I am deeply sadden by what has happened here. I'm not a great one for entering competitions but I enjoyed the informal ones held in the gallery. These images and their comments should never have been deleted. For the person responsible not to realise the effect this would have on people is truely shocking and shows how little repect the powers-that-be on this site have for the artists. I am tempted to look elsewhere for a more caring community ... however, it's the actual artists themselves that make this such a special place and I think it is about time the owners of Renderosity acknowledged that fact and started to respect the very people who line their pockets with silver!!
