Default Quality|1|Texture Quality
1: The markings uploaded do not appear to have any fur texture around the edges. To make markings look realistic and natural, make sure to create a subtle fur texture.
1: The textures of the markings appear unusually pixellated or blurry. Make sure that you are saving the textures in the correct size and format, for maximum clarity.

2: There is some fur texture on the markings, but it appears to be a bit blocky or a tad bit unrealistic.

3: These markings have adequate textures! Yay!

5: Your markings are crisp with nice fur textures and no blurriness to be found! Excellent work!
5: Your fantasy or non-realistic marking has no need for fur textures and otherwise looks great!

Default Quality|2|Opacity
1: The markings uploaded appear to be completely translucent. Because the game has a built-in opacity slider, the markings do not need to be translucent.

2: The marking uploaded has some opaque parts, but is largely translucent. Because the game has a built-in opacity slider, the markings should be at least mostly opaque.

5: Your markings are mostly opaque so they work fully with the opacity slider! Well done!

Default Quality|3|Truly Custom
1: This upload features a coat made in Create-a-Pet using preexisting markings and regions. Uploads in this section need to be truly custom markings and regions, made using modding tools and image editing.

5: Your upload features custom-made markings and/or regions. Yay!

Default Quality|4|Usefulness
1:This marking is a symbol which seems to have a very limited number of potential uses. Markings should be versatile, and useful for different kinds of pets.

3:The marking is very specific to a particular style or fandom, and is likely to have a somewhat limited number of potential uses.

5:The marking is very versatile and could be used for many different pets. Wonderful!

Default ** Screenshots|1|In-game
1: All markings/regions should have at least one screenshot in-game, on a lot; not in Create-a-Pet.

5: All the markings/regions have in-game shots. Excellent!

Default ** Screenshots|2|Neutral Background
1: All markings/regions need to be shown at least once on a plain pet with no markings/regions other than the one being uploaded. Make sure the marking/region you want to feature contrasts well with the pet's colour.

2: You have included a screenshot of the marking/region on a plain pet, but the colour combination of the pet and the marking makes it difficult to see. Please take a new screenshot with colours that contrast more strongly.

5: You've included the necessary screenshot on a plain background, thanks!

Default ** Screenshots|3|Recolourable Channels
1: All markings/regions which have two or more channels need to be shown in colours which make each channel easily distinguishable from the others.

5: Thanks for including screenshots which clearly show all channels of your markings!

5: Your markings only use one channel, and therefore you've no need to show separate channels!
