after a time, you develop an 'amen corner'; of people who check out and comment on your stuff. And you get a similar number of hits on each page, mainly from the ebots sent out to people who have made you a 'favrut'..;) The way you know you've done something special is if the count goes way up. You can use thumbnails to spark interest. Put in *almost* all the good parts of the pic (faces, action, etc), and leave what must be the rest of the picture out of the thumbnail. This is called 'cropping', and you can do it with programs like 'the Gimp', below..which can also do the dark side; postwork..
