oh no, please feel free to tell me you liked my picture : )

I like comments of all sort. Clay's comments in the forums crack me up.
And the way people reply to his, is equally as funny.

I appreciate all comments I get, if you like my picture, then yes, please tell me you like it. If you can verbalize what you like about it, fine, I'd love to hear that too! BUt if all you can say is "great picture" (or even average), I'll take it. If, on the other hand, you think my picture is awful, please be kind in your words and tell me what is awful about it, so possibly I can make a better attempt next time.

To answer the original question...I vote on every pic submitted and comment on about 60-75%. Sometimes I just can't think of anything at all to say. (but I'm working on that!)

Sometimes there aren't enough hours in the day to comment, take next week's picture, work, relax, etc. I would love to comment on each and every photo but it's just not possible.

It doesn't take much to amaze me. Thanks for that wonderful visual description magnetic. It will haunt me the rest of the day.
