if those that have there work taken ...cant they do a class action law suite to those servers and/or people that keep doing this and get them stoped and monetary damages awarded?

that may be so but when someone is shown to be stealing images or as a repeat offender something more needs to be done, something more then a slap on the wrist

You have it right. The people that keep doing this get off with nothing but a closed account if that much most times. Not just one webshots. Trust me if there was more to do Let me know I would help in an instant!

I have had the similar problem with msn and its groups! and they will do something only after most times you threaten legal action.

NO no flame war...NO....bad very bad... ANywayyyyyyyy... I had noticed this not just in poser galleries. But in others. just poser is where I look the most. It just struck me as curious, I mean I see some really great peices but lil or no views or lil or no comments. I was just curiouse as to why this happened. ~smiles~ Perhaps we can get Renderosity to open a gallery section for naked woman in temples. lol. They are popular and that way we can see how others percieve the naked temple dieties! :) {and thank you to snowsultan for the great Temple of Nehkehdnez for such inspiration! I still love that piece lol} OHh and here is an example of what I am talking about... http://www.renderosity.com/viewed.ez?galleryid=317723&Start=1&Sectionid=0&Form.Search=snowsultan&Form.Criteria=ALL It has beautiful lighting, and {not trying to be vulgar} some of the best breasts I have seen on a poser model they look natural not like hooter saluters. it has huge amount of hits but ..well it didnt have comments till just abit ago. {disclaimer: artist has nothing against hooter saluters the above statement was to only show opinion of natural looking breasts as opposed to barbie like perfect conical shaped appendages. artist has used and will probably use again said barbie like appendages in future:)on her models}

I cant do anime to save my life! and I cant see how you took it as directed to you either! and See no big nekkidness and you have huge amount of viewings and comments. so naked doesnt equall viewings. and side note....Nothing wrong with nakedness...really there isnt. I am just in the bald naked woman thing...LOL.

I do not want to pay more for gas! my god it is almost to the point of having to get gas gift ceritficates for presents!o.o anywho...Naked does not equal comments. lol nor does it equal how many look at it. and actually galactron I thought that had been directed at me :S. we both apparently took it to heart lol. Still...when you work in art..and you are creating day in and day out it is hard to suddenly come up with that inspiration to do something that is really wow. You have deadlines..and pressure and you have people going .."no not like that I need it this way..:" and when you wind down you sometimes want a no brainer. or you want to do something just for personal pleasure. Like I said in another thread ..I rarely see bad pictures in here. I see alot of work put into pieces. I mean dont we all do "fluff" pieces? {ya know the ones just to put something up}

O.O blandly pretty? stagnant? Some of the art that I have seen with no comments can not be described as such. not new work ..work that has been here. and sometimes well heck you have to give the brain a slow down and do something that is just pretty. It is hard trying to be unique all the time LOL. Besides dont we all sometimes just render to ...render?

lol the temple of Nekkidness!!!LOL

~smiles~ good points! It was just something we noticed that pieces that have had hundreds of viewing had no comments or only one or two. I do try to make comments. But you are right Aleks. I dont always do it myself. I guess that is part of the question too. LOL.

I wish to send my condolences and best wishes. They will be in our prayers as well. DarkElegance

ahhhh thank you. I kept trying to get it to work..lol those people must be wondering what all those messages are that are titled "just testing this again to see if I can get it to work" ..LOL. I appreciate this. Now I will stop fiddling with it. Thank you all for the help. :)

I was confused because you can actually type something in with a subject line and all. I was going half nuts trying to find the posts.lol

ohh thank you I kept wondering what I had hit wrong or something lol :) thank you
