Right. While it looks like your costume is quite acceptable, from the standpoint of the person doing memberships the picture may not be good enough. Like Kai said, it needs to be well lit, full length and as close up as possible. I would also take a picture with the robe off. I think they have a rule similar to our, but I'm not sure. It is possible to take a good picture in a cool pose, but the person doing memberships wants to see the costume. Not necessarily a cool pose.
I am doing memberships here for a while again, and I can tell you that a few years ago I would have clicked "accept" for your pictures without a problem. But then we started getting pictures where costumes were hidden under robes, questionable colors, low resolutions, poses that hid some of the costume, and half-length pictures where we couldn't see boots or belts. And even now that we ask for costume descriptions, I still don't get what colors things are. But let me tell you, it helps when they do say what colors their costume pieces are!
Even so, just yesterday someone sent in a perfectly good, full length, picture where I could see all costume pieces and colors clearly with a cool pose and ignited lightsaber. I had to put it in pending because he was wearing a robe, and ask for a picture without the robe on. lol!
Go figure....... I felt bad, but what ya gonna do?
And when I get a chance, I should take some new pictures myself. ;D My first picture to the RL, which is still up, I have my robe on and you can't see my belt at all.
The second on is better, so I'm cool.
