Hi John,
I think there's a bit of a misunderstanding with how the gallery operates. First, let me assure you that FSM has always been and still is very open to displaying our readers' models. We enjoy seeing your work, and we publish what we can in the magazine and put the rest in our online gallery every month.
Second, not one of my models is in the online gallery. In fact, no staff member's model is in the online gallery--that honor is reserved for readers alone.
If you click on one of the thumbnail images in the online gallery, you'll see the name of the modeler, where he or she is from, and a short description of the model. Because of how the community software works, my name appears as the person who uploaded the image to the site. If one of the other staffers did it, their name would appear, and in fact did appear before I took over the task two years ago.
I'm sorry for the confusion, and I hope that you'll continue to read FSM, visit the website, and participate in the Forum. If you have any other questions, please feel free to call me at 262-796-8776 ext. 230, or send me an email.
Best,
Tim
