No, I know it's not unique. However, the value of having one's work published in what is essentially a vanity publication is dubious. What sort of "exposure" is it going to get? Who's going to care if your work is in there? I've been posting work at R'sity for years now and have never gotten ANY work this way. I've gotten work from my own website, from posts at Renderotica, from posts in a graphics group to which I belong, but never, ever from R'sity. Therefore, the value of me paying them a couple hundred bucks that may just go right out the window is... let's just say I've got better things to do with the money, things that will actually be of use to me as an artist (software, hardware upgrades, etc.). And yes, people DO pay to publish my work. ;-) bonni
