You guys have years here but this is not about years.This has changed in the last months.I’m not an old graphicriver author and I still belive the change is huge!! Some months ago my new uploaded items were having 2-3 days exposure on the first page and now some of my items had even just 2-3 hours of first page time.This is just not good and envato should really do something about it.

Otherwise, graphicriver is going doooooooooo[...]oooooooooooooown… :(

I was told my item was too similar to existing items where there was no item even close to what I had designed, it was a wedding invitation.

To see an item like the one mentioned kills me. What are the reviewers doing? I mean we are professionals and too see work like that being approved that even for $3 is absolutely terrible.

encouraging and motivating? to see how it does not sell any of their items because of the poor quality of their portfolio? :zipped:

its not about selling rather than about teaching the skill to a new authors growing a new cult, new blood, new ideas then the money will flow and skilled authors shouldn’t be bothered with new authors cause you are the riches.

However, graphicriver is all about skill and quality. We have no problem with new authors coming in as long as their work is of a certain standard. There are many poor quality files sneaking through and that’s the problem.

Doing what?

When I first time came here I got some rejected files and I was like: “why?” Now, if I look at my rejected files I completly understand why they rejected those files.I learned a lot from those rejected files because when I saw they keep rejecting my files I tried to understand why and I searched for good files examples.

I personally don’t find this good for new authors as they will keep the same quality because their files are approved like that and of course they will probably get 0 sales and in the end leave graphicriver.
