Agreed. I think the original intent of the thread was valid (at least in something like the Poser/3D venues), but real artists don't worry about views and comments. A true artist creates art for art's sake, and fulfills a drive, not a view quota. It's so odd, I mean, there's no equivalent to this in the world of fine art. You have art critics, and in school you have your instructor and group critiques by fellow students (always interesting); but this is something else entirely, and often not really about the art at all, but more about popularity and cliques.
