Thread in question
http://www.thephotoforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=122391
Continuation of the discussion started in the above thread - here so that the above can continue to function without getting weighted down with chatter and debate:
Summary for those new -
Kundalini:
If this has been mentioned, I apologize for missing it, but there should be a limit on the number of photos per link to ask for critique.
One is preferred and two as a maximum.
Trying to sort through 23 photos in a link will not get my attention....well, it does, but renders it useless to critique.
Just my 2¢ worth.
Dioboleque:
I just want to say that I realize people have issues with lots of photos in a post, but in my defense I'd like to say that in my first post there are 7 photos, but 4 of them are of the same thing just different perspectives, so to me that sort of groups them together. Same in the second post, 6 of the first 7 are of the same subject from different perspectives, so if u consider them a group... I wanted to share them all, but obviously don't expect critique on every individual photo since the critique for one would more than likely apply to several... you could always look through them and pick one that stood out as especially in need or something more than just ignoring them completely... I just don't get too many to critique any, but getting comments and critique has seemed a struggle since I started posting...
Abraxas:
It's a struggle for nearly everyone when we begin posting.
Best strategy is to pick a shot and run with it. Bump it if you have to.
Once upon a time we had a critique forum. Well, it died and probably went to hell because it was too hard to figure out what was desired by the poster. Myself, I only have two eyes and have not figured out how to look at more than one photo at a time.
On a side note, I'm wondering what happened to the members that requested this forum in the first place?- Possibly you should request a mentor? Check the following for a list of eager members.

Also I have added a new "rule" to the thread to try and take into account the point raised about the number of photos posted for commenting on
