For me there are a few differnt ways I can find myself wanting to click. If I see an image by a friend I'll check it out and probably leave a comment just so they know I looked. If I see an image by someone whose images I've enjoyed before Ill check it out. In that case I'll leave a comment if I think I have something I want to say. I hardly ever leave "thats wonderful" type comments. I'll point out a particular aspect of the pic that really impresses me or I'll suggest a way of improving some aspect of the pic that lets it down, or both. For people unknown to me what draws me in can be either the thumbnail or the title. Interesting and unusual is what I look for. Also the detail and quality of the thumb is important. Colours are important too. If the colours are boring or the posing looks amateur or there's no background detail, I'm unlikely to click. With my own gallery, I've noticed that I get comments from friends (about one quarter of all comments), consistent comments from people I don't know but who I guess must like my pics enough to keep an eye out for them (another quarter) and comments from people I've never heard of (about half). Sometimes I get comments from the vendors of products I use. I also sometimes search by my name to see if I can find images with my stuff in them. I do that because Im curious about what people do with my stuff (free stuff or store stuff). Its a nice feeling to see your stuff being used by somebody. I may leave a comment if the image interests me enough or if I have some particular advice about how to get the best results from my item. I just recently posted my first ever T&A thumb. It got more hits in the first 24 hours than any other pic Ive done and is also the only pic I have that got more than 10 comments. To me, that says it all about what makes most people click.
