Mixed approvals! (Read 1718 times)

Mary_140624 Senior Member artist Posts: 454	Mixed approvals! Sep 9^th, 2014, 1:48am I am nearly going mad, and wonder if any one else is having the same infuriating experience, of cards being excepted, then a week later further identical cards are declined....so it is not as if they are old cards...all created at the same time##### Cheers Mary

Reply #3 - Sep 11^th, 2014, 10:38pm This is no guarantee, but the next time you're submitting a card based on a previously approved card, reference the earlier card's PID# in your Notes to Reviewer.

That is correct. If the prior card(s) were approved before the Submissions Guidelines then yes, they are subject to an updated review.

If you have a specific collection of recent cards you'd like us to look into please share a sampling of PID#s here.

Hi Mindy, sadly I have deleted a lot of these cards, but here are some ...

1306798 which was declined,
where as these ones were approved just a week or two before...
1306796
1306794
1306792
They were all submitted on 07/26/14

These cards were declined
1301964
1301970
These cards were approved
1301978
1301972
They were all submitted on 07/14/14

I would also like to know why this image, and identical others( except for the wording) is considered "unprofessional" ??
