There's been many long discussions about how limiting the number of postings also makes sense to lower the traffic on the galleries, and so give individual artists a chance to be viewed instead of being buried under a flood of graphics...it is especially disturbing to be buried when it is essentially the same graphic being posted three times while the artist tries to determine which he or she thinks looks best (that's something that should be decided before posting, methinks). It is very unlikely that most people can create 21 wonderful graphics per week, week after week, that are worth posting. A limit of 7 per week (or one per day) is hardly a severe limitation, or 365 a year, seems reasonable. I didn't always agree, but now that it takes me several days to do one graphic (I slow down the longer I work on Poser), I see that taking time with a graphic is really worth it. Why the rush to post? It's not as if we are trying to meet a deadline. And you can always do seven graphics over the weekend, and then just post every 24 hours. I'm not sure why that's such a big deal. For the rest, I tend to agree with xoconostle on many points...this is a service mostly free to us (except for those of us who pay for file space or the right to post additional graphics) so following a few restrictions doesn't seem so terrible to me. But that's just me.
