“Definitely a good idea”

The idea of this website is good. The navigation isn't that hard, one click is enough to go ahead and scroll through other peoples work, however, the way the system works just bothers me, since I don't feel completely free actually rating somebody's work. Overall, the idea is really great and I think it's fantastic to have a website where creators and artists can share their work with each other, but I do believe it needs more work and polishing.

“IDK”

Its a good idea and all but im so annoyed how the point system works. Plus some people just cant write normal reviews about a photo. I had someone who commented on one of my other comments on A DIFFERENT PHOTO. I think I might be deleting my account soon its just not for me.

It's a place where you are supposed to critique peoples art and photography and rate it so they can win "cash" which is actually credit so they can promote their work and get more views-If you do post a critique you are going to get harangued by their fan club-one woman who took snapshots of birds that any one could take was always at the top of the list-that's not all at the time I was a member there was a gand of pub crawler thugs who would team up on people and try to intimidate them and get them to quit so the leader of the pack could win his contests-when this was pointed out to the management they sided with the bullies-those member dollars speak loudly-I managed to FAIRLY beat him out in a digital art contest and then I was the target of even more bullying and vile hate messages so I got out of there-its a vanity site, pay for position hoax-save your money for art supplies or post your work on a free portfolio site-even art groups on Facebook are better than this outfit

I have found it to be the best place for creativity and mastering one's craft. In a short period of time, I have learned more on this site, than I had in my entire lifetime. It is filled with warmth, brilliant and talented members lend a hand, teach you to be your best, while themselves providing fabulous art and photography. The staff is exceptionally helpful with everything It's great for anyone interested in art or photography for hobby or professional purposes to help them reach the top of their game.

Like so many of the artists and photographers on this site, I have found the community to be a great source of encouragement and mentoring. The site members have shown me new possibilities and the reviewers have exhibited honest and caring interest in helping me to improve my skills. I enjoy the contests. It's easy to sell your work (just include a price and other details). Getting started and learning the way the site works takes a little time but the support staff is always very helpful when I have a question.

This is a review site, but if you give someone negative feedback they complain about you to the "Management" and they side with the person that is getting the negative feedback, rather than the person that is giving the feedback. There are a LOT of amateur photographers that just want their egos boosted with comments like "Great photo" and "Wow!" when the photos that they are actually posting are shockingly bad. Don't get me wrong, I don't attack someone's photo and just say the negative things about it, I try to find something good about it and say that too, as if we just slated people's rubbish work they would not improve and give up. I agree with what people have said as well about having to pay to get your photos near the top of the chart all the time, which is really just a popularity competition with the people that do this all the time. There are paid competitions where you can win cash, but this will never happen if you don't spend stupid amounts of cash creeping to the other members photos and making yourself look good. I know that as I had a few complaints against me to the "Management" that my photos in the competitions where you can win cash that they judge, instantly get dismissed. I'm not being bitter, but the ones that win this are the ones that line their pockets with cash and just give positive feedback. I've just jumped ship after a little while of being on there, and I will not look back. I just hope that people read this review and steer clear of the site and don't put yourself through the hassle and grief.

I love it. Sharing my photography - well at first I was very nervous. What do I know about photography? I can tell you when I first joined I knew very little! But I thought it would be fun to enter the photo contests and thought I had some pretty good shots. I was nervous but posting but I am so glad i did! The people that are part of Fanartreview are really wonderful. Just a terrific group of people. The feedback I received was very supportive. I'm so glad I joined. If you are nervous - don't be. I enjoy the challenges of the contests. Love meeting new people. It's a great place for photographers and artists of all types.

I enjoy sharing my photos here. I highly recommend it. When you post something it usually takes about ten minutes to get feedback. The same is true for contests. I enter the contests for cash prizes and even if I don't win I enjoy the feedback. It's a brilliant site with a wonderful community. Very supportive and has helped me improve.

I joined for the contest but stayed for the wonderful people I've met here. The feedback I receive on my photography is very helpful. The contests are fun and often encourage me to try something I normally would not do. The people though are wonderful. It's great to get input on my photography from experienced photographers. Highly recommended.

If you enjoy photography or art you'll love this site. I enjoy sharing my photography. But I also enjoy the artwork posted. The reviewers are friendly and helpful. The photo contests give me a chance at a cash prize every week. I highly recommend it.

The site is fun, easy to use, and the contests are terrific. I'm very new to photography. I take photos with my iPhone. It's so nice to see how well my photos are doing in every category. The review system is great. When I share a photo I get feedback from other photographers. I found here quite a few persons willing to help me. I can see from one glimpse everything I need, there is always so much to explore and I have never been bored being here. The contests offer challenges and I am trying new things such as using light to improve my shots. The site is easy to use and I like that the site has members that are new to photography like me.

I joined this site and THEN I found out that it was "pay to play" all the way! Some of the most TERRIBLE art makes it to the top of the ladder simply because people are paying for more "views" of their art and the more your pay, the more you get seen, the more chances at votes you get. So unless you are rich and you don't care about the TRUE merit of your work, AVOID JOINING THIS SITE.
