May I have a sufficient reason as to why this wallpaper was deleted?
This is the message I received after it was deleted:
Starting from the top of the list of your reasons to why it was deleted:
1. I used a gradient background that complemented the Transformer's colors. In
its simplicity, it looks neatly arranged. For the layout, instead of cramming
them in the center of the wallpaper, I decided to situate them slightly hanging
off the right and left edges.
2. It is not blurry.
3. The pictures I used were from the original Generation 1 box art of these
Transformers. These Transformers are very rare and I scanned the original box,
causing slight degrading of color on the box itself. If anyone has ever seen a
Transformers box, they will notice that it is cluttered with several images and
phrases. I had to manually take out the backgrounds of these images for this
wallpaper, this took several hours to complete.
4. To make the text I had open another CS2 workspace and type it out over the
colored background that I chose. In doing so, I had to erase the background
around the text so that it look appealing instead of a rectangle with text in
it. This also took a hour or two to properly format the text for the
image.
5. This is not an alternate version of a previous wallpaper.
6. Do you not consider Transformers anime?
Please shed some light on what I did wrong or give some advice on how I can make
it better.
Thanks,

That's the problem. The background is nothing more than a
gradient. Whether you've carefully chosen the colours or not is neither here nor
there. The point is that it's about as effective as sticking an extracted scan
on a plain black background.
Click on the link for the Sandbox Forum and ask people there for advice on how
to make a background. But in the meantime this is far too simplistic.
