ok something totally random to rant about but it still pissed me off a bit. my salute was rejected because it wasn't written on a damn piece of paper. sorry but that's just a little stupid. it was on a CD and you could see the little rainbow glairy pieces and if you ask me it's better than one written on a stupid piece of paper with a corner torn off. that shit is so easily photoshopped.

i think the salute guidelines should be reformed.

i know. not fair. and the hand salutes / CD salutes are so much better than ones written on little white pieces of paper.

I'm not even going to bother to salute, again.

People know who I am.

I probably won't even be on here long enough to make a salute worth while.

eh.

I don't really see why this is worth ranting about. Tongue

To salute, you must take a picture with all of the following requirements

* Must say <yourusername>@showmypro.com
* Must be written on a piece of paper
* Either the top right or top left corner must be torn off (not cut.. torn!)
* Your face must be visible in the picture
* Your handwriting must be legible
* The picture must be as clear as possible

Seems pretty clear!

Paper salutes are boring.
It's cool when people come up with crazy ideas.
Bottles, CD's, walls, etc.

well y'know I didn't really bother reading the dumb shit because I've done all kinds of salutes before.

This site is seriously starting to piss me off.

this honestly, shouldn't be a big deal. just follow the directions, and you should be good.

Not really.
I'm on vampirefreaks.com and quite a few people have faked hand salutes.
CD salutes I'm down with, but hand salutes aren't always reliable.

just go through the process, and add an new salute. the new will replace the old.

You forget there is no link for it after you have a salute, not to many people know it's just salute.php
