Wow!  And here I thought this was going to be a great group. Nope. :no:  I've waited all this time, only to have every one of my submissions declined....even one that was given a Daily Deviation.  :shrug:   I don't get it.  I'm very disappointed. You just lost a member.

I would like to say that this is because of lack of participating admins.
The photo with the DD was expired or not voted on, not declined, was it not? I remember voting to accept that photo.

Thank you for your kindness. I truly appreciate it.  But no, all three of my photos showed the word "Declined" not expired. I was told photos can take up to one month before they expire, and MY photos were in review status for about 8-9 days, until they were declined. =(   I guess I was a little dismayed, since those same photos have been accepted in some prestigious dA groups, so it's not like they were bad photos. :shrug:  I understand one of my photos being a DD has nothing to do with your groups decision of judging a photo (it's the same way in the groups where I'm a Moderator and/or Contributor at)...but I guess it was just the shock that all THREE photos were declined for no apparent reason.

Anyway, so yes, they were declined and not expired.  And again, thank you for all the times you've been very cordial and professional with me...you're an asset to your group. :nod:

Oh, hm, I'm sorry. I don't exactly know why that one was declined, as in my opinion, it had all the things we look for in the photos we accept.

We did seem to recruit one admin so far. I suppose, since it was still in the voting process, he/she voted to decline.

I know it's not your fault and thank you again for being so kind and for your speedy replies...I truly appreciate it.  I guess if that photo would now be requested by you or any other admin member with the power to do that, then I might be inclined to rejoin your group...but sadly it just put a bad stain on my trust in a group that takes so long to review photos and then declines the very first three photos I submit. :no:  Just knocked the air out of my sails in having any confidence or fun with a group like that. :shrug:   So again, thank you for all your help.  I hope by now you recognize my appreciation for you Kaycee. Have a wonderful weekend!  =)
