If anyone's curious, I tried Epilogue, and submitted 4 pics, all of which clearly had "Poser and Photoshop" in the image description. 3 were accepted right away, and one was turned down, citing composition. Granted, those pics are a little more complex, but there seemed to be no second thoughts about how they were made. (If anyone's curious, those 4 pics also appear in my gallery here at http://www.renderosity.com/gallery.ez?ByArtist=Yes&Artist=Chas -- they're "Past Lives," "Cybele," "That Midsummer Night's Dream" and the rejected one was "Arcana"). And ShadowWind wrote: "I've seen so many works at art auctions that I wouldn't give a nickel for sell for $5000 or more, because perhaps in that viewer's eyes, the image speaks to them and therefore is art, at least to them." I've also seen folks shell out $5000 for art not because they appreciate it as art, but because they want the prestige of being able to say that they "get it" (even if they don't). Take care; Chas
