Response to The Purpose of Critiques

from Allan Engelhardt (allane@cybaea.com)

I agree with John completely: the purpose of critique is to learn something that will help you improve your skills. What works, what doesn't work. And importantly: why?

The point about the context is a valid one, and it will be helpful if people who post images would include as much background information as possible.

That being said, I think many of the posts here have been quite good in that respect. Maybe the initial post was a bit thin, but in most cases the poster got on to the idea and posted more details after a few comment.

I think this forum is very valuable.

Obligatory portrait included (if I get the HTML right!). Spot the camcorder!
