I have designed and redesigned several times and yet agian my design was declined.

I am happy to note that some actual reasons were given this time around, although I find it hard to believe some designs are thrown out due to 'poor design' or actual 'copyright infringement'.

I guess we all have our own opinions.
I do have a little issue on some of the points about my design though. And so I have decided to rant. (Obviously time will tell if my 'rant' is a good idea or not..)

- Improperly sized thumbnails and designs (Mmm, kay... I spent hours getting it to EXACT pixel demension specs. What part is the wrong size? The actual design size on t-shirt, I could see...)
- The design has too many colors (Possibly. I tried to keep it down. I better recheck it.)
- The design has a gradient or halftones. (Really? Where?)
- Submission did not use the templates. (Oh, yes did! See that little t-shirt in the corner? That's from y'all's template! Is there something more to the whole template thing I'm not getting?)
- Inappropriate material within the design. (What, pray tell, is innapropriate about a fish and some non-offensive text?)
- The design is too large to print (Ok, I can see that.)
- The design contains copyrighted material (Does it? Where??? That's my own design! What about my design was copyrighted? )

Seriously, for some of these I would love answers to. I really would love to have one of my submissions in and somehow I am doing something wrong. Please, educate me.

-What is copyrighted in my original design?
-How else should a template be used?
-Why is my design too large to print and yet I see other designs using the whole t-shirt space?
-And what in my design is 'innapropriate material'? o.O

I could probably fix the color and size issues pretty easily, but I am concerned about those 'copyright' and 'innapropriate materal' issues. I can't exactly fix something I don't know what is wrong with.

Guess first step is to check and see if I actually sent in the right files.... :P
