Although I am very guilty of the trite comment, mainly through an ageing brain and time constraints, I do OH SO agree with this list...fab. And i thought I was the only person in the world who believes that it's where you point it that matters.
What a relief to find I'm not.

I have pics that fall into all of them at one point or another....biggest being the watermark...although I don't put it all over my photos.

Here's a REAL pet peeve....CAT and DOG pics....lol!  Hey, but I do it anyways...easy cash!

I guess my pet peeve is when people look at one of my prints and say, "You must have a good camera," or "You're lucky you have such a good camera!"

My usual response now is to say, "Yeah, it's good. Sometimes I just send my camera to a shoot because I don't really have to be there!"

 People who make the assumption that digital photography is so easy because it is "all computerised isnt it" and think that you can just upload the photos to the computer when you get back (of the wedding/christening/party) and just send them on over without taking a couple of hours out of your day...

I think one of my pet peeves.. is the obviously over processed photo. Post work is an art form unto itself.  But I don't like seeing the not so great image over processed and all the WOW comments.

I guess my other pet peeve (specific to Renderosity) is the "have to post" member..

Have post multiple images everyday.. Are you really that good ?  I'm either way too hard on myself or I totally suck at this..LOL

That is not a bad list.  As for posting multiple images, I am fortunate to get one up a week and then sometimes look again and know it really isn't a gallery quality image.    Still,   I might get a "wow" once in a while.

I don't want to give the wrong impression..If you want to post multiple images daily..More power to you..

I'm with you Tom, I tend to average one about every three days

I have to batter the over-saturated shot in this. It's one thing to enhance color to a nice richness but when everything goes neon and looks like the scenery has been "plugged in" to a 220 outlet, I turn cold.  I've had some shots do that under certain lighting conditions and I've had to postwork them to remove what I can of it , but I can't imagine saturating red or yellow until it becomes a screaming blob of eye-blinding color on purpose.
 
I'm  also trying to get over my nervousness at the unlevel horizon...not the ones that are obviously tilted for artistic value, but the ocean horizon that makes me wonder how long the shot can hold its water before it runs off the side... or a building that looks like it ought to be another leaning tower landmark, but its not. 

And I agree with the mulitple posts each day, every day. I just don't look at more than one per member. I choose the better of them from the thumbs and that's the only one I open. If its not the one left open for comments, then I don't go looking for the one that does allow them, I don't leave any comment at all...just one view.

I enjoy HDR on occassion but a steady diet of it doesn't really show me all I want in photography. Its a great postworking skill but at some point, you have to show what you can do with your own talent, skill and knowledge through a clean photo - a good eye for composition and pov. (I know, that's a standard comment but they are important)

I have shot photos of particular objects at the request of an employer or as a volunteer.  The better shots are sometimes appreciated and sometimes no more than a typical snapshot.  Yes, "Your camera takes a good picture" is heard once in a while.  These folks honestly appear not to know the difference in a good to fine shot and a quickie snapshot with cut off parts.  Then again, those folks are not my  valued viewers, critics and  customers. This last group knows the difference and recognizes value in the photographer/photograph more than the equipment.
