One I did early on

Thanks John, due to your multi postings my drawing is on the edge of the first page already. Please read the guidelines to how many paintings to be posted at one time, and it is not 8

Sorry Glennis did not know there was a limit - thought I would try something different to show the progress of a painting - I won't put any more on for a while - I have hundreds Once again sorry for that

Agreed, well said Glennis, I am afraid it doesn't matter how good your scammell truck drawings are John posting 8 of them in one day is anything but good!!! 4 is the most and if you took the time to look around the website a little you would realise that most people don't post anything like that many even, 1 or 2 at most, otherwise you just annoy everyone and won't get any comments on your work and those of us who have posted work before yours get shoved of the front page and so don't get seen or commented on either!

Once again sorry if I've upset anyone - have deleted most of them - as I said I thought I would show some thing different - won't try that again

It is interesting to see how paintings develop; and it's quite easy to miss the guidelines if you're new to the site - and frankly, it does make a bit of a difference to me if the work is good, which this is: my problem lies with those who just aren't very good but swamp us with 10 or 20 images - although I realize that this involves subjective judgements. On the whole, it's always a good idea to take a good look at any site for a period of weeks, and work out what the general etiquette is. So John, don't feel badly about it - it's just that it's generally in your interests as well as everyone else's to limit postings, because we're that much more likely to want to look at them if you do. Just stagger things a bit - or maybe start a blog, eg on blogger; then you can refer people to your step by step work on your own site if they're interested to see how the work develops: as I certainly am. Do that, and I'll subscribe to it - I've got a step by step on my own blog at www.wightpaint.blogspot.co.uk at the moment; join me there as a follower so I can link to your blog if you start one, and we can discuss the perils of posting a step by step demo if you haven't actually finished the painting when you start posting: risky, but fun. All the best: don't be put off!

Thank you for that Robert -I have only just started on here and did not know that my port folio went on the main page I thought it just stayed on mine only - good start - been on it five minutes and already upset people - will join you on your blog cheers
