Suggestion

0 min read
I sent this to the suggestion thing at the help desk.  I am certian it will be ignored or I will get a generic thanks for the idea but no note.  So many good deviants have been leaving and not showing thier art anymore and lets face it...THAT F*CKING SUCKS I have an idea on how to meet both sides of devarts current issue.  1.  Install a deature that allows deviants to set a warning when people go to thier page.  Not for every single deviation you click on just have it be a one time deal and have it keep track of a list of people you agree to see.  If you agree to see them then you cant really whine about it.  This would be an awesome feature

Removed

0 min read
I had one of my Deviations removed because someone thought it violated the policies.  It showed Serrah with a had around her neck.  I did not think it was that bad but apparntly someone was offended.  I posted it in July.  Its bullshit that they wait till now to pull it.  Further more if anyone has ever had a problem with a specidic peice and they told me why, I have removed it. So on the bright side I apparntly offended someone enough that they reported me.  I warned in my first or second journal that I am transgressive so thats like Viagra for me.  Anyway Serra and I will be doing a new shoot now that we are all settled in at school.  Hopef

It's obvious you have an idea of the direction you want to go with your photography, so stick with it and do the best with what you got. There are some people on this site that swear they are the "end all be all" of DA, don't let them get to you. No matter what it is, it is your work and that is all that matters. If you ever have a question about photography give me a shout, I'll help the best I can.
Since you missed the point (probably my fault since i get very angry about people who use the wrong categories) I'll point it out. These shots would be better put in either the Snapshots category or the Scraps section.

If you want some suggestions they'd be:

Less Clutter- The model is the focus of your shots so don't make her look cramped up unless you're going for the "sleazy hotel" look.

Lighting- We've established that you're working on it so that's a good thing.

Picture Quality- I'm not sure what camera you're using but it seriously does look like a webcam because of the graininess and the general washed out look.

Poses- These are important. At the moment you've got dime a dozen poses that every camwhore pulls thousands of times a day. Try something new. From the looks of things you've got a rather nice bed there, drape her around the posts a bit and keep the background simple and you've got something more interesting to look at than random snapshots.

Borders- Frame your pictures, they'll look much tidier and less casual if you do. Even putting borders around what you have here now will help the overall look a lot.

So there's some tips. And please be a bit more careful about which categories you put things in.
Thank you. I was actually trying to do something artistic not just snapshots. Each pose took between three and five minutes to set up and was shot at about 8 differant angles. From each shoot I discarded most of the photos. Alot of the color problems can be named as my inability to use my editing software well. I will try to improve but if you look at some photos I have taken where the light was good and I didn't screw up photoshoping it they arnt bad. Granted there is only one or two but its a start.
