First of all, I apologize to anyone who I've already annoyed or inconvenienced in my ramblings through DMOZ. But here goes:
When I first submitted my site homepage, I looked around for quite a while and never found the best category. The site is my home garden page, which I'm fashioning to be a general-purpose reference on many plants. The best I could find was http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Home_and_Garden/Plants/Perennials/, because most of the plants in my database are perennials. Later (today, actually), browsing through the directory for a different purpose, I happened upon http://dmoz.org/Home/Gardens/Designed_Gardens/Private/ . I never considered my garden to be a "designed garden", that's why I didn't find the category - but now that I've found it, I think that's where my site should go. So I went ahead and submitted it there. Should I "unsubmit" from perennials? (Is there a way to do so?)
Also, I submitted my seed trading page (different URL) to http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Home_and_Garden/Plants/Seeds/ (I found one of my trading partners' pages there). Is it okay to submit different parts of your website to different categories of the directory?
Pardon my ignorance - I appreciate your feedback.
