I have now found that your "top active member" section is rigged for one and only one member to stay on top.

Should anyone wish to know what's going on, please privately email me. I warn you to keep track of the points you are being awarded each day.

My advice is to find another site that treats all members fairly.

The best art site I have found is Fine Art America (.com). There is an annual fee of $50. Post as many as you want; they offer honest and true service. Your account balance is paid monthly on the 15th of each month...no complaining without response from the site, like this one. It is the best site and has many more benefits and buyers to purchase any type of reproductions and surfaces, and you set your own prices for a better return for your work. They print your images in many more ways to make money and treat all members in the same ethical manner. They also have an ongoing art contest every week and entertain other businesses that will pay a royalty to use your artwork for advertising, movie props, etc. They are very active in the best interest of the artist. You will also get a second website (Pixels.com) free with the same benefits. You cannot beat $ 50.00 a year for all the benefits offered. Check it out, you won't be disappointed....and you get your earnings very quickly without having to send numerous requests and beg for them to send you your funds.

This site is owned by Art Slam..... Google it.

Original Post: Top active members

I find that your system calculations for the daily top active members need to be examined. I have been keeping track of my postings, and on numerous occasions, it is in error. When this happens, from what I post of new paintings, comments, responses, art duels, etc your system restricts the fair count. As of yesterday, I posted 5 new paintings, I made 7 comments, and over 100 art duel votes. From my posted paintings, this does not include the various artist groups in which these paintings were posted in. For all this, which my summary said I should have received well over 600 points, your system awarded my account 291 points. Could you please explain this vast difference to me ? I might add, this is not the first time this has occurred.
