Or it's because I haven't gone into the system to fix the date.  You can always edit the dream, check the "reset date" box and submit it back into moderation that way I don't have to dig around to find it.

Thanks Zoomba, I'll do that.

is that all you care about? your download numbers. geesh.  

Yea, your right, I guess I shouldn't upload any content at all and just keep them to myself.

It's not about the download numbers, thats just an indication of distribution. Is there something wrong with wanting people to try my work?

maybe you should keep them to yourself, and quit your complaining about stardock.

for all its worth, I prefer you do not keep them to yourself

Please...let's not get snarky.  Some people like to care about numbers...some like to care about comments....the site is different strokes to different folks....

TheMasterBaron ...generally uploads do not display publicly in order of upload, but in order of approval.

This can sometimes cause weird placements....but if that happens it is usually sorted with a quick note to a mod....[we have PM function here now]...or, as Zoomba suggested...update it with a 'reset date' and it'll be relocated on re-approval...

i apologize for my rudeness. it will not happen again jafo. and my apologies to the master baron.your work here is definitely appreciated. my apologies.

No hard feelings pjdark, it's easy to start ranting and raving on message boards (I started this one), and without a verbal tone, it's easy to come across with a negative tone. I just needed to make a complaint, and I believe if I where talking to them face to face (or on the phone), it would have come across much better. The typed message is a terrible way to communicate.

Anyway, all is solved.

I have read nothing but great things about your work!  you seem very,very talented. if and when i get vista,i will be sure to enjoy your work!  again themasterbaron, i offer my sincere apologies. have a great night!  

 

I can't comment about your date issue.  But I will say that we do reserve the right to reject Dreams for any reason we see.

Your Dream does look an awful lot like our Desktop Earth.  So I guess we should be asking you about that -- did you make it as your answer to Desktop Earth?

What pays for the development of DeskScapes, Dream Maker, the bandwidth for your Dreams are the sales of things like Desktop Earth.  Without some % of people paying for some of our hard work, there's no DeskScapes and no gallery and users are left Googling MPEGS and WMVs.

That does't mean we don't appreciate what you're doing. You are making some great stuff and it's very thoughtful for you to share it with us all.  I just hope you didn't create that particular one in response to Desktop Earth. If you say you didn't, that's good enough for me. Either way, I'm sure the date issue will get settled.

 

You business model makes complete sense to me. But, I’m not out to bankrupt Stardock and shutdown this site. I just happened to finish my dream at the same time you finished yours. And believe me; I didn’t get the idea from Desktop Earth. I’m a sci-fi fan, so it’s very natural for me to want to make a space related theme. It’s even easier with free source material from NASA to work with. And since I haven’t seen Desktop Earth in action, I can’t compare them. What I can say is that my 1st Apollo dream was a direct result of finding this tutorial: http://hubblesource.stsci.edu/services/articles/2001-01-01/, and my latest was the result of this find: http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx/.3bc24a1b that allowed my to rotate the camera around in 3D.

Also, I did resubmit my Apollo v.2 dream and checked the update checkbox, but it was my original Apollo dream, that I didn’t update, that got its date changed instead of my newer one, so my new one is still at the bottom.

Ah...you almost lost me there....you saying you uploaded a new second ver?  The idea was/is to go to your original 'problem' skin and click on 'update' to revise it...and reset THAT date radio button so the original wrong date is set to the new...

Or....I still get it wrong....

Jafo goes look....

OK...whatever....V2 already is current....'Apollo' had a date 2 days old....now reset to today's date.

So...give or take cache resets....it'll all be honky-dory round about now - ish ....
