Dear wendylee03,
Hello,
in my opinion your photographs are destroying the website. Please remove them? for what purpose in the world would anyone use your garbage pictures of someone holding a rose?
sorry to be harsh but, please?
dont try contact me. i do respect your effort and dont give up your interests cause of rude ppl like me (but serioulsy remove the pictures).
Best regards,
andreasog
Dont pay attention to the stupid things this rude guy says! your photos are very nice (and useful) and the reason why that site is losing popularity is quite different....
And I am sure that here we dont have such people!
Hi Wendylee,
Sometimes people get frustrated because of images getting rejected and take it out on the first person they bump into. Sometimes they just strike out for no reason at all. If your images are accepted then they have value but that doesn`t mean value for everyone.
I do a lot of illustrations, I make what I think is pretty on a screen. I would never imagine that everyone looks at them the way I do. Some might sigh and roll their eyes.... but hey I make them because I enjoy the procces and if someone finds them usefull then that makes me smile a little bit more.
Keep on doing what makes you happy and remember you can`t please the whole world.
Frankly speaking, I wouldn't give a damn. Do what you like to do as long as you don't harm anyone.
Wendy, there probably are some people here like that, but we haven't met them yet. You find them everywhere. I had some really scathing remarks about my images at that place, too. I used to leave them there. Some had some truth, others were just mean. But I am an amateur, and I know it, and if some genius out there has an "aha!" moment when he discovers the same thing, well, who am I to ruin his moment of triumph? LOL You have some excellent photos, and although it's unpleasant to have to share oxygen with morons, they are everywhere. However, if we ever find someone being mean like that here, I promise his account will not last very long, nor will he be welcome back. We care about our photographers and members.
I would know what to tell him. We got very special sentences like "Da ti jebem i oca i mater" or "Marš u pičku materinu".

Wendy, if you receive a similar letter from anyone on this site, please contact me through the "Contact us" link in the blue header bar and I will send them an appropriate response.
