Ok, just talk about this post #3421655. Within three days, the "dislike" of 10 approvers could delete a 49-person favorite post. This work can be liked by most people, is it really of poor quality?

Score/Favorites is a measurement of how popular a post is but it's not an indicator whether the posts actually belongs here. Nearly all nude filters have a high score/favcount but they are against the rules.

That mindset is actually outdated, meaning you should look for posts that are actually "good" by Danbooru standards.

There are a lot of little issues that add up. I would not say it is poor quality, but I understand why it wouldn't necessarily pass muster for some.
Small issues I saw at a first glance - weird arm with the stethoscope, oddly connected legs, twisted torso (to a questionable degree) and unnaturally weighted breasts. They're all relatively minor iterations, but collectively were enough for it to be passed over.

Well, since it's impossible to recover, and I don't want to continue entangled with this. Your time and mine are precious. Thank you for your reply.

post #3421849

New uploader, for an artist with a longstanding post approval and translation history. Tagged and translated to the best of my ability, and I am utterly confused as to why it failed approval after 12 reviews.

I followed the Uploading Guidelines to the best of my ability. Anatomy and art-quality unambiguously meet the aforementioned guidelines to my subjective sense. The only thing I would suspect is perhaps an over-application of meta tags.

It looks like a fairly standard borderline post to me. There's nothing egregiously wrong with it (and it's the sort of thing that could get approved on a good day and possibly could still be approved yet) but there's a lot there that is somewhat lacking. The colouring is basic - this is probably the weakest area. Alice's arms and hands are mediocre, and the shading is somewhat inconsistent. The head shape seems a little off as well, and that's not a very good depiction of a pregnancy stomach bulge, although this last one could be explainable by its nature.

One thing that definitely didn't have anything to do with it is the number of meta tags.

Arms are disproportionate and the breasts are awkwardly massive. Smudged coloring and open-ish lines on the body don't help.

That neck is WAY too small for the body and head. Not really sold on the shiny skin or the face either.

Individually the body parts are fine, but the way they are connected is very odd and unnatural.

The 3rd one seemed fine to me though.

Alright, thank you

I've rendered the images cleanly, why weren't they approved? (It's only transparent in original size)

Third-party edits aren’t particularly welcome on Danbooru. We prefer the original works that are left the way the original artist intended them. Some even consider removing parts of an original image that you don’t want disrespectful towards the artist. Users who wants to play around with a version without background can do the editing themselves, but they shouldn’t be uploaded to an image gallery.

[Pet peeve: I have no idea why extractions started to be called “renders”. That’s not what rendering means in the context of digital images.]

Also please link to posts by writing something like post #3418660 instead of simply pasting links.

If I wanted to know the blessed reasons why the last two uploads I made were eliminated.
I want to know why everyone here feels like a complex of gods when they are probably not able to do most things that many strive to do. I'm dying for the explanation.
