If you included the Fractal Forum Challenges, you would find beautifully abstract and inspirational graphics. I don't think the creator of a graphic would necessarily have an advantage over anyone else...each person sees something different in a graphic or a piece of writing. The creator may, in fact, be handicapped by a lack of world view (being too close to one's own work is something I see and experience frequently). I haven't been participating in challenges lately so I don't really feel like I should have a vote. That's just my opinion, for what it is worth.
