Wow, what an overwhelming response. Thank you all sooooooooo much for all the support -- you're the best!

I've decided that the friendships I have here far outweigh the frustrations, and I'm not going anywhere. In some ways this will be a Good Thing, as I'll have more time to work on other projects which have been starved for time. Who knows, after a few months of laying low, I might start submitting sets again anyway (assuming anyone will still shoot with me ). I haven't received any official response to my requests for information on how I can improve or how I might "requalify", but I have had some indications that it was more political (for lack of a better term) than technical and that if I lay low for a bit it might all blow over -- assuming I don't do anything (more) stupid in the mean time. I do seem to be good at unintentionally putting my foot in it. I do have to reiterate, though, that Napalm (photography coordinator) and Rigel (former ( ) model coordinator) have been wonderful to work with all through this -- go show them some lovin'! If it were'n't for the two of them, I wouldn't be inclined to try again (even as much as I love you all), but they have put a friendly face on the whole deal.

I'll post more later -- right now I'm too sleepy.
