That's an easy one, Deagol. Ask Terry Wright if he felt welcome by posting his art in the fractal gallery. In fact, he felt so unwelcome (he was urged to post his work in 2D instead) that he took a six-month haitus. Terry is a wonderful artist who uses fractals as a jumping off point, as I do, and sometimes the fractal isn't evident as these rules would like it to be. Terry was only recently told his fractal-based digital art was welcome in the fractal gallery. The point is very simple, so simple, it's almost beautiful. Let the artist decide where his/her image belongs. Is that so hard? Is that so threatening? Since you put out a challenge, I have one for you: I challenge you to illustrate how such subjective, absurd rule enhances an art gallery instead of stifling it. Mindy
