Is it my Internet not loading or is this the actual image of the printed model?
I’m pretty sure we’re all seeing the same 90’s era quality photo going on.
What happened?! Did your photos invent time travel and get stuck in the past?! Did you spend all your money on filament and had to use your kid’s preskool camera?! Did your photos get robbed of their pixels on their way to the server??!

That is it. The import and conversion of the photos has been downgrading the quality and size of the picture. I didn’t think it was an issue as you can tell it was printed, not rendered. I am no photographer and wife says I take the worst pictures anyway. I will look at getting better pictures going forward…
BUT the fact these pictures were deemed good 4 times by reviews and then still taken down is ridiculous.
I will add that this spawned off an issue I had early on with importing pictures here on Makerworld. They were “too big” to be posted. I believe I have it converting to Web JPG image and drops it down to 50.0K or there about to not be to big for their system…
Honestly, it’s difficult to determine if this image is a render or not due to its poor quality. Without casting any accusations, it’s plausible that this could be a tactic to camouflage the true nature of the image. Such an effect could easily be achieved in Photoshop in about 5 minutes, resulting in a seemingly low-quality output.
This critique isn’t about your photography skills per se. I’m confident that if you were to upload photos with a higher resolution and better quality, these issues would be mitigated. The upload limit of 30MB per piece should suffice for most needs, so I’m uncertain why anyone would encounter difficulties in this regard.
Absolutely, this explanation should have been provided right from the start.

Set your camera so that it outputs a jpg file immediately, then you don’t need to convert, which camera do you use that outputs a jpg file over 30mb in size? Or do you always take the raw files and convert them yourself?

Seeing the context of your pictures helps a lot.
There are some users who just do a crude photoshop of a render on a background, then make it low-res to try to fake having a real image.
Your real images look a lot like these fake images.
You would do yourself a service making the first image of a profile one of these real pics too, instead of four renders then your real.

I will work to put higher quality pictures of the physical print going forward. Didn’t think that would be the issue as it wasn’t mentioned ever, but lesson learned. Gonna have to reprint some of these as I gave them to the grandkids to hand out at school. Hopefully more don’t get taken down in the mean time LOL.

Had kinda the same problem lol:)
Learned it the hard way now after they took down the design or print profile, they also took away any rewards that it had gained…
I was over negative 3k in points and just this week i’m back in the green lol 
Thank god some of my designs that were online gained me enough downloads to get me back in the green.
Haven’t upload anything since they deleted over 50% of the uploads
These weren’t new uploads, some of them had photos of the print on the print profile.The community guidelines do not reflect this new policy.
do you really believe people will think those are actual printed models ? almost all your models are renders from blender my friend, I can tell and experts in rendering or photoshop could tell also. the quality of the image is one thing. but the way the images are render is another and people can tell this. Sadly I dont believe that the models you are posting are actually printed.

PRINT3DGIFTS | Published - MakerWorld is this you ? you need to make significant model changes in the remix… I had same issue before with a guy and you need to make more then just a small change on the models that you claim to have remixed. adding a hole in a model or just sizing it up or down is not a significant change in the remix

No, they are not printed, they are screenshots of Hueforge. They were also ALL put up well before Makerspace put in place the rule that a picture of the printed picture is required. If you can take a breath and calm down a moment, you will be able to see that all the models and profiles put up after the change in the rules DO include a picture of the printed item. And yes, I have started putting that picture as the cover so Self Declared Print Police don’t even have to go into the models page to see it.
I have had them reviewed numerous times, my point collection checked each week as well so makerworld is on it and doesn’t need your help. Thanks for sharing your thoughts… I knew there was some hater trying to report everything of mine and i can now put a name to Him.
makes sense yeah I know that they changed the rules I think but in the mean time I believe you need actual pictures but yeah I feel you its a lot of work. hopefully youll be able to get it fixed, thats a lot of work. :o
Thank you for your cooperation sir. You’re free to move it along
