I approved several bootskins this morning, bootskins people created... Remember that word, it's kinda important.
The other fourteen waiting to be moderated are going to stay there for someone else. I could not, in all conscience, approve skins which took zero to 'create' (read 'image taken off the net somewhere' for create...). I also have no wish to spend what time I have here chasing images all over the net to check their copyright. I have been here on and off for five hours today already, and its only 1:45 pm.
(moderator hat off) My personal view is the bootkin section has been ruined by endless amounts of ripped images. It's just spam. Thank goodness for the small number of good skins in there created by talented skinners.
Guess I'm just a traditionalist. I believe when you submit something, it should be entirely your own creation. The bootskin and logon sections appear to feature very little original work. Shame. (moderator hat on)
As for Screenshots. It's great to see other people's desktops in action. It gives people an idea of what can be acheived. They should never appear in the 'This Just In' list however, that should be reserved for skins.
