I guess I should elaborate on why I'm not interested. I pulled my galleries here for 2 reasons. 1) an earlier thread that was identical to this one, in which the person who was the subject of spamming the hot 20 had one of her thugs/friends/cronies spam my galleries. Normally I ignore such nastiness and would have until reason 2) I submitted to a publisher. The images he chose got fewer than 100 hits. That in inself was a revelation, but moreso the REASON he gave me. "Images XX and XX and XX while nice, are a bit too stereotypical T&A. for our readership" Wow, so I had been busting my BEHIND to be good enough for this place, only to discover that what the Hot 20 deems as fantastic is only soft porn that no PUBLISHER would touch? Revelation time. Apparently the Semi clad Vicki in a temple/where-ever with that come hither/vacant/my underwear is too tight expression is only fit for THIS forum. No one else wants it, at least not the people who have checkbooks and are WILLING to pay for images. Sure, if this is a hobby for you, then go right ahead and conform to the image style that is promoted here, there isn't anything WRONG with that. However, if you have it in your head that you want to be a professional illustrator one day, then run VERY FAR and VERY FAST from the stereotypical image of Vicky
