A lot of my patterns and variations are getting declined for having “very hard to distinguish “ colors- but honestly they aren’t. They’re very clear and different from each other- the latest to be declined was navy, periwinkle, bright turquoise, lime, light pink, and violet. None of those colors are even close to each other! Another pattern took multiple recolors before it finally got accepted- I lost track but it seemed like over 5 attempts? Gradients are very popular right now but extremely difficult to get approved.

Also some of my variations got declined because the pattern already exists... yes I know, I was adding a variation.

I hope this improves soon, it’s discouraging.

As unfortunate as it is, as I love this site, I have to agree. More frustrating is patterns I’ve seen people talk about (specific example in mind is the Elmo on fire meme one user made into a pattern) getting declined are being posted on friendship-bracelets and I’m seeing it being made all over Instagram.

I have to agree as well. This site is amazing and I’m thankful for the patterns but trying to upload one that you can distinguish colors from and is then getting declined due to colors

*Colors not being able to distinguish gets me a little frustrated

Me too!!! So many of my alphas keep getting rejected for the same reason when the colours are clearly so different. There needs to be a better process for checking these instead of just having one person arbitrarily decide. It makes no sense, anyone can see they're different colours
