If you haven't seen this line of comics before, they're worth a look...

Thanks for sharing. I really get a kick out of these cartoons. What makes them funny is how real they are!!

well, I read this kind of rule sometime right here before and it's exactly what I thought: I hope nobody will think this the other way around... I mean, I feel like I am able to say sg on maybe 1 percent of the images here at NPN, therefore saying nothing to 99%!!!

but it's the lack of time! the time! nothing else!

Yeah, but youve gotta be cruel to be kind...

Great cartoons. Definitely funny. Not appropriate with photo critiquing. If no comments were offered but "nice" comments, eventually the only people who posted images for critique here would be those who needed a pat on the back. While I don't think you have to be cruel, you have to be real.

I completely agree, critiques are very necessary, and a honest critique is one of the most valuable learning tools in photography. That said... This was a joke, I just thought it was funny
