GBGreat Photography Platform I have been a member of Viewbug for several years. Tons of contests with valuable prizes awarded. I am a bit disappointed to not have placed near the top in any contest over all these years, but it is a fun and encouraging platform for photographers of all skill levels.

GBVery unhappy member I have been a top 10% contributor for several years but I have decided not to renew my membership. When I joined it was all about gaining points and awards. I accumulated over 4 million points and then the points disappeared and we got "coins". The top prices/rewards needing 80,000 coins were bought straight away although the top person on the leaderboard had at the time only a quarter of that, so I don't know what happened there. I live in the UK and most of the rewards are only applicable to to people living in the US. This is apart from E-books which I find quite basic and of no use to me. I have raised the question as to what is happening with the points on several; occasions, but only ever received a glib answer. I also won a contest several months ago, but I have never received the prize which was a canon lens. I have asked when I will receive my prize time and time again via email, but to-date still haven't received an answer. I received a message on viewbug messages from Ollie who apparently is a co-founder, this was when my membership had lapsed. I have returned his message asking the questions above, but of course never received a reply. This is a sad state of affairs as I liked the camaraderie of the site. But enough is enough.

ITThe best photography site everanage a very lean site with… You manage a very lean site with quality images. The only comment I feel like making is that you enhance very beautiful images but which are often too modified by correction programs. I consider "photograph" the image that comes out of the camera with little modification. Many of the contest-winning images are visually striking but do not represent reality. They become "images" and are no longer "photos". I am a lover of Salgado's photography and therefore you understand well that I don't appreciate too much modified photos. You are still number one! Compliments.
