One Model Place website

This is actually almost the same blog as one I just posted on my photography blog minus the pictures. It's a rant of sort, so thought it was appropriate to post here too.

Once upon a time I had a OneModelPlace.com profile. I stopped paying for a membership years ago because I was never getting any work out of the website. Recently I tried to recreate a profile on the website. When I went through the whole sign-up process it said, “welcome back” so, evidently it never deleted my information. Anyway, I put all the new information in and a good variety of images, most, believe it or not, were not nude. The ones that were nude, minus one, did not show full frontal.

A day later I received an e-mail from OMP.
Dear Eddie, We are sorry to inform you that your profile was not approved. Under new ownership, OMP is changing to a more fashion oriented website. As a result, we have become more selective and are only approving a small percentage of nude photographers. Your credit card has been refunded.

Just like that I was banned. Here is what I wrote back, with, by the way, no response.
Dear OMP, It is extremely pathetic that you have not approved my profile. You could of at least given me the opportunity to change my images and etc. to meet with your new criteria. I have tried to create, unsuccessfully, a new profile under two different names and two different credit cards but your website will not allow me to do so. You have evidently blocked me. Please remove this block so that I can create a profile that is designed more toward the "fashion" or non nude portion of my work. 

Needless to say, I am still pissed. I even spent half a day going through all my old files, at least the ones I still had and pulled out all the clothed / non-nude images, and edited them just to have several images to choose from when I tried to reestablish an OMP profile. Most of my old work has a lot of clothed images so it wasn’t too hard to find appropriate photos to work with. Well, with all that work and no place to post the images, I decided I would do so on my photography blog. I’ve been getting a lot of complaints that I only do full frontal nudes and of course, my photography blog shows mostly my erotic work, so time for a change. Sorry.
