Well, the problem is, we don't want to discourage what could one day
become a decent artist... on the other hand, yes, there are some that
really do need a _lot_ of work.

The main problem, however, is the people who clutter up the files
section with pictures of girls that are not Jim's characters, or with
pictures of their own characters. The number was small, admittedly,
so far... and for some odd reason, all in the 'Fan Art' section...

And with good reason. A while back, Yahoo took away the ability to
view pics in 'PHOTOS' at full size, and made it a 'Premium' member
ability only... so if the Photos section makes a pic smaller, all
us 'free' members are screwed. Also, you have to be careful with
settings when you upload a pic, or you give Yahoo ownership of it,
and the right to sell prints of the pic.

Oh yes, Jim's polls are always good... others, however, have been
pathetic, ridiculous, and just overall useless. It's as if they're
not given any thought at all.
