This site has one thing only going for it... good members. As for a site it is shocking, and they say the words you want to hear, but care not at all for it's members, they just want to make money. DON'T JOIN. I was in contact with many members, that had said it needs change, and they had been telling VB for 3 years, and nothing had been done. Yes they may offer 150 dollars but that is broken up for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, which is lousy money prize. They have got others to join them now, and have a 10,000 contest. HOWEVER... what crap it is, for it is said in the rules it is open for all world wide, BUT you must have a address to send prizes to in the U.S. and that they might charge you taxes... WHAT CRAP. This clearly shows a non professional approach for a site to say that. "You must have U. S address, and taxes can be charged. Face the facts, they say to have a U. S address, so they don't have to pay for postage and shipping, but for the winner to have to pay it. I confronted them about it, and their answer was. "it has nothing to do with us". Seriously people, yes the members are nice people, but as for the site it's self... STAY AWAY FROM IT. It isn't worth the joining fee, their prizes are extreamly poor quality, the continually lie to their members, and think of nothing but making more money for themselves. I have asked them to make thing better, given them ideas, told them how to be a fantastic site etc... and all i get is, "they will look into it" Their contests also run for like four months at a time, and IF you win, you might get like 40-50 dollars for first place... BIG DEAL!. If you really want to be informed properly and truthfully about two sites NEVER TO JOIN... View bug is definitely one, and the other is Fan art review. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HEAR ME when i say DON'T JOIN, DON'T JOIN, DON'T JOIN. Also if you question them about their methods in contests or anything to do with the site, they will reply is sweet talking you, and saying how special your are, makes you sick. Every time i confronted them, funny but i would then have one of my photos picked by a viewbug judge/staff member etc... funny that. Save you money. They even state, they are the "number one site" what aload of crap... they offer nothing, and take all. Also to prove what i say is true, look at the comments here with 4 and 5 stars, they all mention the good members, just what i said. However not much being said about the actual site... the contests, the staff in a positive way... is there?. So please just remember my two words to you... DON'T JOIN.
