Hi all! Thanks for the thoughts on the FWW. Thought I'd explain what the FWW was/is supposed to be :D We started it as a way to show others more of what our gallery is comprised of. We started it as a way to show the many different styles and programs that are used. More of a quick glance of the whole. Something that an outsider could look at and say "Holy crap! That's Fractal art?! I gotta check out the rest of that gallery!" This also gave us a chance to showcase many who had not or may not have a chance in the Hot 20. Of course, if someone does not want their image to appear in it, that's okay too...just let us know. Tony- Thanks for explaining. We really appreciate it :D Now...the Fractal of the Month... Yes, we see the points made on it. Please note it was meant with best intentions. We wanted another way to recognize artists here, and a way to fill that 'Featured Fractal' spot on the Community page. Being that our gallery is one of the largest on Renderosity, it would be way too time consuming to try a vote on the entire gallery. So, we thought of just using the FWW for it...narrowing the choices a bit. Of course, as we make our weekly selections there are sooo many that should be recognised. So, we do see that it has not worked very well. In fact, we see that it is pretty much going against what the FWW was supposed to stand for, and we really don't want to destroy that. That said, we are going to discontinue the FOM/FOY. But, we are working on other things for the new year that all may enjoy :D Hope everyone is well and groovy, and having a great weekend! Nick
