Money Hungry
I use to LOVE Viewbug. That's why I got a pro subscription while I had the money. I knew in advance It would be a one time thing and I wanted to give them time to make sure it was cancelled. So, I cancelled 5 MONTHS AGO and got the confirmation email that they had cancelled it. But low and behold this morning I got an email saying UNSUCCESSFUL PAYMENT! THEY TRIED CHARGING ME AGAIN! Not only that, they sent the unsuccessful payment to my Gmail which has a free Viewbug account instead of my Hotmail which has the paid account attached. And it wasn't an actual email from viewbug, it was from their payment provider. So if I hadn't seen that, I would have been charged and seen it too late to get my money back. Viewbug, you better rectify this. Unacceptable.

I am an amateur picture taker
I am an amateur picture taker. However, the folks at Viebug have been more that welcoming. I love the participation with all the members of the group. Everyone is very kind and will help you with questions you may have. It is fun to get recognized for something they have submitted. I would highly recommend becoming a member of this group.

Viewbuh has been one of the smoothest platforms I’ve used for submitting my work. The interface is simple, the upload process is fast, and the overall experience feels very creator-friendly. What I appreciate most is how thoughtfully they showcase each finalist’s work — it feels personal and respectful to the artist behind the image.

It is great being able to have others look at and comment on your photographs as it is always good to get others feedback.
Very Limited Features
Viewbug has some creative programs to help motivate their users, but the platform has not changed much over the last decade and is lacking a lot of very important features that they have refuse to implement over the last many years. I have spoken to them about this numerous times. Such as image size limitation and lack of organizing your photos into categories, so I have refused them of a paid membership. I have been a paid Core member of Devian Art for well over a decade and a half, as they do have the features that we need and are constantly improving their platform. Stagnation = death.
