As I promised yesterday, that today I will continue my discussion of 10 My Mistakes in Utopian Graphics Contribution. In the discussion yesterday has reached my 5 contribution and this time I just proceed to the 6.
Contribution 6: Back In Reject
My sixth true contribution has been the goodwill of the moderator to approve my contribution, but I can not take advantage of the situation at that time, too hastily. Moderator commented "Please add version of the logo in one color and export in PNG and high resolution." Attach a logo in one color, which I understand attach a high resolution png logo. Understand my English is zero, my capital just dare to try and try with google Translate. Then I replied moderator's comments, that I've fixed it.
But what happened unexpectedly, the moderator denied my contribution by adding 4 new errors.
No need to show logo in 700px, use enough empty epace in your presentation. No need to show the size of the logo up to 700px just use the free space. Meaning I do not take advantage of empty space which is an error in Design technique. I do not really know about Design techniques, I just skimmed through the Typography article.
No export in PNG in your source files. There is no export png on the file I attached, it means I forgot to attach the png file format in transparent form. This I do not know yet whether the file should exist in the form of transparent png in the rules or not. Because the Utopian rules are always updated. If you miss the update rules from Utopian also affect us. So I suggest to you who contributed to Utopian for always following the development of Utopian rules.
No version of one color in your source files. There is no logo version in the form of one color as I described above.
Quite generic. The logo I created is too general, although it can be checked on google nothing like the one I made. But this is a general form, meaning anyone can say or give a generic rating or not a logo. Finally my contribution to the 6th also in decline, maybe not time in receive.
Bonus Contribution: Accepted Unconditionally
Actually this contribution is purely I join the Task Request Logo contest. In my own post I write not expecting upprove from moderators. I also do not expect to win in the contest. But Alhamdulillah is not expected, because too simple even lucky. The moderator immediately said "Thank you for the contribution." It has been approved. " This is the second time I receive a bonus from the same moderator. Again this is not my entrance into the form of a real contribution. Just imagine I saw the post Task Request tomorrow last today I made it in a hurry. Be creative for a while and it's not up to 2 hours to make a contribution time. I'm already convinced in rejection. But this is luck.
Contribution 7: Project Dead
From the beginning I have said that I do not understand Open Source how to work? My benchmark is Github, as long as there's Github it's Open Source. The reference for finding Open Source projects for me is only on Google Play. For those of you who are experts of course can see an open source website and others. But I do not understand that, then I am not as fortunate as you.
This time the project I'm working on is a dead project. Of course not accepted. This I know from Utopian mod comment, "This is a dead project." Find projects with last commit not 1 year. This is a dead project, please search for a living project. Well, if this is how I should stop contributing in Utopian. From first to 7 new 1 is accepted and that too the opening of the road. It means not my fashion in utopian. But I tried to go back to the 8, by looking for logos that are very ugly. Let not the original logo is better than you design and others.
Contribution 8: The New Wind
The logo that I design this time is ugly the original, but still I still have errors. In this 8th contribution there are still two mistakes I have. This is a moderator comment that gives me time to fix the error.
Please provide ready to use .png files that contain only logomark / logotype with transparent background. I forgot to attach a logo in a transparent png format. This is actually not a mistake but forgot.
Please do not share font softwares, you are not the author of those font software. just put source link where you download the fonts that contain information about font licenses, author, etc. I am attaching a font in my attachment instead of through the font information link, this is pure I do not know. So I attached it to Drive, now I know. Certainly will not repeat a similar error.
This moderator comments when approving my contribution "Thank you for the contribution." It has been approved.
- Your have fixed the issues, your contribution is now approved.
- next time, for sam mistakes immediate rejection will be applied, so, pleas check everything before you submit.
Here he also gives 2 notes to me, first I have fixed the mistake and already approved. Secondly, next time before submit your return space contribution, because if wrong again directly rejected. thanks.
Contribution 9: A Very Long Review
On this contribution I was new in the review on day 3, and only the 4th day accepted. Not bad long wait. But here I am still experiencing a mistake as well, even though it has contributed to 9. It should be enough to experience technical errors. But right now I'm still experiencing errors. So great is the Utopian moderator. In this contribution I attach all the files in one drive without deleting the files that I have installed in the post.
Finally the moderator tries to find which files can be edited and which are not. Here is a comment Utopian Moderator: "Logo must be delivered in a vector file (e.g. .eps / .svg / .pdf). Please add these to your source files.
Utopian moderator "He told me to attach the file in eps, svg, pdf format and other editable files Finally I re apload the files and I attach them again Thank God for the 3rd time I received on the contribution of Utopian graphics- io.
Contribution 10: Stay On Mistake
My contribution is wrong and the biggest mistake in contribution this time I forget to comvert the font into the form of shapes and or give a line. There are clearly written rules. The next error logo I made was bad at the time of small size. Here's a comment Moderator:
HARD rules broken:
- "Any text or fonts must be converted into shapes or" outlined ".
Suggestions:
- Its too complicated. Dont use details this small.
Those are my 10 mistakes in Graphics contributions in Utopian-io. Hopefully this writing and experience can benefit you who just contribute to Utopian. Hopefully you do not make mistakes like my mistake. So I share my experience. Because there is a possibility info I can only contribute in Utopian up to the 11th the latest has not been reviewed.
The info I got from my Discord allegedly took or stole other people's concepts, and the possibility of my account being blocked in Utopian. I do not know which logo I copied the concept of others. If there is something similar to his concept and report to the utopian. But I do not feel there is a concept that I stole, possibly in my contribution there is a little bit similar, so that could be other people claim it. I apologize to those who feel I trace the logo of his contribution. Although I was rejected continuously but I never had any intention of trying to steal another party's logo and modify it. None at all. Who feel the logo there is similar to my make apologies I do not see your logo and let alone to steal your logo.
Well, I do not stand anymore. Jump to the next point. Here are tips to be able to contribute to Utopian-io.
