Looks great Martin!  The tiny adjustments really gave the scene better framing and focus on the big tree.

Thanks guys :D I'm glad you like it!

Unfortunately they don't @ CGSociety:

My last two gallery-submissions were declined for no clear reason.
They gave a set of reasons like too many submissions (something like that), does not fit in this section, does not meet quality-standard etc.
I may pick one of those reasons myself apparently, because they don't seem to respond to questions regarding this.

Could one of the reasons "too much strict advertisement relationship " with E-on ?.
I don't like conspiracy theories so much , but your images could go in any top best gallery very easily !
I would like to say they are too big and some problems could be related to this..yada yada...
But they look more like wiseacre , greedy and sordid !
Especially if the images aren't made with Autodesk or with the other advertisers software !

Well, honestly these are also my suspicions. On the other hand though, Planetside also advertised there, though less often.
So to blame it on that?
I remember how tough it was to get "Terragen" as an option to choose the software you have used to create your submission.
Can't remember who achieved it, but he had to go through quite some lengths.
There's no way of knowing/finding this out.

For my own sanity I tell myself that I should wait a while and then re-submit?

If the user base and the images who are submitted gets bigger and more they couldn't ignore them.
Wishful thinking of course !

Don't give up Martin  :)

Mmm, my last one was rejected too at CGTalk - I just checked, and the last image that even included an element from TG2 (the sky) was Olivier Vernay-Kim's by now well-known "Heading South", submitted on 13 June.

One can read too much into these things - it could just be one person who doesn't like TG2 images, and the submitters have been unlucky that he's been adjudicating each time. Or perhaps there is still the prejudice that TG2 is just "Open and render", with no skill involved. Anyway, it's a shame if there is such a bias - and it could prove commercially damaging to Planetside, which is even more of a shame.

There are some moderator problems related to Lightwave too ! Old users of Lightwave know this problem.
Because of this they don't post much there . If it wasn't for  Roberto Ortiz (Forum moderator of Lightwave forum section)
there wouldn't any Lightwave related things too there .

Anyway ; to say something with substance about this is not easy unfortunately , but they do not many positive things :-\
