I have no issues with free members having a small limit on the images that they can post however, for models it does put a degree of pressure on them to select their 'best' images and these don't necessarily, represent the 'real' them.



Would there be any mileage in allowing a separate allocation of, say, three images per model in addition to their standard six that could be used only for 'doctor' shots of head, three-quarter profile and full-length.



I can appreciate that there would be the potential for abuse as some models might try and slip other images into these slots but they could face the risk of losing a couple of their six if they don't behave.



Lots of photographers appreciate seeing a blank canvas and it's a trick that none of the other sites have realised so far (I think).

That's not really the point I was trying to make.  Mine is market-sensitive and takes into account the fact that most models do not pay for accounts on this or the other sites.

 

Whilst I am sure the owners would applaud your route it isn't likely to happen and, in the meantime, photographers don't, very often, get an opportunity to see the 'real' model.



This initiative can be seen as adding value to the site and increasing its appeal.  I am doubtful that it would adversely impact site income but anything that increases site useability is likely to bring in more revenue.
