AW has been this way for years. Sometimes I think this is just a side-line hobby for the creator/staff that barely has time to keep up with the site. The last time I actually participated in something, years ago, it was the "calendar" event. Bought it but didn't receive the calendar until March or April.. A tad disappointed. But I think one of the main drawback of AW is their censor policy. Then again there is always those that will abuse anything.

Original Post: Joined Another site
I joined another site today because Art Wanted appears to have died. The staff has deserted and no one comes here anymore. I'm also looking into other sites as well. Uploads and comments here are very low and the staff doesn't seem to be around. Concerns and issues seem to go on the back burner. I'm not sure what is going on but the site I joined is Deviant art... I uploaded three images and four hours later I had 45 views, four comments and two favorites. I am still trying to figure out how to navigate the place and get my other foot in the door and other artist are already doing this. When I looked up best art sites Art Wanted wasn't on the list. I think that is saying a lot. I'm seeing some fabulous artwork on Deviant and some gorgeous photography. I'll see how it goes as it has started with a bang. I won't be leaving Art Wanted, but I'm not going to be expecting a lot either.
