Re: what do americans hang christmas tree baubles

Quote from Gillean_137778 on Oct 18^th, 2010, 10:59pm:

I am yet again amazed at the category problems on this site and want to know why? why do GCU insist on deciding categories over the artist?

After annoucing I'm starting a range of Scottish themed Christmas/Yule cards - I look like an idiot when they refuse to let me put it in a Scottish section - apparently although me, my name and my tartan are scottish, that's not enough so maybe I should write on top of it - SCOTTISH - so that they know? I tried putting gaellic (SCOTTISH) writing in it but that got moved to foreign language.

Now I get tree removed from my "Christmas Tree Baubles" card - they were meant to be baubles hanging off a Christmas tree - hence the title - or maybe it's because I put Yuletide Blessings it can't refer to Christmas? Although it's fairly common in the UK for the two terms to be interchangabe. So what do americans hang their christmas tree baubles on?

no I've given up trying. I don't understand why the categories are so rigourously vetted but nothing else appears to be. No-one has explained. I'm grumpy cos I have a bad cold and decided it wasn't worth getting stressed about. I don't care what categories they put my cards in I just hope that my customers search by keyword.

But thank you for enquiring Wink

Oh and I couldn't figure out how to delete the post - hence the xs

even if the link was to my account it should have take people to a log in page not my account - unless your sessions are set up incorrectly.

Product Id: 695122 - McLean Tartan Poinsettia - this is a specific tartan, my family's tartan and I thought it might be nice to do a range of Scottish Tartans but I can't put the card in the scottish section because apparently it doesn't have the word Scottish on it? I did get a response from my first query but not my second.

Product Id: 700448 I think as I posted that the Christmas Tree Category was rejected because I can't submit a card to two different holidays?
