It's been an exiting and productive first week as photography GD and some major changes to the galleries and categories are being worked on to make submissions easier and more interesting for you, the community. One of the galleries that had my attention during the last week was the "Romantic Portraits" category.

Romance vs. Romanticism
It seems that most people associate romance with this category, rather than Romanticism. ( [link] ) As all the romance-portraits should rather go to "Emotive Portraits" and there are little correct submissions, the photography GD team decided to remove the category entirely.

Moving your deviations
Romantic Portraits is already locked for submissions and we will start moving all deviations soon. However, this is a manuel process and will take a lot of time. Please assist us in moving all your "Romantic Portraits" to the appropriate categories. Do not hesitate to contact one of the photography GDs if you need assistance.

If you have any suggestions concerning this topic please comment in my current journal, they are highly welcome. Don't forget to spread the word, so everyone's aware of the changes. Just link to this news article. Thanks.


Moving Guide

Move everything related to the topic ROMANCE to Emotive Portraits

Move everything related to ROMANTICISM to Conceptual or one of the other portrait categories you see fit (Classic Portraits may often apply here, as well as Expressive and even Fashion).
