I was just on my gallery account when I got this n-mail:
Quote:
Dear Buzzin,

Your entry for Gallery of the Week has been held over by the judges. While this does not mean that you have won, it does mean that you have made a good first impression and they have saved your entry for closer consideration. That is a good sign.

We just want to make sure you are aware of this in case you had it in mind to change your entry. It would probably be best not to at this point.

So congratulations! If the status of your entry changes after further perusal, you will be notified.

Sincerely,
Happy Neopets Gallery Judging Team of DOOM!

Maybe try to make the page look a bit nicer.


Funny, last time I entered for Gallery I was rejected a day after submitting it and now I get this. Maybe because it's a Buzz gallery(only one actually) and it falls on wednesday this year. Glad I didn't take the gallery down.

Anyways, if you read that n-mail, they tell me to not mess with the gallery's look, but the also tell me to make it look better. So do I mess with it or leave it alone?

This is the gallery, it's simple, but the theme was for a halloween Buzz and not Buzz in general.

I'd probably go with the added note there, ie changing it. I think though that they don't want a massive change or anything so maybe just changing the colours to something lighter would do? I don't think there would be enough time to add a sidebar or anything like that...

Good luck on getting in! :)

I though the colors went well(mostly dark colors with white text), so I wasn't sure what to fix. I doupt I can get a sidebar done before tomarrow, or really, later tonight. Banner, not sure what to make.

I guess I didn't think much of a sidebar since I have the halloween one and that's all I ever see. The yellow one kinda work for the gallery as well. Now Mara, snow, and v-day ones don't.

Guesss I'll think of something to change.

Still great to get confirmation finally. 3rd time might actually be a charm. :D Thanks Trick.

I think that when you change your gallery, you should test it out in your shop or on a spare account first. Or after work hours, so TNT won't view it while you're still in the process of changing it. As for what to change... Maybe it's just my monitor, but that shade of blue (the table background) seems particularly harsh.

Personally, I would make the colours more.. appealing? Lighter? They seem a bit harsh, but I can't put my finger on what it is exactly.

Good luck though, hopefully you're chosen ^^;;

Well, I would make the blue and the gray both one shade lighter, but it's your call. It looks pretty nice as it is.

Good luck! :)

Hmmm I'm guessing it has to do with computer light settings cause I know mine used to be really dark till I lightened it a bit. Maybe I'm not getting what harsh really means, was trying for a dark feel,but I guess it didn't work as well.

Darn, I'll have to check an HTML code to get a shade lighter for both cause I noticed I'm not using the preset form as I thought.
Some people onthe neoboards were saying that gallery is eating HTML, so I've been owrries about updating it. Might keep it as it is till after tomarrow now since I have no time to fix it till get get home really late. -.-

Oh well, I was never expecting this to have a chance and if I do win...yay, but it wasn't the best it could be. Heh, I'm still content. :) Least I got in for Buzz day art gallery.

Heh yep. I wonder if my spare or my main gets the trophy. Doesn't matter to me. =)

I'm quite happy it won, 3 years I've been doing this and gonna keep updating it. :D I'm gussing TNT n-mail you before you win gallery spotlight.

Bah...the tablet looked better on the normal gallery then in spotlight. ;_;

EDIT: Crap! TNT did break the HTML code. I just wen to update my gallery and the HTML is all gone! :cry: I have the HTML saved, but it won't get fixed. ;_;

I really glad I didn't mess with my gallery before now.
