Am I being picked on ?
Mar 9^th, 2010, 8:46am

Why is it that when I add more than one card with the same front but a different text inside I get them rejected or declined with the comment that the front needs to be different.
BUT when I browse the store I see numerous cards by the same artist all exactly the same but with a different text inside being approved.

I am naming no names and there is more than one artist but would love an answer as this definately feels like discrimination to me.

I believe you can have the same card appear 3 times providing they are in different categories or they can be in the same category if they have different colours.

It's no biggie just wondered if different reviewers have different rules Then when I see 150 cards all the same with just a name or number different it's like a kick in the teeth ROFL Beautiful cards by the way

We are allowed to use the same exact image with the same exact words on the front up to three times only. However, a few weeks ago I did have a reviewer return my cards even though I followed these guidelines (I think they might have been new). I just politely explained myself and the cards where approved.
I do see how getting cards returned can be annoying, especially when we wait for up to ten days now to get them approved, but we do have to remember everyone is human.
