So the Lego Ideas website has a weekly challenge and the current one is to build a band or singer or group or something like that. I submitted the attached image and had it rejected with the following:
---
Please make sure all your photos are:
Crisp and clear
Not too dark or too bright
Not too grainy
Not too blurry
Clear of background clutter (we encourage plain, neutral backgrounds)
Free of borders around the images
Remember you want to make a great first impression with your images toward potential supporters, so make sure it's easy to see your LEGO creation.
Please submit better digital images. We don't accept digitally edited photos or images with jagged, pixilated, or blurry edge lines cropping or compositing. Any text overlays need to be clear and easy to read.
---
(This was the second one I submitted and both were rejected - the first was basically the same but less zoomed in and the background was a little more out-of-focus and the black pieces a little less easy to see but I couldn't really see what was wrong with either version.)
I cannot FOR THE LIFE OF ME see how the picture I submitted breaks any of these rules. I am inevitably limited by the quality of camera and lighting that I own but even so I think the image is fine. What on earth is wrong with it????? This is the third time I've had something rejected for more or less bullshit reasons but at least with the other two I could sort of see what they are getting at. But this one? THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH IT.
FUCK THEM
