Damn, i'll never get away from here at this rate...LOL I totally agree with the above comments as well. It's been a while (about 2 years) since i've been to an Art Gallery. While I was there I don't remember seeing pieces of paper and pens under each painting for people to write comments on...There were no little boxes to tick under 'Excellent', 'Good' and 'Crap'. There was also no one standing at the exit taking polls on who I thought was the best artist... Maybe this is a missed opportunity for Art Galleries everywhere? Maybe they can increase the number of 'hits' on old masters paintings by adding a bit of interactivity to the whole process? After all we're in the middle of a revolution...Video Mobile Phones, Interactive Digital Television, Broadband Internet Access, etc, etc...Why would anyone want to actually get up out of their chair, go outside their house and visit an Art Gallery? Maybe Art Galleries everywhere should take a leaf out of Renderosity's book and follow suit...? Or maybe not...
