I have noticed many new people posting.So many of them are asking for some input but get none whatsoever.There are no comments on their photos after so many days.I do try and offer some input if I see something that I believe worthy.I do have to side step my paranoia as coming across as being arrogant.Any one could look into my gallery and have a lot of to critique.I have to admit that I have become a little squeamish at offering input to some members because after offering some critique, I immediately received some of the same on my photos.I was pleased to get this input and it was correct but it seemed retaliatory in nature.I stepped out of my "clique" and seemed to get a negative response and never heard from them again.I feel for the new people that cannot get a comment on their photos.I often look at someones profile before I give some critique and size them up you might say.I look for age first, young people can take it, established members in a clique, I tend to sidestep having been bitten.That`s just the way it is here and it`s too bad.I wish that more of us could pay attention to new people with a few rather lousy first posts and encourage them to improve and post again when we see something in their photos.
