Jimi has written basically the same as I did in my Magical Disappearing Post(!), maybe a little more strongly. Personally I don't get offended by stuff like this but I can see how a lot of people might. I just find it boring and extremely dull. Having said that, my mother came over the other day and I was showing her the gallery - I was embarrassed at a couple of the images that appeared in the thumbs - it looked like a page from a porno site. ...probably ;) What hasn't been mentioned yet is that many of these pics leave room for a rating and comment. How many of you (and I include myself here) have gone and posted a rating of 3 or 4 on these pieces, with comments of "boring" or "how long did that take - 2 minutes?" The thing is, if these people carry on getting 10's and "wonderful work!" then they're going to carry on posting! The comments sections are an opportunity to say what we think, yet we're all (mostly!) polite and only post ratings of 8 and above. Maybe it's time we singled out a few of the crappy Poser pics and handed out a few 2's and 3's! It won't cure the problem overnight, but at least we could say we'd expressed our views in a proper manner.
