Steve,
Very nicely done critiques. You should write them more often. I'd be very happy to get critiques of that quality on my photographs.

Thanks Terry, I hope I get the same response from those who received them. I maybe tempted to do some more as they are enjoyable. :) |

Actually, I think the Free Study is going to be fun to comment on. There are some beautiful shots in there. |

In all probability, they will appreciate them as well.
Sadly there are a very few cases where users have sent nasty messages to a comment writer -- I assume this is why you had sworn off commenting for a while.
I promise you, though, that for every person who bristles at criticism in a comment, there are dozens or more who appreciate candid and honest assessments of their work. I encourage you not to let a few thin-skinned people ruin the enjoyment of the commenting process, either for you or for the vast majority of the community who appreciate honest and constructive feedback.
~Terry

Hmm, must have been one of us that finished off that last one! There were 2 left when I went to click also!
Great job everyone! YAY!! :) |

Are we supposed to do this? I didn't know. :) |
Congratulations to everyone on clearing the queue. That's outstanding.
Yes, we talked about writing PMs a long time ago in the Forums. The one I send goes something like this:
Greetings from the Critique Club

Great job everyone I got back from the day out to bust a few more out and they are done! Way to go and thanks so much for the hard work. Terry I am going to up the ante a bit for your challenge. After the 3 rollovers we get this week if we get the Que back down to zero I'll send you a check for $10 and if it happens again the next week, same thing, every week through the month while the challenge is on. If we hit it every week of the month I'll kick in an extra $10 for a total of a possible $50 out of my pocket donation! So come on folks step up your critiques and make me open my wallet for something other then buying camera equipment!

Very nice! I got up this morning and checked and got the "Try again next week" message - I'd never seen that before. :-) |

ooooo, ursula. Nice run. Too bad there weren't a couple of more pictures in the queue. ;P
Good job ya'll. |

I wonder (and this has been wondered before) if those asking for critiques are just checking boxes when they submit. Of the nine I wrote yesterday, only two comments have been checked as Helpful, though I did receive a nice PM from a third recipient who apparently doesn't mark things as "Helpful" very often.
No matter, it's fun to do them and I shall continue. |

Okay, 50-few images back in the queue. Shouldn't be a problem to get this down to 0, again sometime before Monday ends. |

Just did 3. Only 29 left.

Less than 10 to go. (I think 7 or 8, even) WooHOOOOOooooooooo. |

I just got one of the last 2!!! |

Took care of 8 or so today. Been a while since i have played in the CC. The call to arms always makes it a bit more interesting.
That and I got to comment on Hotpastas Blue ribbon winner. How easy can it get? |

out of curiosity: I submitted to the april free study a picture, and checked the CC box (back when I submitted my picture 2 weeks ago or so).
Yet, despite your queue being down to zero, I don't seem to have received any CC critique?
Let's be clear my point is absolutely not to complain. I know it's a lot of work for you guys, and I have comments anyway. My question is more a "technical" one: Do you always mention if it is a CC critique? And is your queue indicator working?
Anyway, again, I don't want to appear in any way as negative. This is a great contribution you do. Keep it up!

The critiques are done after the challenge is ended. That is, after the results are announced.
You image should go into the queue tonight. And, since we're working at clearing the queue, you will likely get a critique :)

Free study is still being voted on. Critique Club only comments after the challenge is over.
eta -- beat to the punch by ursula.

thx for the clarification.
Still by genuine curiosity, why is that so? why not also the pictures during the challenge? Doesn't knowing the author alter the CC critique? (same logic as for general challenge critiques) |
