Armorbeast -- You misread me. I do comment on newbies, and I tend to be gentle with them. I also do not comment only on established artists, but those who show some artistic merit. I don't care if they're established or not. In fact, I never pay attention to who the artist is until after I see the image (and I almost never actually go to the artists page). It's just that there must be SOME basic level of talent apparent before I'll invest the time to write something; hopefully the artist is here to improve their skill, but without some basic ability, well... To put it crudely, I don't waste my time commenting on things that totally suck. By the way, I like your suggestion about an alternative way to pick a Top Artist. I've never even been to the Top 20 here... maybe I'll mosey over and see what's there.
