I'm going to play devils advocate here, so please bear with me. Alot of members do find the LWitG to be a value to them. There's no denying this. As stated in a previous thread, the LWitG is not a contest. Its a summary of the past week, the cliff notes... an overview. Ok, so WHAT IF it IS perceived differently and some members DO get the wrong idea behind the LWitG? What then? You can't fault them for this. Most I don't feel would voice their opinion, perhaps they don't want to make "waves" or fear reprisal. One thing is you can't please everybody, but you can change perception, maybe its time to revise how images are selected. A simple criteria would be to NOT have an artist appear 2 weeks in a row. This would give others a chance to be spotlighted, balance it out more and also bring more people to the forum (instead of those that hang here already.) I apologize if my comments here ruffle any feathers. Its not my intention. I've been on both sides of the fence here and I feel I have some unique insight on this. I also can put myself in other peoples shoes and see it from their view, which we all should do sometimes. Thx for your time. Joe
