just a quick post about the IS forums. when someone states they will not longer participate in something, it is usually because they have had a bad experience, which I did. I'd like to clarify one statement coming from me two weeks ago that has been seized by a couple of people as proof of my lacking in credibility....in general, my participation in iStock forums is almost nil these days and that's where it is staying. I will not participate in threads the way I did over best match and sales thes last two months again, and that is a black and white statement.
I will still communicate via forums when it comes to critique requests and equipment advice etc. though these posts will also be few and far between.
I have said throughout my posts that iStock forums do not contain just anger and frustration, but that there is also a huge community of people willing to help other contributors without being rude or sarcastic.
I'm just heading off any additional finger pointing my way. the wolves can stay away please.
