be the case when I attempted to upload something a couple months ago. Even though I have sent in other tickets in June and the beginning of July, I'm still banned. I asked the admins about it but they either didn't know or referred me to Toonslab (which referred me to Classic Support.)

Who else has been upload banned for eternity? Is there any way I can get back to uploading?

So this is why so many classic skrubs are comming to ol west
