Now that the voting period is almost over, I am looking closely at the
images for which I only gave a brief comment and finding *nothing* else
productive to say. It is hardest for me when the image looks as if it were
done in a very short period of time. I'm sure the person *knows* what would
make the image better, he just didn't have the time to act on that
knowledge. In that case, no suggestions are useful because the artist has
not yet had a chance to reach the potential of his own ability or
imagination. A lot of praise isn't really appropriate either, because the
image is still almost in concept form. I have been writing encouraging, but
unfortunately generic comments in these cases. Things like "Nice start" or
"Looks great so far."
