I think my message should have been perfectly clear, when read
in the context of my original post on this topic. Honest
comments (criticism) usually result in resentment directed at
the critics.
Bland, pat on the back, warm hugs types of comments do nothing
to improve performance, they just falsely increase self-esteem.
Real self-esteem comes when you've done something to earn it.
Nothing better can happen than finally hearing a harsh critic
say, "Well done!" All the warm hugs in the world can't compare
to that.
If honest commentary is unwelcome, then why bother to have
public commentary at all? The e-mail address with each PUG
entry should be enough invitation to comment. If folks aren't
sending you comments on your pictures, perhaps they find them
unworthy of comment. The term "pedestrian" comes to mind, along
with the word "un-inspiring".
