if you make a catalog and put the paints of Dali into...what is it ? art catalog or artist one ? Or if you put Dali and Goya, or Velasquez and the flowers of van Gogh or portraits of Rembrandt...and artist who make an art in taking pictures to animals, or peoples who make art with nudes or some who make it from nature...  do you think I'm wrong when I ask what kind of pictures do you want ? Cause maybe I like the idea and think to send you 2 pages...and maybe I will not like the catalog if I see it and between it's nature or cats or horses and some people nudes. If you watch closely on this website... you will see that there are people who has good rates for picture taken on the streets or to some cats or etc... you got the point... and others who really work for a picture an entire day, then more processing and have not a so good rate.... and their pictures are photography, not just simple jokes... which one is the art... ? who decide what art is ? you ? Renderosity ART community ?? You think that for example if I have 150 views and 3 comments for a picture I work a lot and other who just had the camera with him and surprised a cat starring and then posted it here and has 800 views and 50 comments...bla bla... and 8 - 10 fav.... that will be the art ??? ENLIGHT ME PLEASE THEN TELL ME THAT IF I SEND 2 PICTURES OF MINE WITH TWO FINE ARTS NUDES WILL NOT BE INTO A CATALOG WHERE I WILL FIND THE SKY OF SOMEONE OR THE STUPID LOOK OF A DAMN CUTE CAT, OR A TREE INTO THE WIND, CAUSE I RATHER PREFER NOT TO SEE A CATALOG LIKE THAT, THAT WILL BE ... A SOUP...
... and the other thing is not about the money... if you have a hundred person selected and you publish 10,000 copies ...that means you make money with... the 100 persons do they deserve  at least a book like this for free ?
You come and tell me that I should be proud and thankful that my work appears and people know me... but I tell you ...the internet it's enough for everyone to be known... the work ...the real work matters... and YOU SHOULD BE PROUD AND THANKFUL THAT YOU CAN MAKE A CATALOG WITH THE OTHERS PEOPLE WORK.
FOR YOU IT'S JUST BUSINESS, FOR ME (for ex.) it's passion, idea, work, sweat, and days...
I know my work and the value of my work, for this I ask what kind of theme do you have for de catalog... I don't think that some artists wants to be mixed in something that the hole part doesn't represent them... and the maybe I have nice pictures with people on the streets and I send you nudes then you publish a catalog with streets people or with flowers...
I REALLY HOPE YOU GOT THE POINT BETTER NOW...
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME !
