KnucklesARouge, I'll tell you what I said in a different Windows customization thread.
Show some progress when you post your announcement. Don't just say "here's the builds I'm planning", because 98% of the time, we don't even get to see 'build 1'.
Those 98% of those projects just change the build tag and do nothing else.

I understand you said you accidently deleted all your previous work, but could we see something alongside an announcement?

I think the custom OS section is used wrong. I think this section should be used for true custom OSes (think LucOS), and these OS customizations should go under the 'Customisation' section.

Also, what's with this trend of annoucing Build Numbers before any work has been done? Surely build numbers increment as you go along? or am I just old-fashioned for thinking that?

Because planning and announcing is the easy part. Then comes changing the build tag to your custom tag and posting a screenshot of your 'custom OS'.

Well aren't we all pessimistic people? Give the guy a chance at least, then chastise him.
