William I am surprised you bring professionalism into it in such as proud and arrogant manner. Do you think that I voicing this opinion because I don't have lots of hits myself? It has nothing to do with the amount of hits I receive, large or small. BTW I (like most artists) am proud of the DIVERSITY and variety in my gallery. I see this is something that William and I also seem to disagree on as I see all his pictures bear a remarkable similarity. Am I being close-minded to voice my concern that many pictures with sub-standard textures and composition get more hits than other more technical and creative works? I don't think so... I am merely worried that this site will lose any outside respect it has when people see that we cannot as a community discern the difference between gold and dross.
