No janart, no Moderator deleted posts here. Brendan has delted two of his posts that were just duplicates. And, Mrdodobird deleted one of his own posts. Nothing was deleted by Stormi, unless it was deletd by himself, before anyone could actually bring it up on this page, then it really woudn't exsist at all. (a site oddity) ------- The discussion of the Hot 20 is fine, heated but fine. The Bryce forum people seem to be able to vent without pulling knives on each other. Stormi's anger is quite quick and intense, and only in my opinion a little backhanded to mention character assassinations and then (imo) do just that. Sorry, no offense but to imply anyone that uses say, freestuff items in their work can only have "art" and not a work of art is a little slighted. (again, imo) To explain, we're not all pro's here, we don't always build abslouteley everything we have in a picture, we're just having fun and exploring our own expression and art. I hope you don't feel persecuted, because your picture "This Is Eden", is #4 right now in the Hot 20. The real issue is what was stated in the first post. That members don't always vote for an image on artitic merit alone, sometimes when explained what a blank page is about they are moved/touched by just that. It helps show that power behind the art can lie within the people and not just the picture on the screen. Sometimes the emotion is in the context of the idea. AgentSmith
