Why do people view what they view? Possibly some effect of looking at things online changes how people choose what to view the most. I know that looking at a thumbnail (even of the whole picture) is a lot different from looking at the full-sized picture (annoying when I have to scroll) which looks even more different than seeing a picture in real life as it is hanging on a wall. I think this causes a different sort of impact on people. Don't forget, the audience here is geared not only to artists, but people who like computers, science fiction and fantasy. This is bound to skew things in a way different from the general population. Just my observations. Lin
