All publicity is good publicity..even this ! How high have the views gone on the photo since this thread appeared ? Maybe you two planned this ???  Guerilla Marketing perhaps ?  Good work !.  LOL!

I think its really pathetic when you have all these people begging for comments on the main page in the little announcement thingy.

This is simply a failure of the imagination -- your problem, not everyone else's.  But you are clearly not alone. 

Comments are the lingua franca of MM.  They are a system of exchange through which people introduce themselves to another. 

Some of those introductions will result in deeper connections.  Most won't.  Of course out of 10 "comments" if even one results in a connection, the other 9 failures are easily forgotten.

Think of comments as business cards with URL's on them, and the words as a kind of "nice to meet you."

There is a whole forum available for critiques.  Those who want them can go to the forum and ask.  Responses can be public or private.

This "comment" confusion -- and apparent anger -- looks to me like people who don't know how to network.  Just think of them as biz cards (for those who know what business cards are) and lighten up.
