I'm writting this blog to say that I'm going to stop my sets with SG. I'm really tired. I see that the community and staff are not interested in my work. I have some sets with more than 1000 comments and 97/98% loved. And so many of them are well commented in The Council. Really I don't understand what's happening.
All my girls are really tired to work for the webpage. All the classic SG's I was thinking to shoot again after so many years... are not interested because they don't like the webpage selection system. It's like we're sending sets for free.
The spanish community is tired too. Really the community is dead. The spanish SG's really dissapeared.
I'm so sad cause I love to shoot for SG. I was shooting for the webpage from 2007.
The SG spirit we lived in those years was amazing. Doing parties... all the people in Barcelona knew what was the SG movement. It was a brilliant days. But now I feel all is dead. And I think if I stop to shoot for SG... really SG Spain will dead. Believe me, I was trying and trying to make more new girls for the website... but it's impossible to sell sets in this moment. I don't feel inspirated making new sets. Sometimes I feel I'm wasting my time making sets for free. And the girls are in my same boat.
By the way, I want to thank all the people who support my work. You're awesome. I'll be here to answer all your question and to show you my personal works. Now I'm retouching my last sets. But in January I'll stop to shoot SG sets.
Thank you very much for sure. If you want to check and give some love to my girls in MR just click here!. They deserve it. Believe me... they're an amazing girls.
That's all folks. Forever yours.
Ivy.

I totally understand you,,, it's so sad to see beautiful girls and a great photographer like you not being supported by the staff. The community is cool and supporting but not the staff though... it seems they've a few faves and only those get to the FP 
It's really sad to see you go... and to see how the spanish community is so much smaller... I too am here since 2007 and I remember so many SGs from Spain.
I'm sad.

So sorry to hear that, but you're right, there are a lot of girls who are tired of this situation, also the italian community have lost lot of its members for the same reasons...

This is so sad to hear. I am a massive fan of your work, it's all so gorgeous.
I hope that you will change your mind one day, but if you don't, I wish you a happy time shooting for other things!

I just discovered your work and you'll soon disappear from SG . But I understand your choice. I LOVE your work and the girls you took pictures of. I don't understand why the staff don't buy your sets, such a shame, for you, and for them.
I know the feeling seeing a community fading away, as it's the case for the spannish one. I really do. And I'm feeling sorry and angry about that at the same time, because it's just unfair for all of you .
Well... Hope to see your work somewhere else than SG if you really decide to stop being here, because I'd be very interested in travelling to Spain only to meet you 
. I mean it.

D: que triste, en méxico (y apuesto que en muchísimos lados) somos mega fans de tu trabajo pero no eres l primera persona que se queja de esto... supongo que todo tiene su ciclo y aunque se sienta feo tal vez ya sea hora de cerrar este :'(

Noooo! desde que entré en la página que he deseado hacer un set contigo y ahora leo esto realmente tenía la certeza de que si lo hacía contigo me convertiría en SG.. pero ya veo que está difícil para todos/a, me entristece mucho..
