After a crash of the hard-drive and with no back-up of favourite links at hand, I tried to gather my favourite member links by searching at the "Members" area... ...Yet, no sign of Michelle A. ... ...Is she out of Renderosity or have I done my search wrong..? Thnx... D.

Oh my, you are right... :( Her gallery's gone. I hate it when they do that! sigh

Well she did have a love/hate relationship with Renderosity as do I, so it comes as no surprise! She may come back

HUH??? Michelle has deleted her gallery??? when did that happen??? I just thought she was busy and that was why we didn't see her around much!! Didn't realize she was actually "gone"!!! Man!! Anybody knows the full story here??

Yes, she did, Pascale... And if I remember correctly, it's not the first time, so azy might be right - she may still come back. I sure hope so. Many artists have done it, many came back. I could never understand it, but I guess it's not my place to even try.

Oooooh! Thx Niu! Well, I can understand actually! Lots of things are quite annoying around here but hey...! Hope she will come back indeed!

Took a break.

she did say she may come back...

But why delete her gallery then. Just take a break, and come back. Sigh...that is frustrating. But her call of course. You can still see her at photo-genesis.net, though not her recent work. 8'{

There are a few of us that have that love/hate relationship here. Sorry to see her leave, but can only wish her the best. I do know that losing someone with as much talent, knowledge and experience as Michelle is a huge loss to this community. Brenda

I miss her images. Anyone have the address for her website? thanks

Oops..and I just posted a new thread with her in it... We will see. Each must do as each must, time and time again.

It is certainly a loss for all of us.Maybe whatever drove her to leave will ultimately lose importance.One can only hope.I was only just beginning to see her work and never had the time to see her gallery.Now I wish i had...

Oh my... this is really a loss! Hope she will come back soon! But I want wish her all the best on what ever she is up to! Most of us, me thinks, come to that feel now and then... me too. But when I feel I want to delete my gallery I always give it three day to think about LOL and then those feeling are gone. So I just take a break from time to time and then come back again as I always miss my Rendo friends!

OMG!!! Am I the only one here who doesn't take this place that seriously?????? Don't get me wrong, I love this place, but I'm here for the fun of it! The friends I've met are the best! We all have a common interest, we want to be an artist and we want to be better. Even I can see that some things here need to be taken with a grain of salt. AND there will always be one bad apple who upsets someone else, it's just in their nature, but you have to take in the whole picture......we are a community....we are here for one another! I hope Michelle will reconsider and return to RR. If nothing else, I hope Michelle has a commitment to her art that is keeping her too busy for being here and will let us all know so we can rejoice along with her! Gosh, is Andreas contagious or what? Bla bla bla!!!!! LOLP Kim
