a very interesting topic and read... for me my gallery here represents the best of what I was doing at a given time, and sometimes when I've taken a bunch of shots of a particular place I might upload a small series but generally I either only upload the ones I'm in some way proud of, or which are there for friends, or which are new ideas and experiments I haven't tried before and can look back on if I decide to try something again in the future..

I agree with 'camera' I'm less likely to delete an image if someone has made it a part of their favourites collection, but it doesn't really sway my decision if it's only 1.. and again I don't automatically delete images without any favourites as it's probably there for a reason... see, I'm a bit of a lazy ass getting around to finishing building my website so for the meantime a gallery like this is a useful place to be able to direct people to if they want to know what kind of photography I do... so I guess I try to keep it as streamlined as possible, and there's a core structure of images which I'll never delete....

regarding talk of other sites, I find I'm more likely to post conceptual or 'half-baked' ideas in my gallery here as I know if I ask for it many of you will kindly give me honest feedback... over on DeviantArt (where my volume of views is higher, but feedback lower) I tend to only post those ones I think are maybe more commercial and 'finished' ideas.....   cheers for starting this Bruce, nice to know people's opinions too
