Beautiful sci-fi pinup! It is certainly frustrating to have your art removed from the galleries, especially without explanation. I for one will be very sorry to see you give up art and leave this site. It has always been a pleasure to view your work!

Oh, no, don't go. You are one of my favorite artists. I have had a couple of my images taken down also, but I was told why. I didn't necessarily agree with one of them but ... You should have been told why in any case.

i thought something was there then gone, did not have time to comment when i saw your three uploads. mighty cool sci fi, thanks.many of us have had images removed, most of mine i was given note.

Great scene, wonderfully done. Yea, been some strange stuff going on. I personally will miss your work.

Great SF image!

If that other image vanished, did you try re-uploading it again and see what happens? Perhaps the size was too big?

Yeah I committed on Game over 2 but now I don't see it. I know how you feel to say the least. Seems like AI art is the future, and vendors will be the losers for it. I love your work as it has inspired me, I just hope you keep rendering for your own pleasure.

Young hearts be free tonight Time is on your side Don't let 'em put you down Don't let 'em push you 'round Don't let 'em ever change your point of view. song by Rod Stewart.

I did see it and comment; it was wonderful. This is a fantastic pin-up!

The "moderators" (what a stupid name !) are hopeless, here (and there)...I had several images removed without a word of explanation...the problem is the other sites are even worse (if possible !). Great job anyway.

That's really strange. Who did you try to contact? Some of the staff respond rather quickly, so maybe you need to try a different person. I do love your work and I hope you will stay. I know some images have been removed temporarily in the past when there was thought to be a violation but returned when the confusion was cleared up.

It's too bad your awesome image is nowhere to be found on this site, I consider myself lucky to have seen it and commented on the great job you did with the lighting and fire effects. You did an outstanding job with it!

As someone who previously thought about leaving this site due to the many changes taking place, I hope you will reconsider your decision as your art work is always enjoyed by many on this site. Having said that, I personally would not be happy if I worked on an animation for three months only to be taken down with no explanation as to why...so I do understand how you feel my friend!

So sorry for all the frustration and confusion this has caused! After seeing this, I have reached out to a member of staff and have gotten this response in regards to the situation. I hope this clears everything up and I hope you will continue to stay and continue to produce your work. If you have any further questions or concerns, please just send me a sitemail or reply to my comment and I'll try to have it addressed.

Their response: "Images that might be TOS violations are put on hold while they're reviewed. If it's decided that the images are fine, then we remove the hold. Since they aren't being deleted and reuploaded, when they are removed from hold, they return to the place in the galleries where they were to begin with. If the images are violations, and need to be deleted, we site mail them and let them know it was removed and why, or if a flag was added. Usually, images are only on hold for 24 hours but occasionally, they'll be on longer."

WTFudge...I can't believe I'm reading this. I too have had the same situation so I just uploaded it again, sure enough it was accepted...and 2 days later the original reappeared back in my gallery, and so I had two versions with likes and favs split. I must point out my image had boobs and yes I did flag it nudity...but I never found out why it was pulled.

Stef I implore you to reconsider, please take note of all the comments above!

Pissed off now... :(

You have been with us a long time and your creativity has always been appreciated even if the clicks don't tell that story. Maybe just take a little break until "holds" and explanations are done. If you create for your own enjoyment and improvement, then don't allow ANYONE to steal your joy. Not a Mod, or viewer comment or lack of a click. I for one, will be happy that you stayed. After my husband's death when I was forced to leave my art behind and come out of retirement and go back to work, I was very happy to see you still here after my 2-3 yr absence. Just sayin' :)

Woooww……really amazing 👍🙋‍♂️

Awesome Sci-Fi. Greta job with details.

Hmmm....I just saw Game Over 2 and faved and commented on it. So it is back. Great work that, and great work, this! Really pro illustration class art here! I would have bought a book with this on the cover back in the days of scifi artbooks in bookstores.

I checked 9/30 6:45am and Game Over Part 2 is still available in the Activity Feed on my computer. It is also available in my Favorites as well. I clicked on it, and it comes up full screen everything is working fine. Not sure what is causing it not to show up on your computer if it is not already back. Maybe it was a glitch.

This is another fantastic upload; you always have so much detail put into your creations. Fantastic POV and very cool ship and rover.

Game Over Part 2 is there. I just saw it and it's fantastic, as is this one.

There is one thing you can be sure of and it is that you're not the only one having had issues with some moderators over here, the sad thing is being left without a proper explanation now and again. I hope you'll find the hope within you to overcome your hurt feelings and trust yourself beyond everything else. Your friends and visitors here count on your artistic skills and creations.
