As an artist utilising photography as a medium, I now physically find myself seeking other galleries providing a proffessionalism and forum that are more in keeping with similar ethics and philosophy. Photography at the heart!

Sorry you feel this way, Andy. It would be a shame and a huge loss I feel if you were to leave. I think you should reconsider or at least wait and see what the response is to the posts made about the new style competition. I only use this site and flickr so don't know what any other forums are like but I do know you've built relationships with people here and it would be sad to say goodbye to that?
