"Professionals have standards."

Well, you should probably take a break (or "take a chill pill").

Hi Josh!
It's tough when you fail. Believe me, I know!
The thing about this website is that while it is free and fan-based, it is also going on The LEGO Group's official mantra of "Only the Best is Good Enough".
Now, I haven't seen your prints, but I know that my first prints look pretty much terrible to me now. For now, I'd advise just making custom stuff that YOU are interested in! (If you want some tips on that see this forum: [url]https://www.mecabricks.com/en/forum/topic/2925[/url])
For example, I have made custom prints, primarily for Ninjago, in an attempt to learn how to better use the service.

Keep brickin'!

Alright, now please keep this render-general.

whats wrong with this?

The quality and lighting...

also the lack of a roof is unsettling

hey why was my render taken down? I followed literally every single guideline and I read this thing several times.

my render was taken down BUT I followed literally every single guideline and read the rules several times. Why?
Sorry for saying this 4 times, my computer lagged and I thought it didn't send.

@l_e_g_o Please stop spamming the forum. You can edit your post if you wish to add more information.

Hi l_e_g_o,

It would probably be more helpful for someone to answer why the render was taken down if you could post the image here in your question. Otherwise, nobody but the one person that took it down can give you any feedback. And that is if they remember yours specifically... the admins have to filter through many renders in a single sitting.

sorry for spamming, but as i said, my computer lagged and i thought it didn't send. Plus, I don't know how to put a render in comments

I can help with that. Here is a link to the thread that shows you how to format your posts:
Features to Format Your Posts

The part you need is here:
![image_url](image_url)
The tricky part is the image_url bit. Your rendered image must be hosted somewhere on the internet, and the image_url has to link to the actual picture, not a webpage that has the picture. Typically people here use sites like flickr, imgur, or imgbb. You would need to upload your image and then share it. Each site is set up differently, but it should provide an option to share for BBCode. That is the link you will want to copy and paste into your post. You cannot just copy the URL from the address bar. It will break your img code.

For instance, this is how I put in a picture from my flickr account:

![https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51005709568_b9175e6d3c_o.png](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51005709568_b9175e6d3c_o.png)

Notice that it is linking to a *.png image. This is important. It can be a *.bmp, *.jpg, etc, but it must link directly to the image. If you use their sharing option, it should be formatted correctly for you as long as you choose BBCode.

Hello,

How can I make the following renders better with the standard Mecabricks rendering machine so that it can comply with the guidelines better in any way? Thanks!

Have a higher resolution would be a good start.

Okay. Is 1100 by 660 a nice format? (also one of those highest resolutions I can get without paying credits)

The file resolution from free renders is too small for images posted in the render section. These are supposed to be for testing the service not to produce final images.

That certainly does not mean that free renders aren't of a high quality enough to be posted in the render section.

After all, I know someone who has posted free renders and have them stay up.

what can i do to make this stay up?
