I have to say that I really love my comments so far.

- I like "X"
- I don't like "X"
- I like "Y"
- I don't like "Y"

reminds me of those talking heads on TV reading their viewer mail and having back-to-back mail taking opposite positions on the newsman.

At least I'm getting folks to think a bit about my picture!

Slow but sure I am recovering from those 2's that were thrown at me last night. That was sure disappointing to see so many start out with those low numbers. I thought I might make a 6 in this one until I got hit. Have had a few drops during the day but climbing slowly up.

I've been through roughly half the pictures and I did see one pretty strong contender. I wondered if it was yours Caleb.

I am not doing badly but not what I thought either and tonight I realized why! When this challenge was announced a link was posted to Broken I .. so I reviewed the entries and winners. Tonight I went back to that link and looked at the challenge description "Details: Creatively capture your interpretation of broken."

This Broken challenge is NOT the same .. I was mislead!!! This description is "Details: Find and take a photograph of something that is already broken."

I am not the only one either. There are lots of shots where people broke things on purpose or shots of them breaking things. Are all these shots getting low marks because they were not "already broken"?

I don't think challenges should be referenced to the first ones unless they have the same description.

I will also (in the future) be VERY careful to read the description because of this discovery!!

Makes me wonder if you'll remember when I revisit my Phobia entry? ;)

I just think it's a valid post .. why call it Broken II if it's not??? It's very misleading!

It's called Broken II because it *is* Broken II... which is a different thing from Broken (I), so what's the problem? :)
