Wow. Thought-Provoking question. I don't actually think I could vocalize why I decide to click. In the beginning, when I was first starting out with poser, I would usually click what most of you like to call the "Big Names". Why? Because they seemed to have established to me that they knew what they were doing and I could learn from them. Now, my clicking varies. There are some names that I will always click on because I admire their style. Sinsister, Desdemona, picky, toxic ange, andgevidal,among the many. If I see a posting for these people, I will always click to see what they are doing. Other than that, it is kind of hit or miss. Although I think I have never randomly clicked on an image without a thumb. I am stuck in the middle of nowhere with a dial-up connection. If an artist doesn't have time to create a thumbnail, I really don't have time to spend 5 minutes waiting to view a picture that I have no idea what it is. T&A doesn't really pull me, and if the thumb looks like that is what it is going to be, I won't view it. But I will view other pinups at times, or thumbs that I like the color or style or lighting or feel of. It just depends. I also view often with the nudity filter when my son wants to look with me. So then there is a whole other scope of pictures that I view, because we look at what he chooses. At 3 1/2, he likes to see bright colors still. As far as commenting, I haven't for awhile due to lack of time. It is a terrible excuse, I know, but when you only have 1/2 hour to view everything posted since the last day on a dial-up, time becomes an issue. Unless I have a rare day off with extra time, I usually only comment on great works that don't seem to have been commented on. Well that's my 2 cents. Angela
