I think that with the clamp down on nudity in Renderosity's pursuit of a "professional image" (whatever that is) has driven the fustration level of many users through the roof. And since its 'their' site and 'their' rules, many have left. Witness the explosion of new personal 3D web sites. I don't think they'll be back, nor do I blame them. shrug Challenges; what's the point now that many of the most talented, experienced, and knowledgeable people have left? Personally, after having deleted my entire gallery last night, I'm struggling for a reason to keep comming back. : (
