Posting an article doesn't come with a guarantee that you'll be flooded with lots of upvotes.
It's Sunday morning. Patience. If you're article is good the votes will come in.
Ask yourself this though: Are you posting articles just to get votes, or are you posting because you enjoy helping others learn from your experience?
cheers

Hi. I'm actually posting articles to help others from my experience. I'm really sorry for my question posted at the forum. I've raised this question solely for inquery purpose: what is actually the difference between articles. 
Thanks a lot for your reply.

Posting questions like this is almost guaranteed to attract the sort of person who will down vote anything you post. Just post your articles and move on, votes do not pay the bills.

Please don't pay attention to my lastest post. The question about votes is actually out.

Well The article in question simply has a link to the Windows Store to get the binaries. In the article guidelines it does not allow association between thirdpary products and the article authors.

No, some articles can have code inline, or can talk about topics without needing actual code.
This specific article was an entry for a contest long gone. The article, too, is now long gone.

I finished(?) this[^] article and a need help with two things:
1. English - I would love a proofread...
2. Set the proper categories - I had a hard time to categorize this article and I'm not sure I made a good job there
Thank you...

All of your images seem to be missing.

Strange - I've tried in Firefox, IE and Chrome, and none of them show up.
Trying to access the images directly gives me the "There is no page"[^] page.

Interesting article! Happy to help
As you asked, I have done a proofread:
Quote: I have no the slightest ability to work with colors.
Should be "I don't have the slightest ability to work with colors".
Quote: and that methods are used even by designers…
"methods" is plural, so "that" should be plural too -> "those"
Quote: that can sense (see) different wavelength
"wavelength" should be plural: "wavelengths"
Quote: for the RGB color model, which create colors
"create" should be "creates" here.
Quote: just like human eye
You're missing the article here: "just like the human eye".
Quote: However RGB model does not work in a way human understand color.
The article is missing: "However the RGB model ..."
Quote: For instance the color named Magenta built of R:255, G , B:255.
Your :0 appears as an emoticon. You can try putting a space between the colon and the zero, or replace the colon by its HTML Entity, :.
Quote: The model still use 3 components in an additive way, but rearrange the
"use" should be "uses", and "rearrange" should be "rearranges".
Quote: It also resembles the classical color-wheel used by artist
"artist" should be plural here, "artists".
Quote: The basic element is Hue, which running around
Should be "runs" instead of "running".
Quote: a color so saturated that it bacem dim
I'm not sure what "bacem" means here.
Quote: Value define the brightness
Should be "defines" instead of "define".
Quote: This A element can be applied to both color model we discussed here
"model" should be plural, "models".
Quote: All these formulas based on the idea
This should be "All these formulas are based ..."
Quote: you chose a single color and get back a set of colors that play nicely together (the color chosen is one of the set)
I don't think you should use the past tense of 'to choose' here, you can use the present: "you choose a single color".
Quote: where the second color placed on the opposite side of the color wheel.
Should be "where the second color is placed".
Quote: In any case it is important to choose a color that dominant over its counterpart.
Should be "a color that is dominant".
Quote: This method gives high contrast between the colors in the set and add more nuances over Complements method
"add" should be plural here: "and adds more nuances", and there should be an article before 'Complements': "over the Complements method".
Quote: Cons: Lover contrast than in Complements or SplitComplements.
Did you mean "Lower contrast"?
Quote: Cons: There is no much contrast in the set.
Should be "not" instead of "no".
Quote: Cons: Lack any contrast of colors.
Should be "Lacks".
Quote: For this people color information alone is not enough
Should be "these people" because 'people' is plural.
Quote: (we talk about colors - a blind people has no colors!)
"people" should be singular here -> "a blind person".
Quote: I promissed no code, but after all it a coding site...
"promissed" is misspelled, it should be "promised".
Quote: In this part I will show the core of a possible implementatio of the ideas we saw.
"implementatio" is misspelled, it should be "implementation".
Quote: In .NET we have the Color class that represent a color based on RGB model
Should be "represents".
Quote: The most important thig
Typo, it should be "thing".
Quote: are moving the origina lcolor around the current color
Typo, it should be "original color", not "origina lcolor".
Quote: As triads used to create 3 colors equaly distributed around the colo wheel
Should be "As triads are used to create 3 colors equally distributed around the color wheel".
Quote: in the attached code you will find the exact code for creating all the colot sets in this article
Typo, should be "color sets" instead of "colot sets".
Quote: it is not enough that your code works and written well
Should be "and is written well".
Quote: it acn be too expensive to hire a professional designer
Typo, "acn" should be "can".
Quote: You are convinced about the iportance of colors, but still dont want to mess with the code!
Typo, "iportance" should be "importance", and "dont" should be "don't".
Quote: You can download and install the Visual Studio extensions based on this article
There is one extension, so "extensions" should be singular instead -> "extension".

ProgramFOX wrote: I'm not sure what "bacem" means here.
I mean that the color turns to white, and meant to write 'becomes', but at the end I wrote: 'so saturated that it turns dim - white'...

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

There is a way to display long code blocks in an article shrinked, initially?

We don't allow manual adjustment of how code is displayed (apart from line numbers) in order to have a consistent experience.

I think you didn't got me...
Above each code block there is a menu with 'expand', 'shrink', 'hide' and more...
As I have a long code block I would like to display that code block like after clicking 'shrink' from the beginning...

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?

I got you. What I meant is: "No, we don't offer that". The reason being is that if we were to offer that option we wouldn't make it an option: we would do it for all code blocks over a certain length.
At this point I'd rather have the code blocks exposed fully. If you feel your codeblock is too long, then maybe not all of the code block needs to be posted. Or maybe it does. Up to you.
cheers

When updating an article, is it eventually upvoted?
