The Little Cottage on The Moon.

Awesome! I love this! -
From one of the members: And my reply:

Well, I should have a bit of spare cash next year, which will take care of the cost of setting the thing-up. But with 12 fully-fledged membership sites on the go already, I simply don't have the time for monitoring any more. So I am going to need the promise of a dedicated, thoroughly spam-hating, very aggressive full-time moderator to keep an eye on the thing for me - and eject any spammers with all due haste on a daily basis! I'll also need some suggestions for the different categories of the Forums, Gallery set-up etc., etc... Any offers?

Google and Co... I have given-up with them a long time ago! They keep on changing their algorithms every five minutes anyway. If they want to send me traffic, well that is very kind of them - but if not, it's up to them! I just figure that if If I can make websites that people like and find useful, then the word will get around sooner or later - with or without Google! So if any member here can give us a little 'plug' in their blog or whatever social networking site they may happen to belong to, then we would be immensely grateful! Any views on the mega rip-off industry of so-called SEO - the Search Engine Optimization that people seem to spend an inordinate amount of time, money and worry on?

I quite liked that first track! 'Tried the next one and had to turn it off, half way through...

Ah! That could explain why he has obviously slowed down a bit!

The colours are connected

Hehe! Great concept! -
'First thing I noticed was the 'ghosts' and I think they are brilliant! I wasn't sure if they were ghosts or just reflections in the glass but, either way, they turn a fairly normal "still-life" into an interesting picture!

Mr Bunny and Mrs Bunny

Well I think your bunnies are very original - and colourful! -
Well.. You done a very good job of it! (A lot of people seem to have quite some trouble drawing hands... You obviously figured it out already but for any struggling beginner who doesn't know this - the trick is to just draw what you see, not what you think you see. One good way of doing this, is to look at the space around the hand. If it is white, fine! Use a black pencil to draw the edge of the white bit!!! It really doesn't matter what colour it is. Just draw the space around the hand, rather than the hand itself. And then fill-in the detail like finger nails and wrinkles, (if you've got any!!)

Awesome!

If you click on "Mod Options," (to the right of your image,) you will be able to give this a title and a bit of a description. (That way, people will be able to find your art on Google and also using this site's internal search engine...)

This good. I really like the colours and the detail! Better photographs would really show-off your work much better though... You need brighter lighting, (preferably indirect sunlight) and the photos would benefit from a little bit of cropping. Any simple photo editing software would do the trick. You don't need to spend any money on anything fancy. The one I use is called Ulead Photo Explorer. (Mine came free with a camera that I bought but I think you can also download a free trial version from Corel.com) You might also be interested in a couple articles on photographing your artwork, at: artfreaks.com/index.php/articles.html/_/top-tips-for-photographers/photographing-artwork
