M2006 pt-1

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Great to see you are back, Tai. I was wondering just today what happened to you. There's been an issue with pixspot and linking the images to the forum. Sorry not sure how to resolve, I'm sure someone else has a work around.

Alex is right, pixspot doesn't work with the forum anymore.
(although I can see them and they look good, I felt sorry for Craig no getting the gold, I was cheering for him).

Check here for information on other hosting options other then pixspot.

workaround for viewing the images in the thread corectly with firefox is

install refcontrol extention (pix post is using hotlink protection to block images)

https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/m ... on=firefox

go to pixpost

http://www.pixspot.com/

right click on page and click "refcontrol options for this site" select "forge" click ok

now pixpost images will work for you on any forum you visit

or you can just type in about:config in the address bar...

Then find network.http.sendRefererHeader and set it to 0.

Now, your browser won't send the referer heading anymore and the website can't be sure that you haven't accessed the image from one of its pages.
