If i may, i would like to add a little thing...i suppose ive become one of those "popular names" as some of you put it. I am fully aware that i get plenty of comments on account of the fact that i take time to comment on other peoples work. I do that because i like to comment and i like to encourage people...i am NOT (as many here seem to think) fishing for comments in return. I wont lie and say i dont care if i get comments or not because they mean a great deal to me. They dont even have to be about the photo i uploaded, i get just as happy just receiving a simple "Hello" or "have a great day"....as Cindy said, just the fact that people take their time to view and type something about whatever they want is really rewarding for me. Constructive critizism is superb and all....but for me the encouragement i get from all those who take their time to comment on my work is what really has made me grown.....cause i have....havent i? At least i think so. And by looking at all those amazing photos that are out there i always learn something new. If i see something that i think could have been improved i either send the artist an IM or i wrap it in as softly as i can. People react differently to critizism so better do it gently. Im getting quite fed up with these kind of discussions that has beeen flying around lately. And what is funny to me is that, those who starts complaining often compare this site to someother that according to them has such a better system...bla bla bla...what i cant understand is why not leave this place then??? Why feel the need to bring the rest of us down with their bitterness??? Seeing this has become quite a long reply id say that i just threw my 10 euros in....i probably didnt make any sense though..being swedish and all...bla bla...finally i would just like to add this....I LOVE THIS PLACE!!! And i have made some amazing friends here, so i aint leaving until you drag me out....which you might now though...sigh...

How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is supposed to be fire and brimstone?
