Just a clarification on what I meant Rambo - I merely meant that you and a few of the others work is missed - that's all - but I wasn't insinuating anything negative - I completely get that the thumbnail problem sucks. We work hard and tedious to set up these shots, so why shoot 4 good shots, only to have the first 3 shots "repeats" of the fourth as far as the thumbnails go.

I also agree with M1-General that it's supposed to be fun & you participate when you can, and no-one should feel forced to submit some quotta # of pics - wasn't trying to "call anyone out", it was actually meant as the opposite - a compliment of sorts, because I just missed seeing your work and a few other members work more often is all.

We are all artist here and it's just more fun to see the art of 40-50 different points of view every week or so instead of 10-12 different takes on G.I. Joe per week. The bigger the pool of talent, the more we can inspire each other to keep getting better and the more different things we get to see to brighten our days.

Lastly, I agree with Snakeling that I have been treated the best here, as far as Joe-sites are concerned - and that I am also unaware (but regrettful) of any drama here - I, like others may make a jokey comment on a pic now & then, but I always mean it in good fun.

Well, that's my 22 cents - summary AND essay
