We submitted our site http://www.faux-painting-techniques.com/ quite some time ago.
After completing the submission form we were presented with an error message stating that dmoz could not determine our IP and that there was no need to resubmit, as soon as they determine that it is not spam the submission will be sent to the appropriate editor.

We also attempted to contact the category editor (http://dmoz.org/Arts/Crafts/Decorative_Painting/) a couple times asking the same thing, and did not get a response.

We are concerned that the submission was lost due to the above error we encountered.

Can someone tell us if the submission was lost, and if we should resubmit?

Thanks

Mike

As the error messsage said, your submission was received and will be dealt with as soon as someone looks at the spam bucket.

Well instead of waiting who knows how long perhaps we can resubmit with out our firewall plugged in?

Thanks,

Mike

No, there is no need to resubmit. Editor dfy has explained the situation.

The site has been overlooked by editors for several reasons. (The following are not grounds for not listing, but they sure can slow down the reviewing process.)

"Due to limitations with certain browsers, this site is best viewed with Internet Explorer 3.0 and above." Why say that? It's a turn off to anyone, including editors, who don't use that product.

The site has also been lingering in a "misplaced" category. There is no information on the site clearly indicating its location or origin. That immediately precludes it from having a second listing in a Regional category.

All that aside, the good news is the site is being reviewed in Arts/Crafts/Decorative Painting and will show up in that category shortly.

Ok, we have made changes based on your previous post.

Hope this will help get us in there!

Thanks,

Mike
