GCU Forum - Wow, Approval!

Sheridan_142882 GCU Newbies artist Posts: 15	Wow, Approval! Jan 12^th, 2011, 11:53pm Was really happy to have some cards I uploaded approved in 4 days. (Not fast tracked either) It shows that GCU is committed to card approval and seem to have caught up after the holiday rush. Hope the approvers managed to have some time off over Christmas. Keep up the good work GCU!

Have the very same card in my shop only with a different number! Hard to understand this, but what is, what is. Had to go to another POD because I needed them. I understand I cannot fast-track for my own use.

Though I never experienced the 2 week bottleneck in Oct/Nov/Dec, my approvals have never been under 8 days.

Hi Nan,
I thought you could create something for your own use if you put it in your Private Gallery. You have to click the box that says: "Waive Review - I Agree to these Terms and am responsible for this card's content and quality", and it will immediately appear in your Private Gallery for you to order.

As far as I'm concerned...I'm a customer too!

Hope this helps..elizabeth

Hi, Nan,

Fast Tracking is allowed for cards you intend to purchase immediately for your own use and can be placed in either your storefront or private gallery, depending on whether it's personalized. Just place a note in the Note to Reviewers section that you intend to purchase the card as soon as it's approved.

Nan_137018 Senior Member artist Posts: 297	Re: Wow, Approval! Reply #8 - Jan 13^th, 2011, 8:07am OK I guess the rules have changed. I was told in the past I could not fast track my own cards for purchasing.

Nan_137018 Senior Member artist Posts: 297	Re: Wow, Approval! Reply #10 - Jan 15^th, 2011, 8:20am So, maybe someone from GCU could clarify if we CAN or CANNOT fast track our own cards for purchasing. Would be nice to know for the future. Don't want to be reprimanded again.
