GCU Forum - I'm new here

jane_140554 GCU Newbies artist Posts: 36	I'm new here Mar 27^th, 2010, 5:55am I was wondering if it always takes this long to get your cards approved. I submitted cards days ago, maybe a week ago. Would it be a good idea to submit daily because of the wait?

Hi Jane and Welcome to GCU. I am fairly new too.. Just a few months active.. However. My advise... Don't think about the time so much as just making more cards and they will get posted in the managements order.

They have a lot of cards daily to do and go as fast as they can go.. Some times it is done sooner than other times. From what I understand the process is based on a site criteria and unable to give exact days for approval. 4-10 perhaps? I usta think about it much more but now I just keep making cards and adding to my store.

There is a GCU 101 and a GCU wiki link here plus the forum has some great links for learning this site and card stuff too. Ck it out!

Looking forwards to checking out your store. Have a good weekend too~

Lj

p.s. I also find that I bring on some of my own wait time by not meeting the sites exact criteria as posted in the areas I mentioned here. So... what else am I learning here?>>> Proof check everything twice or more and make sure your spelling-category-inside text and such is spot on... That will help very much in stopping unnecessary delays for you..

Jane, it can take 7+ days for cards to be approved, and you can expect longer wait times the closer it comes to a card giving holiday like, for example, Easter, Mother's Day, etc.

You may find some intersting information at any of the Squidoo lenses (websites) below.
