we've all been there, and I've just been there again. As I was, I thought to myself: perhaps these poor souls might want to save themselves the trouble of taking this long and perilous adventure?

To which I retorted aloud "But of course they do!"

Which means that now this adventure can be yours, as I bring to you this fun multitude of... ...uhm ..."Wallpaper thingies"!

Where do I submit my Desktop Screenshot?

$zilla774:iconzilla774: reports, May 10, 2007
Recently there has been a huge rise in Desktop Screenshots making their way into the Wallpaper Gallery and a a result creating a lot of unnecessary submission violation reports for me to wade through (all work and no play makes Zilla all emo) :(

Screenshot Definition:

Also referred to as "screenshot" "screen dump" "screen capture" "screencaps"

Wikipedia defines a Screenshot as the following:

"A screenshot is an image taken by the computer to record the visible items on the monitor or another visual output device. Usually this is a digital image taken by the host operating system or software running on the computer device, but it can also be a capture made by a camera or a device intercepting the video output of the computer."

Generally on DeviantART this is used to show what theme or icon set the user is currently using. It is also sometimes used to show works in progress. More commonly it is used to show which Wallpaper the user current has applied. This is where the confusion arrises and submission are incorrectly placed in the Wallpaper Gallery.

There has always been a specific Screenshot catagory, but recently when the Wallpaper Gallery was moved into the Customization section along with the Screenshot gallery, people have been mistakenly submitting to the wallpaper gallery.

All desktop screenshots should be submitted to the Customization > Screenshots section NOT the wallpaper gallery.

Any screenshots submitted to the wallpaper gallery will be relocated to the users scraps for further relocation.

:heart:

It's news articles like this that make me sad, because people that are too :slow: to not read the gallery descriptions properly certainly aren't going to be the type of person to read the news articles on dA; and thusly will completely miss this bit of helpful information.

Know what I mean?

sadly yes I think there is some truth in that. however, I cannot idly sit by and let it get worse. I need to do as much education as possible because I also get the same people say "but we were never told" and in that situation they get linked right back to here :)

I was about to discuss this with a gallery director. It's annoying to see people submit deviations without reading each category's description. Hopefully you've posted it as news! :)

i have seen this so much in the digital galleries as i browse them, and i try to report them as much as possible. screenshots are dreaded in the galleries and really bog it down, so i hope that this little bit of information does some good. :heart:

I didn't realise deviantART started with a capital D. :giggle:

Perhaps if the gallery descriptions were made more obvious? But even so people should read a little more. :roll:
