but .... if you do images for the responses then you aren't doing it for the right reasons - i mean artists post work here wanting to get pure feedback on how they can improve etc, see their work thru someone elses eyes, and see the faults and what they can improve upon .... but all you get is "oh thats a lovely image or awesome work" ....
You dont get the feedback, some members are fine by that, others tend not to be.
Me, i want feedback on my work, but do i get it? No I dont, and its rare that one member will come along and say hey you know you can remove this by doing this and this? and i've just learnt something new to add to my work flow.
It seems that the ONLY way to get comment on your work is by spending large amounts of time looking and commenting on the work of others.. i.e. You scratch My back and I scratch Yours...
Only recently I stopped commenting on other contributors work (due to an ever increasing lack of time) The looks at My work has dropped by more than 70% yet the comments seem only to drop by around 50%
If One includes NUDITY in an upload the number of looks almost quadruples, but with no increase of comment.. People do not have time to give a critique (and I am sure there are many who would not want to).. I have been told elsewhere "Go to an Art Class".. So now I am just posting and appreciating whatever comes My way....
