Arrrgh! OK. Having gotten that off my chest. [Nude bodies with claw'ed cats. Painful.] I think it's a nice thing that 'osity gives us a place to post and hang out. I don't expect a lot more out of the site than that; they get their money from 3D stuff, and are happy with high hit counts, no matter what folks are having fun with or excited about at any particular time. Given that framework, our Mods, and many of the folks here, are extremely dedicated, not only to their Art, but to building a community of sharing people. They are also very open to different styles and skill levels. If this Forum, or the Gallery, is not what WE want to make it. Please don't whine and complain, or slink away without an explanation. I, and several others, have stepped up and tried to provide possible directions. Honestly, it does not bother me at all if folks don't respond and continue contributing in these directions. [Well, it does bother me a little, but at least I've reached a few.] If you want it to go in different directions, take us there. We have some folks in the Gallery who are not very skilled, and who are not willing to evolve. Does that drive the good people away? Maybe. So the rest of us should encourage the trollers and porn snappers to leave. We shouldn't always be sticking our Moderators with this distasteful job. At least, we should keep posting images that far outshine their feeble efforts. Maybe they will learn. There are folks posting in the Gallery who are not very skilled, but who are willing to learn. [I number myself among them, BTW.] If they seem willing to learn, invite them over to the Forum for more in-depth discussion. [Cynlee has been very proactive in this, and I complement her!] Perhaps we'll all learn something. If we are going to have an abundance of Cat pictures in the Gallery, let's at least have some GOOD cat pictures. I've never beem successful at photo'ing these mysterious creatures. Maybe hyperboria, or someone else really skilled, could teach us? If we are going to have T&A, or the male counterparts, let's have GOOD T&A. Serge and several others are quite skilled at this. [I've always been too damn shy, and those that took their clothes off for me... well didn't have photos on their mind at the time...] If you have knowledge in this area, teach the rest of us. While I'm ranting here, and before I go and get another brandy, I must remember to thank 'Chelle, and a few others here, for being the persons you are and for posting the images you post.
