I try to remain impartial. We dont compare authors. I only compare old logo (if is) with proposed design. Therefore good logo might be rejected because its worse than the original and a little bit worse logo will be approved because its much better than the original a given project uses.

We do not compare one work with another. Just old logo of the project to new one.

And ofc there are multiple mods with different views and level of quality they require. You can check our results every week and see how rejects how many contributions.
