hmm, but i agree in some way I just realised.
I never comment on any images of babies or children on here .. as mostly it is the poster's kids and he or she will take anything very personal
Yeah, exactly. I'll sometimes dip my toe in that realm, but I usually stay far away. It's especially hard on the Internet, because you don't have any body language to read. I've seen in person how crushed someone can be, and I don't want to be doing that. I'm not good at the feel-good fuzzy stuff when talking about someone's image. I'll do my best to be polite and post everything as opinion and not fact, but I do tend to focus on what I think could be improved rather than what I liked. That's just the way my head works. If some aspect is especially good, I'll comment on it, but it usually has to be something that's more that just "ok". There are usually enough people saying "I like it!" that I don't feel like I need to add encouragement.
