"or is that anasazi?" hehehe, sorry, I'm not smart enough to understand what that means... "I am, however, aware that there are people who do "gallery stuff" and people who do "forum stuff" " I agree, there are cliques, but they exist in both the galleries and the forums. I don't know you, so I guess it's just your style to offer opinions to people. I've only been here for about a year and I don't know alot of people and spend very little time in the forums. I'm sure you have a following here. From what what I've seen, the forums are a bit of a free-for-all and people's feelings aren't always of much concern when posting opinions. For myself, if I know that I may well hurt someone's feelings with my opinions, I prefer to keep it private. Regarding the space limitations of PM, gosh isn't it something like 5000 characters? I would think you ought to be able to distill your thoughts on an image down to 5000 characters. Some people who post images are not trying to be artistic, they're just trying to have some fun and share their efforts with the friends they have here. Why intrude on that? Still, even now that I have said all that, if you really feel it's your place to go through the galleries and "help" people, then I wish you well. Merry Christmas!
