Sorry but I would have to agree with Paulie.. But honestly FeaturePics isn't worth the effort so why coming back??..

Maybe it is just my crappy portfolio that doesn't fit FP buyers, for sure Paulie I know :)

Yeah, what is the big deal there? Saw the station23 blog too with all the agency bashing. What's the point. They're not Agency Reviews. It's just a bunch of whining with ads in between. So who's next on your hit list?

The chap had 4 sales on DT in 3 years. Paulie gave a good and honest advice. Deleting a port (on FP)  wastes all the reviewer's time and money. Of course you can't come back then as if nothing happened.

Elena is a tough woman since she programs/manages the site virtually alone. I don't think FP will go under soon. I never had any problem with Elena, on the contrary. As long as she carries on, I will leave my port there, just out of respect and support.

Sidenote: I prefer wineblogs over whineblogs.  :D

Even though Elena seems to be a very nice person, I am afraid that FeaturePics will be the next to fall.


Check out the incident I had with Elena on my blog:
http://www.station23.com/featurepics-review/

I am not so sure she is such a nice person, only on the outside.
Maybe I am just being picky, but idk it seemed silly to me.


I went and read your blog and it seems that you understand the situation completely. "I am now not allowed to have another account." For some reaason you closed your account and now you changed your mind, but once you back out and close the door, you can't come back. It's that easy.

All the complaining about a new account, which was in error and upload limits are irrelevant. Elena got tired of telling you the same things over and over and you kept ignoring her answer.

Once you go, you're gone! And there is an upload limit, yours is ZERO. :) I'd guess that the site set your limit to none, so you wouldn't take up disk space and waste their time with uploads that you are not allowed to make.

Read this again, since it's your own words quoted: I am now not allowed to have another account. There, isn't that easier than writing a whole long blog page of complaining, that anyone reading will see as you being wishy washy, whining and that you made the decision, which is a done deal, now you want to come back, but it's too late. Stand by you choice to close your account and move on. If you didn't have sales for three years and your images were getting refused currently, why did you think it was a good idea six months later to come back to the same place? :D

ps I closed my FP account this Spring because I had no sales and I had originally thought it was a site for "Feature Pictures" and editorial, but their goals and direction changed. No problem, it didn't work out. For a year I had one photo left as an account holder, in case something changed, but I deleted everything else myself.
