Chill man, I understand you're frustrated but I am not Valve nor do I have any communication with Valve, so aiming your ire at me accomplishes nothing. I never said I felt like I discovered the "magical dance" to please valve, I literally did nothing special and they picked me. In the end, you are creating things for the…
I was quite surprised and kind of stunned about all/some designs i saw as entry's for this particular contest. (I use my time quite often to vote for designs as much as i can in the workshop) I consider it unfair that people "hatevote" other designs since we are all working "for free" to get them good quality content (at…
Oh that totally changes my opinion, clearly because Valve has included your skin it totally invalidates the criticism that they repeatedly include the same artists time and time again and for the most part ignore the rest of the community, now I totally see the error of my ways. Nobody is arguing that these people don't…
I understand what you mean, I have my workbench pictures and everything, but a presentation shot is a seperate bullet point under the "Presenting Your Submission". Are the workbench pictures considered your presentation shots or not? I'm asking because it's usually a habit in the workshop to render out your presentation…
Saying that Valve shouldn't have to treat it's customers/employees/contractors fairly because "they're not a charity" is a terrible argument to hinge your support of the Workshop on. Also, by your own logic, the Workshop creators are also not a charity and have every right to call out unfair practices when they see them…
Okay, thanks. Removed the logo. And btw - all 3 pictures come from workshop with no single filter on. Only having black outline because there were some small pixels of green from green screen removal. I believe and hope this shouldnt be a problem, it doesnt change the way skin looks ingame
where is the finals submission thread? also do i have the list down right 1. WIP POST THREAD 2. SUBMIT TO WORKSHOP 3. POST TO FINALS SUBMISSION THREAD am i missing something, can i include all my works in one WIP thread if multiple entries
The contest began on May 2nd, and the following was in the rules: "You must submit new work for the contest, and not re-use assets you may have previously created." It seems that any skin submitted to the workshop prior to the contest is exempt. Sorry man, hopefully you can find some inspiration for another submission!
The downvoting thing started happening since Valve changed the workshop. I can 100% tell you that those who spam links on your skins are the ones who downvote. So those are pretty much "bots" disliking top skins of the day, everyday. So you shouldn't really care or worry about.
I downvote most skins because the workshop is just oversaturated with good skins so I'm pushing up my criteries for what skins to vote up and what to put in my list of favourites. As for the increase of votes I'm guessing that it's just time for people to start looking at stuff we've made now after deadline is passed.
