"I'm surprised sometimes at which images get commented on , and which don't. My favorites don't seem to be crowd pleasers except outside the Rend community, but of course since that means friends and family with no accounts, there wouldn't be comments. My Circus Wagon got only 5 comments here, and yet was chosen by a customer as the image they wanted to use on party invitations." I'm looking at your image right now, and I like it alot. It has good pattern and geometry and whimsical coloring, but it isn't a crowdpleaser. I've noticed this myself when making and posting fractals that there are certain elements that makes them crowdpleasers. I think it comes down to the thumbnail, if people like the thumbnail, they'll like the picture. 1. Bright. If a fractal looks like fireworks with bright colors the thumbnail is more attractive than a picture with smaller details that takes time to appreciate. 2. Overstated meaning. If a fractal is created to resemble something in reality, a bird or a tree and this is stated in the title, the image will draw a crowd. This is not as apperant on my website though, where the topviewed images is very diverse. I don't know... I have to go now, the my dinner is getting cold.
