hi, ive been with rosity only for about a year or so now, and i have made many friends here. but there is one thing that bothers me and i never see anyone talk about it. the fact that most of the art is not truley rated on what you think of it, with helpful comments, or true emotions. nor do the votes reflect that always either. people in contests, and the regular galleries make some lovely pictures and then someone with a larger email list gets more votes. not because the art is better, simply because those people who voted are trying to please their friends. i bet a better way to please your friends would be to help them become better by making "constructive critisism" and helping with ideas and not just saying "omg i love it" and voting for that person when theres another picture you like more, or being quiet when you think theres something that the person could do better on. just my opinion. and i dont mean offense to anyone, this is meant to try to help the community grow.
