Do you have to be a VIP to post castings?

TLDR, I think I've largely come to the end of taking photos of people and I'm not finding as many excuses to be an annoying dick on the forums these days, so I'm thinking of downgrading my membership with a view to sneaking out the back door at some point. 


However, the hidden optimist in me is thinking I may chuck out one last casting for the holiday I've got booked in between now and Christmas - but do I remember correctly that you have to be a paying member to do that?

No, you can still post a casting as a free member.

Lenswonder said, 1728848500

I don't think so but you may have to be one to respond to a paid casting or post for a paid casting.

Perhaps it's changed and now it's as Crippen says.

Would be a shame if you left tbh, youre a tallented photographer, just saying :-)

Crippen said, 1728848619

Lenswonder may be correct. All I know is I posted one a few months ago, and it's still up on my page.

No you can still post castings, there are restrictions, one a week and one location, I think that's.

Free members can't place a casting requesting paid work. Castings offering payment or TF are fine.

Amazing, thanks.

Thanks all, 


I knew I remembered some kind of restrictions but couldn't remember them for the life of me.

Hah, thanks for the kind words. Barely a photographer these days though, averaging one a year and just not enjoying it. There comes a time for us all I guess. 

Plus, I'm more excited to get back into snooker than anything right now - just waiting for my new cue to bloody arrive... which isn't happening quickly thanks for Parcelfarce...

Ah, not a game I can play. I’m not bad at pool, but the tables are mahoosive in snooker, lol. Well, you can take a break (pun intended)—sometimes that rekindles the inspiration. but your work is really good :-)

I never claimed to be any good at it... I've been playing snooker on and off since before I could see over the table (my Grandad was an avid player), I've just never managed to beat mediocrity... same reason as you, bloody huge and crap eye sight!!! ;) 


Thanks, but any spare time on the weekends I spend with my daughter so I don't really have the time outside of holidays - and they'll be taken up by school breaks now. Writing is, sadly, on the wall.

Hope you continue to be an annoying dick for a while yet.

Thanks. I mean, I have a job to be a dick at, so it's not cold turkey. I may hang around for the forums, which I've been doing mostly now, but God knows I struggle with the time.

I just visited the British Club in Bangkok. They used to have a full sized snooker table. Now, it is two pool tables with blue felt. I was shocked. What next, they change the name to American Club?

One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble.
