hmmm.... good point Wolfie. But here's my reasons; I don't post many comments personally, but when I do it's because I honestly really like an image or a style that someone is developing. If someone spends a few hours doing a picture and no-one tells them how good it is, it must be demoralising! I know I'm thankful that there's people out there who give "Cool Pic" comments. I don't post on images I don't like, for two reasons. 1. My personal taste is exactly that..... I appreciate that what I don't like, others do. Cat pics prove that!! ;) 2. I know that sometimes the way I phrase things / the humour I use isn't understood by everybody. No-one likes criticism, and unfortunately a lot of people take it personally. I didn't really think about that until someone posted some pretty negative, albeit in hindsight productive, comments on one of my first PSig pics and I took them to heart a bit. (Actually, something that I thought was pretty cool a while back was when someone posted a pic there that a few people just "found" faults with - and it turned out the pic had been stolen from a professional photographers art site....... he he, nobody's perfect!!)
