Gosh, Andreas, you do feel strongly about the V! ;~D I have voted on a few images, truth to tell I can't remember whether I actually commented on the fact that I had...but if I did...I was doing the "sheep" thing, doing what's been done before. When one tries to fit into a new community, it's often easier to conform on SOME things. You should not judge your work so critically with regard to how many comments you get....There are so many dynamics as to why people may or may not have commented on a particular day let alone on a specific image therefore it does not have any direct bearing on the quality of your image. I've viewed images at one time or another created by all the names on this thread, and I think you're all blooming marvellous....so there you go....!! :~) Mac

Keith, I looked at your image, I don't think I left a comment tho' because it was going to be more about the trials of having teenage kids rather than the quality of your work! A fascinating thread this..As a new member to this group, I was in awe of the work, and to say the least TERRIFIED to post anything! I had one well known member who offered encouragement and as they say Robert's your Auntie's husband! I've never used any Fractal software until a month or so ago, so I have a heck of lot to learn. I try not to feel downhearted...not at the lack of comments...but my own efforts, At the moment I can only create what I am capable of creating with the little knowledge I have. It's great to get feedback tho' even if it is to tell me what the weather's doing in your area!!! Oh and I got a V yesterday...I was gobsmacked! Mac
