Dear 50mm Lover,
Unfortunately our requests for the founder to help fix the group have fallen on deaf ears. To all intents and purpose he's left us and the group to fall apart.
I still cant fix this, even though I am a Co-Founder, and so I have made us a new home.
Please head over to
and join up.The submission rules are all the same, the only difference is that we now have staff who can vote and run the group. So hopefully you wont see any more of your submissions expire because there aren't enough admins to vote.
We can also hopefully get better critiques and competitions set up, now that we have control.
It's a sad day to say goodbye to #50mm-love, but we can make

a better place.
I look forward to seeing you all over in
We dont have enough voting admins and I dont have the power any more to make new ones (even though we have people who want to be admins).
So the few of us who are voting get swamped if the limits are more than they are at present, and then everyone complains that things expire.
You can also try posting to the different galleries. I think the overall limit is more than the limits on each gallery. It's like that because ~80% of submissions are to Portraits.
thanks for approval.
i'm glad that I join this group.
Thanks
Thomas
But really, rather than those bad votes, do look at the fact that you also had 2 positive votes
If you ever want to throw your work into the mix again, you're always welcome back. Try not to be knocked down so easily, you've got some good imagery going on in your gallery.
I may come back when my level will have hit another sphere as for the moment this was my best...
Thanks and keep going with the good work!
Cheers
