Chrissie has completed a couple of general photography courses and now learns mainly by experimentation - currently by combining photography and digital art to learn new mixed media techniques, which allows her to get creative and break the rules. She has made many friends on this site and really enjoys the social interaction with fellow photographers and artists. She lives in Staffordshire, England with her husband, two dogs and two cats. She has a passion for photographing animals and nature and loves abstract art.

Unfortunately family and work commitments are going to be keeping me less active on the site for a while. I just wanted to say to anyone whose posts I usually review on a regular basis that I'll keep up as much as time allows!

Just heard that my entry 'Don't Mess With Me' of the Pit Bull Terrier came third in the 'Cats & Dogs' committee judged contest. A great start to the day for me!

Thanks so much to everyone who voted for my entry 'All The Colours Of The Rainbow' which came third in the digital composition of the month. I really appreciate your support.
BrooklynMyra : Now you know why I am a fan of yours!

BrooklynMyra : What is the purpose of posting photos every day? After two reviews, off they go. Do you use extra points to keep them on?
April 22 at 10:59AM
chrissie. : Do you know, I've only just noticed this message Myra. Nearly 2 months later. I should pay more attention to my profile page! I use posints that I've earned from reviewing to promote my work. I never just buy any (can't afford it lol) But I do an awful lot of reviewing to get the points! It's just something that I really enjoy.

Can anyone explain to me what a banner advertisement is or does? I've been 'rewarded' them from time to time for reviewing and added them to a pic. Then a few minutes later it'll say 'shown 600 of 600 times'. No idea what it's about. Can anyone enlighten me?! Thanks. Chrissie.
Badger : http://www.fanartreview.com/mycertificates.jsp should answer this question for you.

Echo7 : lol...it basically flashed your photo-thumbnail 500 times in the forum & such areas. Not sure how effective they are.
February 23 at 1:25PM
chrissie. : Thanks for the info guys.

NinaDd : Most mambers say they have NEVER sold a picture here.
February 24 at 9:22AM
Badger : I'm fairly well convinced that stuff fails to sell here chiefly because members rate their work too highly, take a look at other sites selling their members work and see what they charge. Most buyers don't want to put your picture on a wall, they are most often used for the interweb or hard copy magasene s
February 24 at 12:30PM
Badger : SAUSAGE FINGERS!!! or even magazines. Why pay what members ask when they can go to sites like shutterstock and get them for a few quid.
February 24 at 12:32PM
Echo7 : Ive been approached here 3 times by members asking about buying. But i directed them to my personal website & other sharing website...which is set up for selling. I will not burst my bubble & tell you the site. But if you want to know where i sell just send me a red private message =D

Sinbackkk : EXCUSE ME!!! Don't you mean "My" work...

ducilla : Clones!!!
February 25 at 11:28AM
chrissie. : Thanks so much for the info. The clues are there Echo lol - thanks again! Chrissie.

icnpictures : I do not think the banner advertisements are very helpful- you may get 1 or 2 reviews from one of them IF you are lucky and as for selling work I think it is hard to sell work where it is marketed mostly to other artists who can do the same things you/ I can. Just my thoughts :) Cindy B
February 27 at 8:55AM
the rhatzz : Ive reviewed a few works with this advertising so they work at least a little
