Hello Renderosity,

Im really dissapointed and need to share a problem with you .
I made a new image last week called 'riaq' which can be found here:
http://www.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/index.php?image_id=1736292&member

I was pleased with the image and was lucky enough to have the image faved 60 or so times placing me at number 1 position in the artcharts.I was also placed as number 3 on the fav artist chart due to being faved 15 times or so.That was nice to see people liked what Im doing still.I was put on th charts on weds,not monday as before?No big deal,but the next day I was dropped to 4th postion and today Im dropped to 44th postion(so what but please read on).Im not bothered about where my images are in the charts (if they are or not)but I am bothered by reasons for why an image would be dropped and what it could look like to others following my work.

In the terms of the charts::

Renderosity's Art Charts are calculated based on a wide range of information for each category, taking into account statistics for images, artists and vendors from the last week of gallery traffic. Each category has a unique method of rank determination that has been thought out and tweaked carefully to help make the Charts a fair and informative representation of the most enjoyed art during the last week. The Art Charts are calculated each week sometime after midnight, server time, on Sunday nights (Monday mornings).

Favorite Images
Favorite Images are determined by the number of members that have added an image to their favorites during the last week. Should a tie exist between two images (as it often does), the winner is determined by which image is the newest image. If an image uploaded yesterday has the same number of favorites as an image uploaded last week, it most likely is the more successful of the two images. Members can only add an image to their favorites once, and careful checks are performed regularly to ensure no one person has duplicate accounts to house favorite images.

For the reason highlighted in red I would like the forums to offer me an explination please.I have kept all the emails in reference to the image being faved and myself over the last week and will have to write to each person if I cant get any help.I wrote to renderosity yesterday but have not been replied to as yet.

I would like what has happened explained and would like my name cleared of any wrong doing.
Im embarressed to of recieved a mail asking whats going on in the charts already albeit from a good friend.

I love this site and it has been a great part in my work getting noticed and Ive had wonderfull years here.Am I a vicitm of a simple date issue?Im going to follow all the links when Im home from work to see who faved me unless Ive been helped with my issues by any staff .

Thanks for reading,
