Verified authors ✅ (OLD)

by GIK-Team
Our team decided to close the Verified Authors group due to the increase of controversial and negative situations and non-compliance with the rules by members of this group. From now on, we will stop accepting applications for membership. Though this is not the end, but the beginning of something new. Verified Authors group was created to protect and encourage original authors, but unfortunately, this idea stopped working. The rules and concepts of the group will be revised. Perhaps, some users will be excluded. We are now disabling the Verified Authors labels on all works, while the rules and benefits of the group continue to apply to all its members until we publish new information here.
old rules
Verified authors - a group of authors, who upload their works in our catalog and have several advantages:
  1. The works of such authors are marked with a special sticker (blue checkmark).
  2. Advertising is not displayed for this group of authors.
  3. An author may specify a link to PayPal or other ways to collect donations when uploading the work on the website.
  4. Copying or modifying works of verified authors on our resource is possible only by agreement with the author.
  5. In the case of unauthorized copying, the verified author has the right to file a complaint and the administration of the website will immediately remove modification or copy of his/her work.*
*Complaints are considered only within the catalog of this website. Watch faces published on other resources are not taken into account and cannot be regarded as the original (primary source). All complaints can be considered within the branch where the work is published. If someone adapts your work for other watches, then there is a standard rule for such an issue, which is: the author who adapted someone's work must indicate the original author (source) in the description.

This group was created to distinguish and protect those authors, who spend a lot of time and energy on the design and creation of their own watchfaces. This means that watchfaces should not repeat either the style, fonts, background, etc. of other works on the website. The administration of the website also do not accept authors who have many similar works (copies of one and the same watchface with slight differences).

How to become a part of the Verified authors group?
  1. You need to have a minimum of 5 completely different works uploaded on our website (Published separately).**
  2. Your works have to be designed by you and popular on the site.***
  3. All posted works should have a completed description and correct tags.
  4. The author should respond to comments under his/her work.
**Watchfaces that are ported from other watches or copies of watchfaces from famous brands of watches or smartwatches will be not considered.

***Popularity is determined by visitors of the website, i.e. such indicators as views, downloads, favorites are taken into account when considering.

Applications are processed within 7-14 days and the author receives a response in any case (either positive or negative).

The administration of the website makes a decision on verification based on the rules mentioned above. The opinion of the administration may be subjective and may not coincide with the opinion of the author. The decision taken by the administration is the only right and cannot be challenged.

Being in a group implies periodically adding new watch faces to the website catalog or a substantial updates of existing ones (under updates means taking into account the wishes of users, for example, adding a version in a different language, color, or a certain combination of widgets). If there is no activity for more than three weeks, the user can be excluded from the group without further notice.

Leave an application for entry below

Notice: After joining the group, you must update your watchfaces to receive a sticker (just enter the editing mode and re-save your watchface)

Thank you for writing. We have reviewed your application. You have good jobs. But we have to refuse you. As long as you have few watch faces to join the group. We do not take into account variations and watch faces with logos of famous watch brands.
