Well said Zhann, you are so right about the personal issue of it. It is like walking a tightrope when critisizing someones work. Some folks have thick skin and others don't. One should always be careful when someone hasn't specificaly said "Let me have it!" I for one love to post my Wips here, I still feel like a newbie and want as much constructive crits as I can get. But when someone doesn't ask for it, it becomes difficult to judge how the critism will sound to them. I actually liked the person in question's boat image, not enough to vote it in the top 20 but it seemed like an improvement to me. I liked the sparkley look that unantialising provided. I also think Jen was quite right, we don't know this person's background. Although, it isn't fair for them to vote themselves in or have friends do it, in the end its not hurting that many people and we do have the power to vote in those few that may not be making it in. So I agree with those before that have said "go forth and vote". I'll try to do it also but I have time constraints and have trouble just keeping up with the forum threads. And I think that anyone who wants to complain about the top20 quality after today had better be out there voting! Go Vote!
