Thinking about leaving DA

Hi Guys!

I don't know if you know it but DA lauched a portrait contest featuring Barnabas, a vampire played by Johnny Depp in Tim Burton's latest film, Dark Shadows.
The 10 semifinalists will be sent to Tim Burton himself. And he will chose de winner.

I make portraits and I'm a huge Burton fan... so I thought it could be a huge chance for me!
Unfortunately the contest is open to only US residents  :(

So I had to give up. It is really sad: I feel like my chance has been stolen just because I don't live in America.
And I guess we Europeans (and everyone else who's not from the US) are only good enough to pay for our membership there - and of course also for the movie tickets. I wonder why they don't do this in cooperation with all the international distribution partners. That way at least people from all the countries where the movie will be released could participate. Or does the movie only need advertising in the US? I'd rather doubt that... Just a little reminder: Alice in Wonderland made twice as much outside the US than on the domestic market!!! I'm utterly disgusted!!

Now they've selected the 10 semifinalists here: [link]

And............. there are a lot of digital drawings!
I know digital art takes skill, but we can't compare digital to traditionnal... they never should be in the same contest. It's not fair!!! Beeing a traditional artist, I feel insulted by this choice!

This contest is none-sense!!!

I'm VERY dispointed by DA. I don't feel like I'm part of this community anymore. I'm seriously considering leaving this website!
