You are limited to a certain amount of free postings per day and I think that is 5 I think there might even be a size limitation but do not quote me on that part
If you purchase a Premier Artist package, you can then post up to 15 images per day and are allowed certain perks This is the $35 you are replying to.
BUT it's not MANDATORY
To Management
We need some sort of Members Mandate posted so these questions do not crop up.. I know there must be a lo9t of stuff happening behind the scenes. but the occasional posting by management are few and far between..
Members need to know what they can and cannot do and a link to where this is at. Is it too much to ask.
Hell I am not even part of the staff and I still get PM asking me what to do and to look into things and that should not be up to me.
There needs to be Gallery and forum Moderators. Stuff like reporting issues work to a point and then when you see a do you really want to do this and that, and click OK or YES you get a 404 error page and then have to use the [email protected] option..
It's been almost two years since Andrews passing and there is no more Doc Legume around anymore and all I am saying is get some interim people to run point and report to you and let the members know who it is because I am tired of being Mr Answer man on the PM circuit

Shadoman,
Thank you for all the support you have provided in the past. You are correct in that we have lost both Andrew and Doc Legume in the last two years and that has made things very difficult from a support stand point. The support team that is still operating CGBytes and all of it's affiliates, (Renderotica & Renderotique) have been working to the best of their ability to continue to maintain a level of support to all of the customers. We sometimes miss things and appreciate when a member can step in and direct us to the issue at hand. We do not expect our members to be the support department for us and ask that anyone who is asked a question in PM that needs an official response, direct them to the support department. We have the Contact Us form where the entire support team gets a copy of this so that we can reply as timely as possible. In this particular case, this happened over the weekend and our Support hours, as listed on the Contact Us form page, are Monday to Friday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM CST. In most cases someone is around that can answer concerns, but these are the hours that we are working.
We have a new Content Moderator that is monitoring the [email protected] emails so if someone sees an image in the gallery that is of concern, click on the Report Abuse link and enter a short description of what the abuse is and submit it. That will send an email to the Content Moderator and they will review the report on a daily basis.
As for reporting abuse in the forums, I'm unsure as to why you are receiving a 404 error screen when it has worked any time I attempt to use it from either my admin account or from my general member test account. We have also received abuse reports from other members via the forum. I can have our programmers take a look at it but if I can't replicate the error, it will be difficult to determine why you are getting the error screen.
All of these issues and questions ARE answered on the website. We have a Help menu in the Top Navigation bar that has FAQs for the site, Gallery, How to get Product support, Points Program FAQs, etc...That page can be found here. The Terms of Service, Gallery posting guidelines, Links policy all can be found in the Help menu. If anyone has a question, after reading through this section, they can contact us through the Contact Us form, linked above and we can then provide support.

Look i do not mean any disrespect here, But the average members never look at the forums and the Newbs find it hard to navigate so they only hit the forums when they have a problem
Maybe a sticky note link on every webpage with a link to the place you mentioned might be a big help to the newbs
Lets face it, in the past many of us were used to a huge networks of Moderators for the galleries and forums and 90@ of the time they caught the TOS violations and forum flames before that got to hot and cooled everything down.
That seems to be all gone now. We have no Doc Legume who would get a copyright violation report and Bam our Local sherif went to town and kicked Butt.
I got a PM awhile back that something was in the works to assist the vendors and comic artist in combating copyright infringement. Still waiting on that one.
Now in regards to the forum error.
Someone posted some images of Gene Enegs work, Enegs was a master illustrator of BDSM art long before Robert Bishops art became the norm for high quality. This stuff might be public domain but we are a site devoted to respecting copyright laws and I reported it using the Report tab in the forums
I posted my reason why and upon clicking submit I was give a Yes / No tab if I want to continue and I click the yes tab and was sent to a 404 error page. What I think happens was the Eneg illustration was wider than what the forum usually allows for an attached image and these types of images have caused some forum mishaps in the past.
So with that said Maybe it was because of the size of the art that was beyond forum allowances that reporting the image may have caused the 404 error page and why I had to use the [email protected] option
I suggest you try this out using an extra wide image that goes beyond forum allowances and see if you get the same 404 error message I did.
With that said
I get a PM for help I will use the contact us option and any problems I will tell the person who PM me to use the abuse @ option.
I don't want any trouble or need any.. I was just trying to help and it must have sufficed because it was allowed in a moderators forum to continue
That will cease as of today.. I just want to post my art, sell my comics and that is about it..
