My gallery is close to deserted. One of the reasons is that I did more character stuff. My character modeling is very unpopular. I think because it is not poser but made poly by poly. I do agree my two airplane pics since then were not that popular and they usually are very popular. My FC-1 very nice jet still has under 200 my most popular since the change. My I-16 has only 88. for airplanes that is low. For my character stuff I am happy if I get 50 views.
Partly my fault I have been trying to grow as an artist too much and not doing what is popular. I always foudn it odd that original characters are very unpopular here. If you go to CG talk or any other site is is the most popular thing there but here is ignored. Oh well I'll keep going. I do it for me and not for everyone else I do like to share.

I disagree about summer some of my most hits were in summers past july to be exact. And I think IMHO lol that my artwork is much better now then back then.
So ICM you do agree. I actually think it is some backlash to the changes either more picky at what we view or something.
So just an observation. Everyone having a nice HOT FREAKING HOT summer?
OK how about this NY was off the powergrid for eight days parts of some other big cities too ...even here in Fresno 19,000 homes were off last night - not the summer? whatever. OK then how about the heat?
It is the heat record heatwave According to the Yada on the local TV news about it California is gonna go off grid soon if it keeps up We're going back and forth between stage one and stage two alerts.
To answer your question - no. twenty pounds of lemons would go good about now as some real lemonade would really hit the spot. of course 200 pounds would be better. It's so hot. I could fry an egg on the hood of my neighbors car ... not that I couldn't do that normally here in summer but the heat is making me mean enough to actually do it..
I think there is anotehr thing to account for this. I may be so bold as to put forth a theory. That is that many of the non poser users are moving away from this site going to other sites where there is a better appreciation for what they do. So the poser users generally just look at poser pics so if you are not a poser user you are very likley getting less views. Just a theory.

Hm...I don't like the new forums as much as the old ones. As for the galleries, don't know either, haven't post anything the last 2 weeks, sat most of the time in the bombshelter. As a matter of fact, air raid siren going now, so byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
I think that the general body of viewers has dropped due to many having problems negotiating the new galleries.

I just do what I always do (at home), which is look at 'all and all'..must be those soothing new colors.
Dann-O, it's not just you; my modeling stuff is being ignored as well..;) you think someone would at least try to cadge a freebie out of it..;) (which I'd be happy to do, if anyone asked..;)

I noticed that viewership was down too since the changeover by about half, from around 2000 to 1100. But now today as I logged on I noticed that the count was up over 2100, so maybe things are returning back to normal. As far as Bryce viewership is concerned, it does seem that there are fewer people viewing the Bryce images now that Carrara has upgraded. And to be specific some regulars like drac and drawbridge have deserted the Bryce camp. But then, at the same time, I have also noticed alot of new first timers posting to the Bryce galleries. So it seem that yes, some are leaving, but new people are taking their places. And the circle remains unbroken, and the wheel goes round and round...........
I think I tend to agree with you. Character stuff gets more views on other galleries where I post. Renderosity has become a joke. I think it might be a good idea to do like other sites and just have things by catagory like sci fi aviation character etc. and not be able to sort by software. I don't know just thinking with my fingers. I agree 2D stuff is often ignored too. I should go to the 2D gallery again there are a few artists I like there too. I do so many drawings every day I only posted 2 2D images so far I think I took them down on a gallery cleanup.

This is also one of the only sites that erases C&C if it somehow "upsets" the poster. People start to clash when half of them want to get better/improve thier atistic skills and knowledge, and the other half doesn't care because its all just a time waste to them. Guy1:Hey dudes look at me, I can do 3d, and I get like 1000 views a week...I'm an artist. Guy2:Hey, why won't you look at me...I created all my content(that took some actuall talent)....is it because I havent done a nude woman?
I eat babies.
In all my time here I have only asked once to have a comment removed from one of my images. It was a blatant troll. To me that sort of removal is legitimate. I think the problem comes in that people are not always aware of what makes a good constructive crit and what is a sdtatement of personal opinion in terms of likes/dislikes.
Pass no temptation lightly by, for one never knows when it may pass again!

I have had one comment removed without my asking. I would actually have perferred that it be left there. It was a bit trollish but it was a valid point. I welcome criticism particularly constructive. If it is not constructive I have a fairly thick skin. I am perfectly capable of making things that are utter compleate shite. I would like someone to tell me when I do. I do weigh peoples comments I visit their gallery and things like that particularly if it is a negative comment. Better be prepared for a similar treatment but I do learn from comments. This is why I perfer some other sites. and I learn a lot from posting on them and reading them. I stay here because of the best Bryce and Wings forums on the net. (CGtalk wings forum sucks donkey.......but I like the site overall)
I used to get more upset about these things but now I know I learn lot from it and can filter out the bad.
Twisted Bolt you are on teh money. I stay her efor a few small reasons but I have been looking outside this site. I was a moderator at a similar site but smaller. There were for the most part a poser site and I ran the modelign forum and Wings forum. What happened is that every weeek there was a image of the week and usually it was a weak poser thing. While there were much better choices to be had. Well these people got sick of it and it becase a poser wastland with no original content. ( A couple really good car modelers did some great stuff and got the short shrift) I see this site as becomming that too.
OK maybe I should shut up now.

I have had text thumbs that only suggested of various lurid scenes to be had. It was enough. Often it was a play on words. I made an airplane pic of a P-47D often known as the jug. So I made a thumb with the text. 47D Jugs in Action!! that was enough.

I am getting the same amount of comments on my images as I normally have but with about 1/2 the viewers. Has anyone else noticed that?
It can’t just be me I don’t suck that bad… do I? lol
