If I had changed the textures or something to that effect you may have had a point. Again, it's a minor palette change.
The thing is, people are going to think the wad uses that palette rather than the original Doom palette. They are going to think that whatever is in your screenshots is in the wad. That is the point of screenshots, to show what's in the wad.
And then someone doesn't check out a wad he otherwise would have because he thought some things were in it that he didn't like. Only they weren't really in it. Just in the screen shots. That's the resulting consequence. That's why people aren't liking that very much.
If you still don't understand it, just know that it's not wanted by most people here and thus a bad idea to do in a review.

@hex11 That's a non-issue, isn't it? I doubt the majority of anyone here is on dial-up internet, and even still, higher resolution lets you see the map design better.
The size for most Doom levels, especially vanilla levels, is very very small. You don't need a fast internet connection to download and play most Doom levels. You really shouldn't need it to view review screenshots either. For a newer game with much larger file sizes that would be fine. But in doom 1mb+ screenshots are a bit much.
And I can tell you I know very well there are people here using dial-up. Hell I still was until very recently. Huge screenshots used to drive me crazy and reviews that used them weren't very helpful to me because I'd have to forgo the screenshots.
