Frankly, I don't like the direction this discussion is taking. There are plenty of ART websites out there, if that's what you're into. I fell in love with Renderosity precisely for the reason that it's not elitist.

I'm no pro, I don't aim to be an artist. I love photography and I love sharing my work with friends. I had been looking for a place to do that and I've been taken aback by many such "artsy" websites, I just never dared to publish anything there. Nor was I interested with snap-shot swapping. I needed something in between and that's exactly what Renderosity proved to be for me.

I like a lot of your work, GiMi53, but I'm not sure what  you're trying to show here. That you're better than someone else? Well, enjoy the feeling. I don't care. 

For me it's about sharing and improving here, not patting myself on the back because: "gosh, this guy's work is crap, I'm sooooooooo much better." Anyone who feels like that, stay away from my galleries, please, and stick your comments up some dark place.

Those of you who are willing to help or just plain enjoy the hobby are the reason I'm here.
