    On A Site Im Premium Membership I Will Not Divulge The Name But People May Know This Its Quite A Popular Site And For $3.50 They Get Kinda Like Alot Of Stuff For Premium Member Ship. I Kind Of Think That Gamerenders Do Not Give Alot For Premium/Donator Membership. Compared to the other site you give like 2 premium member sections. When i think premium members deserve more for $5.00. This is just my say because i have recently been on my brothers Premium Member account and to say i thought it was really rodoculous of what he payed for. I am totally not critisinsing gamerenders. I'm just trying to put my opion across there is a screenshot below to just to show my discomfort about buying premium membership. Sorry if i have caused people not to buy it here.

    Look how many posts are in the premium renders forum on Gamerenders, then look how many there are on your site.

    Consider the ammount of renders done daily here, and the wide selection, a majority of which are Premium. The rules without a premium is something like 60 posts that month to enter, but a Premium gets rid of it...

    Also, You can purchase a membership for about 600-700 credits which is equivelant to about $3.50. The skill level that GR has, and its community size would also raise the price. Im not sure of the site you're on with that membership, but im only assuming its not as popular as GR.

    Yea, but ALL that for a whopping $5.00. Who would pay $5 for ALL THAT? Crazy people.

    Your making it sound like having more premium member forums will make the membership a lot better. Its the quality of these sections and their activity that counts, not the quantity of forums.

    There's no advantage in having 20 inactive Premium Member forums over having 2 active ones - you'll end up with about the same number of topics overall.

    And as people have been saying, the Premium Member resource forums are regulary updated with new content posted by members. If you go to a less active forum, the resources you get will be updated less as well so your money will be less well spent.

    And finally, do you really think that paying $5 once off is a bad deal for what you get? What proportion of your lifetime income is $5?

    Digital Concepts isn't nearly as active as GameRenders so it's only natural for it to offer what seems to be more stuff to it's premium members so that it can get more members

    don't get me wrong, DC is a great site(member #1,241) but it's no GR

    I'm not trying to get flamed of be offencive to GR in any since but I stoped posting here because everyone (or lots) think they are better then everyone and can treat others like crap the only time I ever come here anymore well hardly ever... Once again please don't flame. Small communitys are better imo because its more homely and more people know each other. Once again I'm not trying to offend and don't want to get flamed I'm intitle to my say.

    I agree, and disagree... Smaller communities can be more "homely", but if you look at the people on GR, people have a good knowledge of others. The size doesnt effect the "togetherness" of most people, theres a lot of "teams" coming out, and the pros are releasing constant tutorials.... overall its just a great place to learn.

    If you're good, and you know it, there is nothing wrong with being a little arogant. It takes time to get good, and being bothered by people not as good as you takes your time away... Also, you rarely see a professional sports player just "hang" with an average joe on the streets, and that reflects the graphics community in a way.

    My main thought about buying my Premium Membership is: Giving GameRenders something back. I spend so much time on Game Renders, and it's totally free! I saw that they had trouble with hosting, and with my prem membership i help them out a tiny little bit. Always a nice feeling to help contributing the GR

    $5 is worth it. $25 is worth it. Don't complain about this, I mean, let people decide for themselves if they want to pay or not.

    But I just want to say: From the beginning I paid $25 till now: I don't have a single regret. People give free .psds, Tutorials they only post there and not in the public one, free art en many many more.

    How can YOU decide if its not worthy if YOU didn't payed $5. You have no single idea what you can find in the Premium Section.



    Amen to that
