Ok, dear whoever will read this and is somewhat administrator,
I've had it now. Botchii has deleted 12 of my artwork for absolutely no reason
from my point of view.
MT's expactations are way to high now. And I'm very pissed right now because all
of those drawings that were deleted were not low quality. I've spent at least 5
hours on them!
We are fanartist, not pros who are actualy making a salary out of our work for
most of us here.
Nuf said, I'll be back to see what kind of reason you have this time for doing
this.
They're all the same alright... I'll copy paste here
Val4s,
The artwork/doujinshi you have submitted entitled Tsukoyomi was removed from
Minitokyo because it was deemed not to be a clearly planned art piece. Please
only submit work that you have finished to a certain degree and show effort and
planning. In-progress works are not allowed.
The artwork/doujinshi you have submitted may have also appeared to have been
traced and not hand-drawn. Please only submit items that you have drawn by
yourself and not by copying another's work.
Also bear in mind that uploading pictures taken with a camera results in poor
uploads- please scan your doujinshi.
Sincerely,
Minitokyo Staff

This is
the main part of the botchii message. When a mod deletes a gallery item, if
he/she feels like it then provides additional infos. If you had it in all the 12
deletion PMs then I guess that's the reason for your mass-deletion. Please
remember that all botchii messages contain generic informations about the
suitable reason of the deletion. You always have to check the PMs out in order
to find if there's something else.
Hope this helps until a mod answers you ^_^
Like everyone said so far it appears it was the size requirement, you probably
submitted them before the size requirement was in place. As to why it was done
in a mass deletion, I think it's just that probably the mod saw one piece and
that prompts them to check the rest of your gallery, so they just take care of
it all at once.
Perhaps if you still have the art pieces and you scanned them in, you could scan
them in at a higher resolution and resubmit them?
The thing is, they're made on the computer directly... so I can't resize them
without decreasing the quality...
anyways... I think that this size requirement is a bit too high.

hey this forum is new....
Botchii isn't anything but a message delivery bot...so I'm not sure how exactly
it can be annoying.
Far as adding a really large border...wouldn't it get deleted like many do for
that reason...you have to make proper use of the canvas, which Val4s doesn't
seem to have a problem doing anymore because your newer doujinshi's seem to fit
the size requirements.

I know what you mean, i think i got at least 9 deleted 2 weeks ago, so i gave
up, DeviantART for me all the way now ;
Please, please don't think that we do not want you to share your artwork here!
With the new guidelines there are going to be growing pains, but if we don't
take care of things now we'll just get lots of complaints later "Why was my
new submission deleted for being too small, but so-and-so's whole gallery is
still here and his artworks are smaller than mine!" I'm sure the majority
of MT's art sector had at least some loss from their galleries. So please don't
feel discouraged! We appreciate all of the time and effort that you put into
your artwork.
We can't implement one rule for new lot of submissions and another for the old
ones. We have to be consistent in that we have to stick to the policy
throughout. So that is what the deletion spree in the doujinshi sector was about
since it had never been properly modded before.
In your case your artwork was too small. Please stop complaining. You're not the
only one who is facing this.
We do encourage members to re-submit their
artworks if they were deleted due to resolution issues under the condition that
they are of higher quality and not enlarged from smaller
versions.

could you please write down here what botchii said? are all 12 botchii messages the same? if so, i guess really there's something wrong...sabotage

All like this.
It just means that your work was a bit too small. You can check if it's 600, 000 pixels by multiplying the height and lenght.

unfinished is another issue. btw, i would say the main matter would be pixels

You could probably start off with a bigger initial canvas size. That would solve the issue.
...or add a really big border.
