Okay A couple of questions: 1)How is it limiting someone's creativity, by categorizing? There ARE galleries on Rendo for everything. 2)Why should someone post an image to the 'Fractal' gallery, if the focus of the image is clearly non-fractal (3D objects, Poser, tubes, photos, text, etc.)? Matt "I hear people bitching on about fractal art not being accepted in the mainstream and then when I think we are finally getting some recognition...We impose pointless restrictions on ourselves and push some of the best fractal artwork of the last few years into the mixed medium gallery..." So, exposing fractals to non-fractal artists is a bad thing? I still think that 'mixed' fractal/other works in the 'Mixed Medium' gallery would get more people interested in fractals. Mindy I don't feel your works are in violation. There is no problem with post-processing in this gallery. I used you as an example, BECAUSE of your use of post-processing. Now, if you were to throw in a Poser babe, 3D object, tube, etc. in them....well, that's a different story. Nick
