Part of the friendly challenge is to hone our skills. Its always great to get some feedback and make changes. We've all done a Homer at one time or another and being able to correct that in a timely manner is part of learning. That said, it would get confusing if everyone did this. Last year there was a member who posted 6 or 7 wip's (and they were identified as wips) every month. That got old after a while. I think its ok (provided that AgentSmith approves) for someone, especially someone new to the challenge, to post one or two and get some feedback. But one of the skills we should look at developing is like FWTempest's comment that in a prize contest its one or nothing. We don't really have an area here for criticism so I suppose the main forum is the place. That's also the place for the challenge image. Quite frankly, I would like to have a place where we can post images for the specific purpose of criticism, then dealing with the comments. Some folks appreciate negative criticism, others hate it. It would be great if we had a "critic's corner" for any media where images could be posted to be harshly commented on by anyone, especially folks who use other programs.
