As a member of the Critique Club I lessened the number of comments I leave during a challenge cause I kept getting the photos again in CC.

I still do more than the minimum number of CCs a week and last I knew that meant that your photos would get CCed before others. I haven't had a CC in the last few challenges and I am wondering did I miss something did this aspect suddenly change?

I think that aspect changed some months ago when the total number had dropped so low that no one except CC members got them. Maybe even when John was still coordinating things.

Some of that will be due to the fact that every time I hit the 'give me a photo to critique' button I get one of your photos Anna. After about the sixth time, I pretty much gave up, and I think that at least two ir three ties I've just waited until the next challenge, rather than write something I didn't believe or really mean just to get to the next shot. I apologise, a bit, for that - and your 'life' photo is presently awaiting my comment - but I'm really not sure I know what to say (and would rather say nothing than things unmeant).

If anyone would care to have a look atsome of anna's shots and leave a few thoughts, I too would appreciate it, as I'm sure would she (evidence this post).

I've posted this here in public rather than PM, because I'm thinking of not contributing to the CC anymore entirely because of this phenomenon. And I think it's unfair on Anna just as much (no, more so) than on me.

Couldn't have been that long ago cause I was getting them on every single challenge that I requested them on, just ask Ed he thought he was my person critic. The last one I got was the Back To School Challenge.

So when did this really end? I definately am feeling a little left out here.

Geesh Ed just let me know when it happens. I was very upset on the one photo last week that I didn't get a critique on, and had I known you had it, I would have told you a different way to handle that particular photo to get past it! As for the life photo, don't worry about it just go leave a comment to get past it...I only checked the box just to see if I was being forgotten and I knew when I clicked to do a CC tonight that all the life photos had been done for CC members. Thats why I started this thread.

You are right it is unfair that you constantly get my photos to critique and had you sent me a pm I would have given you a very easy solution to the Nostalgia challenge photo, which I am going to do the solution to it myself shortly.

Last I heard I think Terry (ClubJuggle) was coordinating things. Why don't you send him a PM? I'm not actually in the CC, I just try and keep an eye on things because I have substantial previous experience with an analogous group and occasionally have a useful suggestion.

'Life' has been commented on Anna. Thanks for the prompting! you'll bepleased to know my 'current' critique photo isn't one of yours :-)

Join the club (or, the non-club). :( Can't get a critique, can't join the club, got tired of complaining. I don't request them any more - what's the use. I said it before, and I'll say it again: it's broken.

I thought I left one on your life shot! damn!

I'm new at this. I've only entered two shots--the first was too small, and I appreciated all of the advice. The current entry (at rest) is currently at 4.7. Honestly I think a 5.5 would be correct, so I'm not far off. I would like comments and critiques though, because I have a lot to learn and I could use your knowledge. I checked the box requesting a critique. Should I do anything else?

Wait till after the challenge is over.

But don't hold your breath... :(

OK_thanks.

I have never received (that I am aware of anyway) a critique on my entries. Well, never is relative since I started submitting to challenges about a month ago...
