oh, and i just want to say this. someone mentioned in the other thread that this is an arbitrary and artificial way to get comments. for me it's not. i would rather have detailed critiques, and i would rather give them. i find myself taking much longer to write two or three purely positive lines that are also meaningful. i just don't do, "love it! it's perfect!" in general. it's not me. but a lot of people don't want thorough critiques, and for various highly respectable reasons. this group identifies matches me up with the kind of people i want to comment on, and who i want comments from. otherwise, i won't comment much. asking for thorough critiques is the natural way to get me to comment, not doing enticing thumbnails or posting technically perfect work.
