Doro, I respect your opinion, and you have a perfect right to it. However, others have a right to their opinions as well. That is what democracy is about, whether it's the German flavor of democracy, the US flavor, UK, or any other democratic nation. However, I take issue with your comments "But the content of the vue gallery - don't know how the other galleries are - is more and more filled with work of people I can't count to the artist community. Pictures without any inspiration, no artificial value, only gloryfying a worldwide very controversial discussed war." Because 1 or 2 people are posting images relating to the war DOES NOT mean everyone is. In fact, I'm stil seeing (and posting, myself) a lot of beautiful landscapes, seascapes and other images. So to infer that the Vue gallery is turning to some type of propaganda machine is just plain incorrect. I've seen various and sundry commentary on the war, on 11 Sep 2001, on Afghanistan, in other galleries in the past few years; those folks are fully entitled to post their images, at whatever level of skill they may be, for whatever reason they post. If it's ok to post constant pictures of women's breasts and genitals in the Poser gallery, why is it wrong to post an image, humorous or not, about a world event that someone feels strongly about? And there's a simple solution to your problem with the images some folks are putting in ANY GALLERIES, not just VUE....DON'T CLICK ON THE THUMBNAIL.
