I'm gonna miss Sir7 he was sarcastic, moody and unpredictable. That's what made his posting fun. Plus the pictures he uploaded of course. A wild child.

So many people are just crabby without being interesting in the least little bit.

AW counts members who have come and gone in its totals - which I think is misleading - they celebrated 10,000 quite some time ago - and considering there is a very small number paying and a smaller number active, it is more misleading.

The number of images on the site seems impressive but having too many images is almost like having none - it's hard to find the small needle in the haystack.

The site has value to me because I can direct people toward new images I've created but I'd like to be able to do bulk additions without having them flood the new additions page.

I have a client who wants to see some new images which might mean posting 50 over a few days. There has to be a wya to do this.

There are different ways to count members, and it just depends what you are looking for. For example, there are currenly 15,138 members of our website as of today.

However, only 9,393 of these people have images in their portfolio. There are a ton of members that are not artists, but like to rate and comment and so forth, so they get an account but don't have artwork.

There is also another number which we consider 'active' artists on our site. These are artists that are posting messages, comments or new portfolio images at least monthly.

It just depends on how you look at it, but one thing is for sure, the number are going up each month. Take care.
