That's a good approach for any critic, but I don't think having the artist write an essay first on what they where trying to achieve is very practical. That's why I tend to comment on images that "speak to me" anyway. There's a certain chance in those cases that the communication might be actually working. Maybe not practical for the hobbyist that just want to share their images and improve with practice through examples in the galleries which is the normal route here. It seemed to me that Bobbie25 was talking about something different that went beyond the normal methods, since it was mentioned I want to see more peple that have the balls to stand up and put there foot down on the kiss ass comments. If they have the balls to stand up to the empty flattery of the kiss ass comments then they should have the determination to put the effort into putting what they meant to achieve if they want serious feedback on what to improve
