If you ready my journal, you've probably seen that I'm really happy with the results of my latest shoot, which happened to be my first in way too long.



As a result, in my journal I jokingly suggested that people consider nominating your favorites for a DD with the appropriate gallery director such as ^arachnid15, ^opioid, ^Ghouldaddy, or ^Helewidis ... That got me thinking a bit more about how easy it is to forget to make suggestions regularly. It's not quite as easy as clicking the favorite button, so I think we neglect it.

I think it's important to remember that the GDs can't possibly find every amazing photo on the site by themselves, and rely on us to make suggestions.

If you love a photo, don't just hit that "Add Favorite" button. At the very least, add a comment, which just takes a second longer. If you think it's really astonishing, send a note to the gallery director nominating it for a DD. It really doesn't take that much longer, if you get in the habit.

I have had the honor of suggesting a few images that were selected as Daily Deviations. To see most of them all in one place, check out my Collection at [link] . Hopefully more of my suggestions will be picked up, and I can keep adding to that collection.



I was lucky. The Fetish GD ^opioid discovered my DD right when I uploaded it. Most people don't have that kind of lucky timing. Help them out by pointing out their works.



Thanks,
Ian X.
