Umm... I said I don't mind it if someone puts a low ranking on my images, lol. I've only had one person put a low ranking on one of my images (my first Terragen image in fact), and I immediately IM'd this person to thank them for their honset ranking. And he/she also explained in the comment many things that could be improved, and, in responding to my IM, offered to help further if they could. Which they did. BTW, that low ranking was immediately drowned out by a chorus of other, higher rankings. And so no, I'm not the victim of malicious flaming. I actually do want to know how many people out there find it annoying when others give low rankings. Also do people find it annoying when other people give out advice in comments? I mean, isn't that the reason that comments exist to be made in the first place? And so thanks, LornaW and pushinfaders, but I think there was some confusion there. =)
