<< I think it would behove all of you remember that when you are learning
 something and have the courage to stick your neck out and show it to a
 group of people such as this, it would be nice to think that you would get
 encouragement and "constructive" criticism instead of rudeness, sarcasm and
 an attitude of "We're "professionals" and unless "we" think what you have
 done is perfect in our eyes then you're an idiot and a failure".
 
 There's no way I would put my work up here for suggestions or opinions,
 because I know the bulk of "critiques" would be from people who's egos are
 so over inflated that they don't know the meaning of "constructive
 criticism" or how to express it other than by being downright nasty.
 
 And, what the hell is a "stereotypical Geocities screwup" ...gawd! what a
 highhanded comment! 
 
 I have seen some wonderful sites with beautiful graphics, obviously done by
 someone with a great deal of talent but also with some of the most
 appalling spelling mistakes and grammar...should we start on that next ?...
 I wonder if any of them were done by you folk...:)
   
 Singing...Oh Lord, it's hard to humble, when you're perfect in every
 way..... :)

I love what you said Kym and if I had more time (I am so busy...LOL), I would
love to add some more of my two cents...However, I am so glad that you said it
for me...Humility is VERY difficult for a lot of people...The ego is a VERY
powerful weapon...why don't we all just speak to people like we want to be
spoken to...
~ Criticize *constructively* ...this world would be a better place ~
