Your idea has merit PeeWee, why not post it over in the suggestion forum so we have it officially on file. I won't say that there are or aren't clicks but can only speak from personal experience. Having been here a while, I've see commenting in my gallery shift this way and that. People commenting on my work now are pretty much completely different than those who commented on my work years ago. Sometimes I get a bunch of the same people commenting, other days it is scattered. Sometimes I'll get a lot of comments from one person as they catch up on things. The point is, everyone's situation is different. There is only so much time in the day and we all want to make the most of it. With so many photos being added each day it is hard to give attention to them all. And why should you? Just because they are in the gallery? I try to skim the gallery on occasion and comment on images no matter who posts them. Other times I check out only one page, or to the ebots I get for my faves. And yes, I have faves because there are people who's work I don't want to miss for whatever reason. Sure, if you comment on everyone's images, you'll probably get a lot of comments in return. But even if it is the dreaded "cut and paste" comment, you at least know the person stopped by and thought well enough of your work to let you know they were there. At least that is what we could hope were the reasons...
