You mean Bryce materials work in Vue? I didn't know that. You know, when I do a graphic (sorry, I pulled down my gallery so I can't prove this is true), I always list where I got everything from. If you use your own stuff, you should go ahead and let people know that. If they see something used in a graphic they like, they might tend to use it. There's a product showcase gallery just for that purpose. And when you advertise, do what you did here...show pictures. We're a visual lot --- strut your stuff. I noticed that your thumbnails are smaller than most people's who have stores. Don't be afraid to make them as large as the site will allow. Make those thumbnails stand out there. Here's another suggestion...if there is a Bryce artist you admire and are friendly with, give them a sample of your stuff and see if they will use them in a graphic. There's no better recommendation than word of mouth. :) Or offer to donate a packet as a prize for one of the Bryce challenges? The thing is to get your stuff out there so people know about it. I'd even ask a merchant who is selling similar items for suggestions on what they would do. Can you write a tutorial? Write one or two. Let people know about your skills. It's all about advertising. :) Good luck!!! And persist. It's not a lost cause...it's just a matter of keeping at it and trying new things until you find what works. :)
