Hugs! I am on dial up, so I dont gt to look at the pictures alot. It takes along time to load. Sometimes if I am at BFs I will get to look!
I think it depends on the times too, on a busy night the pages change so quick!!!!!!!

no, I look a lot but rarely comment, I'm at work so I don't have time to comment often.

Sending you some love and going to look at your pictures. I do think some people are a little higher profile and maybe get more responses. It is just the way life is. The rest of us are with you. ~smile~

Well definitely getting enough looks and responses in this post.

I went through my info and it seems for the 33 topics I started there were 3 topis that got more then a hundred responses. Many posts got 0-20 responses. None of the picture posts for quilts finnished got 100 or more responses.

I do not think it is anything you are doing. It could be that those responding to the pictures are picking and choosing which ones to respond to. I have not submitted any pictures of finished quilts or quilts in progress yet. One reason is that I do not have a camera that I can download them onto my computer and the other reason is that I do not have any quilts ready to show enough progress on. Keep pitching and maybe next time you will receive over 100 responses. Jeanniebelle

I've had that happen too! Maybe they need to put this into 2 categories. 1 for articles people just want you to read, and 2 for those that want a response!

Same here! Maybe I should at least put something. But saying the same thing over and over again, even though I do MEAN it, seems a bit redundant.

I Agree, Most of the time people have already said what I think and I hate to repost the same thing.

I think sometimes it has to do with the title of the post - something catchy or personal and the excitement is contagious. I had the most responses ever to a title that said "I did it! I meandered!" I also most always click on the ones that say my first, or my second quilt because I want to pass on some encouragement.

Woody, It is like a quilt guild here. There are clicks and if you belong to one you will get praises for your quilt. If you don't belong to one them there will be only a few comments.
This being said I bet I am ask to not post here any longer. I have heard a lot of my life the truth will set you free.

I personally wouldn't be offended about the number of posts, but be thrilled about the number of views. Draw your audience in with a creative topic posting. I get on here everyday and go through as many posts as I can, but will not reply to every one. But, don't stop posting, we still want to look at all you accomplish! Thanks for sharing with us!

I am very guilty of not responding but going in and looking at pictures of quilts. sometimes it just lack of time (dial/up network grrrrr) and things load very slowly. Don't feel bad, we all just love seeing quilts. hugs
