Please let us know about your recent FAA milestones. If its 100 views, 100 artworks posted or 100 comments on a great work of art.
Its good to have milestones and to celebrate them knowing that all the hard work and late nights it took you to get from A to B with positive results.
I'm glad to be part of FAA and I would like to celebrate everyones growth on FAA.
My recent milestone which encouraged this post is reaching my first 10 000 views. Its been just over a year and although views don't say much becuase many can be artificial. I.E. looking at your own art. I'm still glad to celebrate this milestone on FAA. Thank you all for the comments and for this great platform. Nothing like it.

Thanks JC, I'm glad you like the idea. It could be quite fun to see what people post.
Wow 2500, that is amazing. So many images. I'm sure it took a while to get there.
I love how the internet is constantly evolving and how we as artists are a part of it. We evolve and FAA is constantly evolving by adding more and more features etc. Its really great.
We are collectively part of a very dynamic work of human art. :) This collective social art sharing site is in itself a work of modern social art.
FAA is a milestone in human social artistic interaction.

I turned 50 years old today and I feel like it. Real milestone for me with all the medical problems I've had over the years.

Wow Sharon your collection is unstoppable. A steamroller that will squash us all. Well done. Nice work from the little I just looked at.

On July 4th I Celebrated my 6th year at Fine Art America.
Since joining in 2009, although I got a slow start and some paychecks have been quite small I have only missed a total of 8 - FAA paydays.
Very happy to still be here ( and to still be on the planet ). I have truly enjoyed my experiences and what I have learned from the many talented people here.

I like milestones, too, even if I don't know they are such until I arrive at them :)
In the past 2-3 months, I have had a number of firsts: European sale, repeat customer, review posted (that I know about), phone cover sale, and throw pillow sale. I have also had my first return and my first cancelled order (which was re-ordered a day later but differently) and it's good to have those under my belt :)
Two I'm trying to get to right now are 100,000 visitors (you can ignore your own IP address, Michael - option is at top of Visitors count page) and 1500 images. I'm at at 92,000 and 1374.

Paid all monthly bills (including 2 mortgages) with FAA after tax money, and still had enough to put some in the bank. Now the next month it didn't happen, but if I did it once....I can do it again!

I've been here a bit over 2 years,.... and have gotten about 25 or so sales on prints and greeting cards from buyers browsing.
I'm my own best customer,...having purchased 32 prints and 295 greeting cards.
Am not at a break even point yet,...but getting closer by the year ;-)) I hope
I enjoy the creative aspects of creating the best in each of my images and improving my FAA premium website as I grow along ;-)
I try to present new and different pieces that set themselves apart from run of the mill images and over done subjects.
Unfortunately I have chosen a narrow theme of interest,..(Down East Maine),...and therefor have limited subject interest.
FAA is the only site I display my work to sell online.
I am not active on social networks nor do I market myself as I could,...so that hurts my sales and exposure.
I derive a great deal of satisfaction from a portfolio I am proud of,....and have worked very hard to create and pull it all together.
Have especially enjoyed new friendships in various forums and groups here,....the talent and opinions expressed on FAA have helped me grow and improve each day.
FAA is a very enjoyable adventure for this guy in his retirement years.

Reached a number of milestones last month:
200 pictures, 20,000 views, 100 followers, 600th view on 1 picture. Most importantly I made my first sale.
Yesterday I set a new high for views in 24 hours with 317.
9 hours into today I already have 146 - could be on for a new record!

I'll have my 5th year completed, starting my 6th on the 18th of this month. I'm trying to hit 3,000 images by the end of the year. I have 42 to go. That's after deleting over 500 images since I started that were not up to snuff. It's easier to tell now what will print and what won't. If I could just figure out what sells :-). Although, the Michigan landmark and shorelines sell better for me than any of the others, which I guess is a good thing since that's where I live....

The other day I hit 20,000 views, at least according to my profile page, "behind the scene's" says something different.

I still have the drive to make art everyday.
Alfred,
I look forward hopefully to saying that years from now.

Visitor count rolled over 2,000,000 last night (joined just over 10 years ago).
P.S. Is there an easy way to see Favorites count - other than going back back back back to the end of your account and then multiplying out times number of images on a page, I mean?

Nikolyn, assume you are familiar with this page, which shows Favourites (even Favorites) totals? Is that what you are asking about?

This year I will have been on FAA for 15 years. Only 1298 images online to date, but that still equates to roughly 7 uploaded per month and 820 sales overall (approx. 4.5 a month).
My most popular image, for both sales and views, is this one with 88,594 views:
I'm still not entirely sure why, but suspect it may be a holdover from the days when FAA used to promote a selection of artist's work on the home page, of which this was one. It's a shame they don't do that anymore, outside of big names and art houses.

Congratulations Dave! Abbie has open some image threads and if you post your abstracts, flowers, animals or landscapes in those she might choose your images to promote on social media :)
