OK...I'm relatively new here, and I don't have a lot of time to spend online but when I do view new fractals, I am always amazed at the high quality of work that goes into the posted images. But unfortunately, in the last two months several top fractal artists have left suddenly. Of those, only one gave a specific and, understandable reason. The others sound genuinely PO'd... Is there something we should know? Are these isolated incidents...or..were they pushed out? Should us newbies leave too? So, can someone come clean and tell us what the real problem is here?

In youth, we learn....with age, we understand.
