[QUOTE="ohkphoto, post: 157017, member: 1573"] All good and valid points. We have been wrestling with this since the forum started. Some people want a really detailed critique, others don't want to hear anything other than "great photo". I think most people use the 12 points as guidelines. it helps you focus on something concrete rather than, "I just don't like your photo, but I don't know why." I know the "threat to delete" sounds harsh, but all we ask is that you try. I rarely delete a critique that was made in good effort. Critiques need a little more than "I like it." If I posted the photo, I want to know what you liked or didn't like, or what I could have done differently. We have many threads where people can "play" . This section is designed for photographers who want to take their photography to the next level. . . a place where other photographers will give [B]a good analysis of the photo, which requires looking at the photo several times and using some kind of standard. [/B]Nothing is set in stone, so your suggestions are well taken and I'm sure we'll be discussing this further. [/QUOTE]
