I agree 1000% with Gayla:
"...digital painting/art and 3D rendering are two different things, just as photo manipulations are not the same thing as photography.
I think Fractals should also have their own category. There's a lot of people who do them on here, so they kind of end up taking over the 3D rendering category on some days."
To expand a bit: If a new category is not possible for Fractals, which are not made with 3D modeling software, they could be brought together with the Digital Art/Painting category: Digital Art/Fractals.

Original Post: ArtWanted.com Gallery Revision?
As everyone knows, ArtWanted.com has 10 main 'galleries' for our site that can be seen on our home page and the top-right corner of every page on our site.
The concept behind this was so that those people that were only interested 'photography' could surf arwanted only looking at photography and not have to look at any other type of artwork. These galleries don't really have to do with the subject of the artwork, but more to do with the style or technique of the artwork. We want to keep this number under 10, but think we may need a small revision to what we have had in the past.
Although most people like to look at all the styles of art, there is a good percentage of people that surf our site within a specific gallery only. We want to continue with this concept, but we are wondering if they should be revised and we want your feedback.
Right now, there are several categories that overlap each other and some people are confused which gallery to put their artwork in. We would like to combine a few of these, so that it's easier to the user, what gallery to look in. These galleries in question are:
We would like your feedback & suggestions on what alternate galleries we could use to combine these 5 types of art into 2-3 galleries.
We plan to keep the other galleries as they are, except that we will be removing the 'Interactive' gallery, because of the lack of interest it has on our site. These people & their artwork will be merged into another gallery category.
