The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

So I found this portfolio that was obviously doctored pictures and that is was really cheap and low, they aren't even good quality doctor jobs. So I rated him a 1. Here is what is happening because of it. LOL

Well the portfolio is suppose to be pictures of you or ones taken by you. This is clearly started in both the manual and on the page where you can edited your portfolio. When I looked at your portfolio it was very obvious that there might be 1 that was really you. The rest are a cut a paste jobs. I rated it a 1 because that is not what the portfolio is about.

Then make a statement in your portfolio that they are retouched and manipulated and I would be more than happy to come back and re-rate.

i know you dont no me but i cant even get off lurking now if i put what i do and why my pics are retouched i will have 2 leave vr. i try not 2 draw 2 much attention 2 me. thats why i used a shoot from one of the movies i was in that way it looks normal.





(I didn't save my last reply to him I wish I would have :-(( I basically told him if he was honest I would re-rate though)

Im not trying to be a bitch here,, but what is up with you giving ppl a low rating? Do you have something against Giavoni? He is a really awesome guy and deserves more then a 1 on his portfolio...

Isn't there a lot of ppl on this site that edit pictures of themselves? Isn't it just suppose to be for fun? Besides all that most his pictures are done professionally, he is a cover model and his pictures have been on the cover of many paranormal romance books. I would show that off to if that was me...

Thank you for clearing that up for me though, I will pass on the info to him so he will know..





(Again I didn't save my last reply, I wish I would have :-(( I told her basicaly the same as I told him.)

hey *smile*



i just wanted to know why you gave one of my members a 1 in his port and profile...



in my Coven .,..we do not believe in bombing ports or profiles and i hoped that in yours they did not either...



so i was hoping this could get straightened out between us rather than me doing it on a Master to Master basis



the member i am talking about is Giavoni....



thanks for your time....*smile*

I have no clue what anyone else in my coven rates. That is none of my business.



You are not the second person he has had contact me about this issue.



To me it is about honesty. Looking at them they are obviously doctored photos, and yet there is not statement to that fact. And yet per the manual and the page where you edit your portfolio there are only suppose to be photos taken by you or of you. These are obviously not. I have already told him twice that I would be more than willing to come back and re-rate if he adds some kind of comment about them being retouched and/or manipulated.



(tammy)

they are actually of him....



they are done by a professional photographer....





so he does not need to state anything...



but if you do not want to change the rating that is your choice...



but i will be letting your Master know about this low rate....



just as i am messaged if a member of my Coven rate low...



thank you for your time *Smile*

He actually has stated to me that they are not all undoctored.



I stand by my rating and am more than willing to re-rate if they are honestly represeted.



I rated his profile a 1 because he did the same to me. When he changed mine to a 9, I did the same to his profile.



Feel free to contact anyone you feel you need to. Ratings according to the manual are suppose to be all about how the person viewing the profile or portfolio feels that what is there represents the person that created it. In this case I honestly feel that it is not a true representation. Now if ratings are not about what the person viewing it thinks why is there even a rating system? If what the manual says is not true please let me know and I will go change all of my ratings to what ever the person actually wants. But if the manual is actually correct I stand by my rating.
