Renderosity always has been and always will be a 3D site/market place.
Sites like this can't compete with Social Media. (Facebook, Twitter, Flckr..etc etc..)
After I left the staff, I found myself spending more time with a local group I started.
Now, I even that has slowed to a trickle.
I stopped coming here for very personal reasons..
Honestly, the over use of Social Media is causing a backlash...People get tired of all the bull shit..nit picking..politics..etc etc..It's stopped being FUN...
I spent YEARS...trying to make this place better..Trying to keep people interested and enjoying activities..
Once I left the staff..I couldn't buy a comment...not even a negative comment..Maybe nobody is interested in concert photography..BUT..outside of Renderosity..I had decent reactions from people..including the performers I had photographed..and constructive comments from my peers in the field..
On a personal note..yesterday I said goodbye to my best friend in concert photography..42yrs old is way to young to die..His struggle for the last 9 months has changed me forever...
