OK, establish a critic's panel. TigerShark claimed to be a professional, and at least a couple of people found his comments helpful so he can chair it and recruit a couple of other worthy citizens. Each week, people can submit an image (anonymopusly) and three or four will be chosen at random. The panel members will each give their take on the chosen images in an open thread and then everyone else can add their comments if they choose. So, more people will get a chance for a focused critique of their work, it will serve as a seminar and open discussion on criticism and since the submissions will be anonymous, no one will be embarassed. Anyone who feels they have the right stuff to be a critic can apply to be on the panel and the membership will change every few months.
