post #2868223 - Somewhat bland fanservice and a face that got stuck somewhere between more normal proportions and a lackluster attempt at wideface. Dunno.
post #2868222 - Bland cowboy shot with uncannily wide hips and bad hands.

Should I refrain from uploading from dofskih's deviantart ? Because when I begun, the pictures were accepted almost immediatly, but since yesterday, more than half of them don't pass the pending :

You mean bodskih’s Deviantart? The artist does a good job at emulating the official One Piece anime style. I can’t speak for others, especially the approvers, but I find neither Oda Eiichirou’s style nor the toned-down anime style particularly appealing, especially when they’re anatomically challenged.

Maybe the same single approver approved most of those uploads until recently and is either preoccupied at the moment or lost interest in those posts.

What do you mean with bland?

And how about art-style like kanikama

Bland means bland. Uninteresting. The composition doesn't really draw any attention, it looks like a practice work as a stretch.

Kanikama has his own unique style, it's hard to describe. But they're generally well-done considering that. If you're trying to use his work to compare, I'd say it's only tangentially similar.

I wasn't belligerent, can I get a response in fewer than 6 days?

While the tone of the request does of course matter, a nice or at least neutral request doesn’t guarantee you a reply, neither within six days nor any other time frame.

The OP (forum #45532) said:

[...]
Rules for those requesting feedback:
#1 - You are not guaranteed feedback. It is entirely voluntary to give it.
[...]

Apparently, nobody has anything to say about your post or doesn’t want to. I won’t comment on it because it has tags that I’ve got blacklisted.

Edit: Fixed a confusing typo.

While the tone of the request does of course matter...

It does seem to. D4rkon3 rants and raves and gets 7 responses within hours with nary an upload to give feedback on. Runty casts aspersions on the mods, gets feedback on a half dozen images within hours. I'm polite, briefly lay out my understanding, and... nothing.

So, based on the feedback on what gets feedback, I'll try another tack;

WHY THE HELL WAS post #2850238 DELETED!!!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE MOOOOOODS!!!!

Sorry, I'm not well practiced at ranting and my heart isn't exactly in it. I could quote the drill sergeant from Full Metal Jacket?

It's just, this was the first time I actually went out and found an image to add to the booru. I noticed nothing had come up from the artist in several months, checked out their site and found several new images, picked one I thought was good quality (in artistic terms, not fetish terms), and uploaded and tagged it. That all took time. I'd like to know what was wrong before I spend more time trying to share good content with Danbooru. Getting silence back while ranters get coddled is pretty dispiriting.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess the reason you're not getting any feedback on this is that the picture in question is tagged with shota. This is something that many members don't have access to, and many more (like myself) have blacklisted. There may in fact be nothing wrong with your image from a qualitative standpoint but rather a lack of moderator interest.

Sometimes, no feedback is also the best way to improve.
If nobody has answered, then it might be the chance to improve on your own. This could apply to everyone of course, so sometimes it is arbitrary who gets feedback and who doesn't. That's voluntary after all.

Anyway, keep watch at faces.

I don't see anything overtly wrong with this.

Two yaoi/male focus ones:

Self-explanatory. Male-only is a very niche topic, and yaoi even more so, as the DB population is heavily composed of male heterosexuals. Most of the male/yaoi pics are going to be uploaded by people who can bypass queue, so either avoid uploading them until then or test your luck.

The first one: Brown hair guy has a wonky scrotum. The testicles should hang below the penis whereas this looks like an up side down mushroom.
The second one has a weird hand and while the torso is very detailed and well shaded the arms, lower legs and face are quite unimpressive.

okay I've been uploading a fair amount of stuff lately and a fair bit of it has been deleted. Now I've spent some time trying to figure out why they coulda been deleted but when I look at the ones that got approved I become unsure on why they might have been deleted. Some of them I have no idea why they weren't approved despite being similar in quality to posts that had been approved.

post #2872190 I can understand why it wasn't approved due to its rough nature and proportions.

post #2872989 I'm not entirely sure why it was deleted but my best Guess is because of the proportions and foreshortening of the foot/leg. Though that image I think was supposed to show Momiji dashing very quickly or something to that effect.

Now the ones I can't understand at all why they were deleted are
post #2874247
post #2874248
post #2874256
post #2874295

Maybe its something I couldn't recognize since I'm still very new to this, maybe I just didn't tag it well enough initially. If anyone can tell me what it could have been that caused them to not get approved I'd very much appreciate it because It'd help me become a better uploader. Its not as if though I haven't given it thought on my own, I've spent all of the past two days thinking about it when my suspicions about them not getting approved grew, its just that when those four are compared to similar posts I uploaded that did get approved, I couldn't find anything that'd stand out and bar them from approval. I'd like to get a second opinion on those four posts by someone a lot more experienced at this than I am before I attempt to appeal them.

Edit: I'll wait patiently for a response but if a week goes by and I don't get any answers or figure them out myself. I'll probably just appeal all the posts that were deleted between now and a week from now. Though in the meantime I'll experiment with uploads to try figuring out what all it is that the mods like.

It's a sketch that isn't in usual quality for the artist, but I don't think intentional sketches like this should always fall under a "poor quality" reason (less so when there's no other detail with the flag). This post also seemed to be valid for over 3 months, while the flagger only seemed to notice after seeing it bumped in the comments on 9/27.

This post is also more western and those posts are put to higher scrutiny.
Poor quality probably because the breasts (especially the left one from our view) has some weird indents.

Monochrome posts usually aren't too popular, unless the art is amazingly sexy or it's a funny comic. That artist in general just seems to draw pretty amateurishly and also bordering on lowres, and it looks like his art quality hasn't changed in two years. It's a good idea to give an artist some test runs before mass uploading from their works, else you'll be stuck with a low upload limit.

The post doesn't look western to me, but I'll agree that the image is of poor quality.

I see... I didn't think he drew amateurishly since the proportions and perspectives didn't seem bad for the most part and when lighting was use in colored posts like post 2874248 it seemed like it was consistent with the shadows shown. But Thank you for letting me know what the mods usually like from Monochrome posts and such, I appreciate it.

This was more regarding the copyright. Can imagine pretty good that some Approvers skipped it only because of that, disregarding the overall the quality.
