Hentai-Foundry: Done

Been trying for a long time to get a decent gallery up and running over at hentai-foundry. After two 'accidental' account deletions over the years and god knows how many blocked uploads, I can honestly say it's not worth my time anymore.

If I can sell images to businesses for a decent turn and try putting the same level of work up on a site like that only to have it turned down on the same points that I got complimented on, then I gotta say that someone calling the shots is pretty dense. It stings, but it's not the sting that's making me stop trying over there. It's the many, many extra hours of work I've tried putting into work that I intended to go up over there and having it get turned down. If I put in more than forty hours in a month with only a handful of images resulting and they are polished to a level that could easily go into a magazine or book, and then get told they don't meet quality standards compared to some of the doodles people put up there, without any input beyond quality standards, it's not worth my time.

Final decision, hentai-foundry is not worth my time as an artist. As a fan, there's still plenty of good stuff to surf through. Not going to be trying to add anything else to my hentai-foundry account anymore.

I know. I would never ask them to try giving me a tutorial, but a few points of explanation would be nice. If it's a hand, say it's a hand when citing anatomy problems. If it's a quality issue, say that the lines are sloppy or something. Doesn't need to be much more complicated than that in explanation and it would lead someone to actually pay attention to a problem without having to be quite so embarrassed.

I laugh a little at some critique posts in the forums there, but also feel bad that no one is bothering to tell them anything before they go out there all depressed or angry. It'd be better for all concerned if they knew what to expect before trotting out there after a post denial.

It's a clean and pretty gallery site, mostly, but it could be so much better. I say that being part of a few gallery sites that are even more discerning, but also allow creative wiggle room.

Heh, over time I've had nine images total in there. I've got four in there right now. I wonder what the trick is to getting images approved.
