Photo sharing services and communities

There are billions of photo sharing services and communities. I like to manage my own collection of beautiful photos from anime figures and that is why I joined websites like Flickr and MyFigureCollection. I also have a DeviantArt account, but that is not a specific website for photos.

MyFigureCollection is just like MyAnimeList, but instead it is meant for figures and merchandise. I’m also too lazy to create a list of my own figures on the website, but it is good for sharing images. The downside is the 2MB limit for image uploads. A lot of my photos are 3MB or larger after some Photoshop editing and saving this for “web and devices” is sometimes a boring thing to do.

I’ve been using Flickr and I really like the user experience of the website (way better than MyfigureCollection) and also the many groups of fanatic photographers I joined. A free Flickr account offers a 15MB filesizelimit, 300MB monthly photo upload and has some limitations to share images with groups. I’m not sure about NSFW photos, but it is a part of Yahoo, so I don’t think that they would appreciate nude images. Also, you can’t access the original file with a free account.

I couldn’t do photoshoot sessions outdoors, because of the cloudy weather here. I really wanted to take Ekidona (an Elf from the Queen’s blade anime) to a forest to shoot some amazing shots, but instead I stayed in my bedroom and did an erotic photoshoot with massage oil. Although I do like photos of bukkaked figurines….this is again not my cum, it is just oil!

These are some of my figurines. I have eight pvc figures so far, so I will post more amazing shoots of my collection soon. I’m also looking for fresh ideas, because the black background is getting boring. I do not use a DSLR and I only use natural sunlight and a little Photoshop on photos.

Image adjustments and filters I used in PS are saturation,curves(control+M),contrast and sometimes a little gaussian blur with reduced opacity on a separate layer. User Avaril advised me about the curves stuff and I must say that it is a very handy Photoshop feature for fast image adjustments. Thank you!

What do you think of the results? Advice and ideas would be appreciated in the comment section.
