Ok, you have 'passed'. 
But, it was the casual way you put it that had me wondering.
Ok, your outfit isnt the 'norm', and thats what site owners tend to shy away from. Sites are expensive to set up and maintain, so a steady flow of customers is crucial to their existence, as im sure you will appreciate.
Weird graphics = 'off the wall' = 'different' = 'we dont like change'. Blunt, but thats how a lot of site owners see most things that arent a white tin can on wheels.
I know one site owner who greets every single would-be camper at her locked gate. She actually sticks her head through your car window and eyeballs all the occupants.
If she 'doesnt like the look of' (her words exactly) anyone inside, they dont get in. This is before theyve rolled up in a van with trick graphics.
I would think that if you have chosen to 'stand out' - and why not, you have to be prepared for a few knock backs on the acceptance front when it comes to being admitted to sites here and there. As lets be honest, these rulings have been on the go for many years now.
Hopefully, when your van is properly converted (have you considered 'fake' smoked windows? I know its worked for others in the past - cheaper than real ones, but look convincing), it will be easier to gain access to more places.

I quite fancy the idea of being picked up by a young 44 year old
