haha this IS an interesting thread.
iunno i use flickr 'cause i like the photostream layout better than most of the other photo hosting sites i used before.
its been said before, flickr's a place for everyone, from serious photographers to kids with a camera who want praise. i also find it appeals to those "kids with cameras" more than it appeals to serious photographers. that said, theres bound to be crappy photos, decent ones, and amazing ones. and of course, theres gonna be crappy photos that get lots of praise from uneducated people. there's also the issue of commenting to get noticed.
iunno, i think i'm somewhere between "serious photographer" and "kid with a camera who wants praise"... more on the kid side. i want an aesthetically pleasing (at least in my eyes) place to share my photos and get useful feedback on how to improve on them, and hopefully get noticed by a few people. i can do without the praise and useless comments though. maybe flickr's not the best place but i guess i'll use it since i bought a "pro" account.
flickr kinda reminds me of highschool. if you're popular and have friends, everything you do is worthy of praise :]
