In the upload policy it says: "NO IMAGES WITH COPYRIGHT/OWNERSHIP WATERMARKS." But what if I am the copyright holder (the photographer), put a stamp on it and give permisson to GWM to publish the pics? I've done this with some pics, and had let them "check by site staff". Some made it, some not. Seems a bit like coincidence. At the moment the rejected are in the "popular vote" queue.
Would be fine if Admin would clearify the above rule a little more.
If you own the copyrights to the photos and wish to post them that is perfectly acceptable. There are several reasons why some of your photos may have been rejected, either due to content (or lack thereof) or due to the moderator being unaware of your particular situation.
Generally speaking the upload usually isn't the copyright holder which is the purpose behind that. If you happen to find them getting deleted just post on the profile of the mod deleting it, so they know to look for it. Due to users uploaded the same images over and over some of use are guilty of getting trained to look for any watermark and deleting it.

Thanks a lot.
