Saatchi Online

As an artist, it's important for me to make sure the rest of the world is seeing my work. As you know, I've already joined Flickr.

I was told today about Saatchi Online, but my exploration of the site makes me wary. It is poorly designed (i.e. bland) and the buttons to chat with those artists who are online are cheese to the max. Anyone have experience with this? I've heard a big success story with this, and the side panel on the site (if you scroll down... another huge design flaw) seems to indicate that there are many, so this is something I'll keep in mind. If you have some positive experiences with this site, please let me know!
