- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos OK to edit
I am somewhat guilty, and tend to only comment within my comfort zone, or within my knowledge/ability.
If it's what I take as a non C&C thread - Just For Fun, Here Kitty, Kitty, etc. and I like a photo (or the subject) I will say so OR I will hit the like button. If I am indifferent ("meh") or I don't like it, I just move on without comment.
For the C&C threads it's a bit more complex.
If I feel I the poster appears to be at a level equal or less than my abilities (a real beginner) then I will usually say what I like about it, then what I don't, then make suggestions on how I would have done it. I want to be honest, but encouraging.
If the poster appears to be at a level above me (most of you) and feel I can really add something useful that hasn't already been said, I will usually do so. I try not to echo what's already been said without adding something. If I feel that any of my comments would not add value, I hit the "back" button.
