Mary,

No you are not doing anything wrong. I checked your post(s) and you average 29 per picture post, I think thats great, keep in mind that alot more look than post. As far as the looking I think that some are very cleaver with thier "captions" that cause more people to look. As far as the posting; I can only speak for myself when I say there are so many to look at that there is no way I can respond to all that I see. I choose to respond to the ones that are something I've done, something I want to do or something I'm interested in. Example, I looked at your table runner and I thought it was beautiful; honestly, but since I don't make table runners I didn't post anything but......I did look! I have time to look at all of them, that's my favorite part but I don't have time to post to all of them or even to post to "all" the ones that I would like to.Does that make sense?

No, don't take it personally. Are you posting them in the pictures pages? Because I usually respond unless there are already a dozen pages and I figure by then the poster has probably moved on to another project.

I have to say, I don't recognize your title. Do you have your settings so everyone can see you? Makes a difference. I don't often comment on photos, but I do print them off and put them in a notebook for future inspirations. Don't be discouraged. Keep at it, but check your settings.

I'm trying to figure out how to say "hello" for the first time! I've been reading the board and wanted to join you, but am very very computer illerate! I don't mean to take away from the subject at hand. SO, here are hugs to the one unhappy quilter!!!!

I've only posted a couple. I find this board is really for me, I learn so much here so I almost look at it as a class room, When I posted my one lol good baby quilt for CHD charity, I was my own best critic. It seemed odd actually looking at my work. I have even made a few very wonderful friends. So Mary would you like to be one of my friends? and many (((((hugs)))) by the way I am just a basic quilter, enjoy and have never made one of those far out ones that are show pieces (maybe someday lol) Stay with us. have a great day.

took me over an hour to find how to look at what you posted
--looked--they are all great --never posted just made comments--still learning how to use camera --then i will catch up with the quilts I made in last few yrs.

I read most topics posted but very seldom reply. Not that I don't "like" something but usually all I can add is another "fantastic or beautiful or ???". So don't feel hurt. Also, I am a newbie, very new to quilting and spend most of my time, reading and learning and soaking up all the knowledge I can from all the wonderful ladies and gentlemen that share.

That is too bad you feel that way! I don't think anyone intentionally would pass by your posts. Myself, sometimes I am trying to fly thru the board and don't have enough time to make all the comments I'd like to. Keep posting, we love seeing everyone's creations!
