Panny and Linda are completely above board. They are women of integrity. Panny as much as encouraged all of us to submit what the publishers ask for- based on the choices for previous years, preumably so we all have the best chance to have our images considered. Thank you, Panny. As she explained, she and Linda are co-editors and facilitators. Nothing more (except for great fractal artists). Potential purchasers (of the calendar) want to see characteristic fractals; from the publishers' experience over the years, that's what sells. It's up to us individually, through our own efforts..and in different arenas, to change the general perception of fractal art. And, IMO, it won't happen by displaying them in a calendar. That's akin to expecting Hallmark to market real poetry. Just my two cents.
