I agree with elizabyte that the colors could stand being brightened. They look kind of flat and muddy. You've got some variety with plenty of cheesecake type thumbs so I don't think that's a problem. People click for different reasons. I clicked on "Prelude: Who's there" because I like more realistic renders and I liked the look of the skin and yes the rather kinky outfit. "Who's Up 4 a Game?" - because the old cross and cleavage juxtaposition is always intriguing :-) "My Best Render" - because it's always interesting to see how people handle an underwater scene. The main problem I see is not so much with the thumbnails but the images themselves. I really liked all three, especially the little surprise in the last one but all of them look badly compromised by compression artifacts. Maybe my eyes are just tired but it looks like way too much jpeg compression. The mermaid for instance is very blurred. If that's the case, then you need to look at how to reduce the compression and still post a decent sized image that meets the Kb requirement. Perhaps someone else can comment on whether they see the same thing. I use a freeware jpeg optimizer (Interactive JPEG Optimizer) that works pretty well (link attatched) or maybe you just need to tweak the settings in your editor."Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance." - H.
