I do not whant to participate with my pictures on this site anymore.. But I cant find the deletebutton....... Have deleted the pictures by hand... There must be a deletebutton? Please tell me were to find it! to all the friends I have made here.. during my allmost 4 years stay.. I say goodby & good luck in your life.. & of corse Puss & Kram and for U others who thinks I'm a pain in the arse... Now U don't have to bother!!! I'm leaving!!!!!

You will have to remove them one at a time...call up your own gallery..then you will see the button under your images

Thank U Bruse!!

Please Modesty. Take a day off RR to think about this please. This mass-hysteria thats going on is benefiting nobody. #:o( I would miss you too damn much, so be a doll and reconsider please.

I agree with Andreas. The unfortuntate victims here are the viewers...new and established...hang off for a few days at least, let dust settle a wee bit, its a big sacrifice to consider, but don't forget people get pleasure from looking at such talent and its the same ones that'll miss out if its gone.

Come on....
No ones gonna miss my pictures here!!!!!!!!!!!
& I feel misstreated!!!

and I'm not feeling comfortable here any longer....

I'm allso a lousy "lobbyist" :)
So It will be better without me......

I'm allmost thrue with the deletingthing...
& I feel no regrets!

Im gonna miss your pictures Modesty, and even more...im gonna miss YOU!!!! #:o(

I agree with Andreas* that it's not a good idea to delete your gallery ans that we will miss you !!! please think over that before acting !!!
please.... Amicalement Magali

• even if I don't admit his terms "mass hysteria"

I can agree that the term "mass hysteria" is slightly exaterated. But way too many people have left this place these last couple of days, and all seem to have the same reason for doing so. I just think its a damn shame, and i hope things settle soon before even more people start feeling uncomfortable and leave. #:o(

Why isn't it a good idea to delete my gallery? When all those I respected, admired and who have learned me everything is now gone? And when I have realized I don't fitt here? It's really no mass hysteria!! It's the fact! I do this as a protest! But allso an act of respect for those I admire!!!! & when my words being deleted & I don't either getting replies on my questions... Why showing/sharing my pictures? Thank U all those who have been my friends here! a last Puss & Kram

Did anyone of you, that keep saying youre leaving this place as an act of protest and support, stop to think that perhaps youre causing your friends more harm than good? I respect and admire them as much as you do Modesty, and i also respect and admire you as well. But all those uploads these last few weeks from different people with nothing but rants in them only make it look like they got rallyed up by the members in question. Hence they look even more guilty of disruption and conspiracy. There are many ways to show support and respect, and i just dont think this is the way to go. But nobody should have to feel bad to be a part of this place. If they do, then they should leave or whatever makes them feel good. Renderosity sure isnt worth feeling bad about. No site is. I love this place, and im sure many others do to. And i am gonna stay on here for as long as it feels good for me. I wish we could all stop this bickering and get on with our lives already. And for the love of God, will everyone that has a problem with all of this, stop blaming Doug? One person alone isnt responsible for the decisions that now have become an issue for so many people. Its easy to point the finger at one person, but this is getting to become quite ridicilous. There...ive said my peace...and perhaps i should keep staying out of the forum now huh? LOL. #;o)

Oh Modesty, please don't leave. Its unfortunate that some people had left but by leaving here too, it does them no justice. It would be nice to show what you have learned from them. Like Andreas said, take some time off and maybe even sign the blues. I hope you reconsider and stay. Aloha....Errol

Andreas, I want to assure that I didn't blame Doug cause he's only moderator, and above all cause I don't know what really happened about Cindy departure But even if I effectively agree with you thinking it's not good for the photo members, making chaos, somes who want to post a dedi to Cindy are right doing... Like you, Hope that we could go about our lives ... q:) Hugs and Amiti for all of members Magali

Of course they should post dedications to Cindy and whoever. I think thats a wonderful way to show your support. I think youre missing my point. Im only saying ive seen way too many dedications lately with notes directly pointing out Doug as the bad guy, saying what an asshole and what not he is. Bitching and moaning about this administration. And thats just pathetic in my opinion. A sad fact is, that certain people only appear in times of trouble. They feed on other peoples misery if you will. I hope that all that have left will think better of it and return when theyre good and ready. Only natural to get sick and tired of all the drama, and we all need some time away every once in a while to clear our heads. Its been said that artists are the most sensitive of people so of course there will be indifferencies and arguments. I just wish we could all stop pouring gasoline on the fire and enjoy the fun in sharing our work and our knowledge. #:O)

Dear modesty - don't go! This site is already bleeding too much talent!

It is sad to read this. But I respect your choice.... don't give the "bad" side of this community a chance... show them that we have power..... but I totally understand your feelings....I had my doubts too, but I have some wonderful friends here..... People I trust, not that much if I may say.... My list is not that long, but who I know are people I caring in my heart !! The most important one is my Soul mate Danob... I am happy that he try to get this a better place for all of us !!! Without his part as coord...and his honesty.....I think it will be the end of trust..... And I know what you mean...there is no button too click all in once....I hope you change your mind...... Ilona

I agree with Andreas. Do what you must but lets get back to doing what is best for all here. I interject no more on these thoughts and continue as a member with the good side of things we do have..and that is a very large good side. Tom. None of us can be responsible for the personalities and personal reactions of others.

i dont want you to hit delete i love and admire your work so much . please dont go you are so special and such a special part of this site . i love your work so much. lets not tear down all the work cynlee did to build this place up but honor her by doing what we love photography . i do not want to offend i just want to share and give as i know you do . begging you not to leave. hug to you kimarie

Speaking of taking a break!!!! OMG! What is going on here???? I was gone for a week and all hell broke loose! Modesty.....I think not being able to delete your whole gallery with one button is a good thing..... it would be too easy to walk out and maybe it shouldn't be..... because there isn't a button to bring it all back. I am in total agreement with Andreas on all the points he's brought up. One thing I can add is that you are an inspiration to many more people then you think! There is a whole community of artist here that is growing day by day. I just hit my first year and I can't even describe how much of a "family" I feel part of! Yes, maybe a dysfunctional family at times, but family none the less!!!! As we all know, families have there ups and downs and misunderstandings and flare ups, but as someone who just lost a real family member, I can tell you, it hurts!!! It hurts to lose you, Modesty! It hurts everytime someone, I have just started to get to know, leaves! I wish you would reconsider! Stand back..... take a deep breath... take some time for yourself. Just remember that even if there are some people (family) here that are driving you crazy...... there are also others (family) here who love you and hate to see you hurting this way. Hugs!!!!! Kim

I'm speechless...Oh Modesty...you have made me so sad with this news.You have been one of the things I love most about RR...I always love your incredible positive energy and enthusiasm...not to mention your wonderful art. I will miss you terribly. Today C.c. is for Crying crow. <") sniff

Dear MB!!!! I WILL MISS YOU!!!!!!!!!! LOVED YOU FROM THE MOMENT I SAW YOUR FIRST IMAGE!!! I LOVE SEEING THE EBOTS IN MY MAIL WITH YOUR NAME IN THEM... PLEASE DON'T DO IT!!! I don't know what all of this deleting stuff is about but I wish it would stop, and I'm thankful that it hasn't reached me yet... Maybe there is one good reason to stay in Africa, everything gets to you last...

I too hope that you change your mind. You've got such an incredible talent and your images are always so inspiring to me. Hugz Noeline

Another great loss...will this place ever be the same? I'm almost glad I missed all this hoopla this weekend. :/ I come to RR to enjoy myself and be among friends. This is not enjoyable...

Awww....Come here Kort. It will be okay, youre still amongst friends. HUGGGGSSSSSSSS!!!!!! #:O)

I see we're getting ourselves together again... Duck poop haha! I know how it feels ;-)

Oops, sorry for my typos...re-posting my comment: Awww, thanks Andreas. That is just what a needed, a hug from a fuzzy Swede. ;] It just bothers me when people delete like this in support of a memeber. What about all the other friends they say they have here? It kinda makes one feel unimportant, ya know? Duck poop. But I know she is upset and it wasn't something directed AGAINST the other members. It just feels that way somehow... Happy face reassembly commencing... 8 ' ]

I just hope she knows how very much she will be missed. And Modesty...just in case you come back and see this...love ya sotnos,och saknar dig.

Sorry folks if U are upset over my decition...
