It's called jealousy... Their work ain't good enough to ever get published. 8)

And a lack of understanding. I love (sarcasm) people who bash other people's work because they don't get it, or the subject doesn't interest them.

I really don't care for portrait work or people shots in general, so I don't look at them. If I do accidentally click on one I'll probably pass it over and click on, but if it is exquisite I'll notice. But everything from poor to simply great looks the same to me, so I move on. Why the hell would I bash someone's portrait in this case? That would be senseless.

But for someone to basically say "This picture sucks because I don't like cars" is just plain silly.

Needless to say, though: "Well look at him now."

typical...

ha [H]ard|Forums .... oh man, what nerds ... I got banned after 1 post there lol

some guys car had a chip in the paint and I replied "uh oh .. better get maco"

it was either that or my user name ..... "efyouseakaay"

oh yeah ... I thought those pictures were great, it was probly just another know-it-all 15 year old photographer thinking he knew what he was talkin about

oooo I really like this pic from the pits with the gas waves ... Ive got a poster from the '86 Long Beach Grand Prix exactly like that but with the Marborlo[Sp?] car
... hell yes, a couple more weeks till the LBGP!!!!! then I can take pics of these cars tooooooo

"The pictures are great even though I don't like cars." :P

I agree! I don't much like cars, but that one... It still wows me.

I suppose a certain amount of good-natured rivalry between the various forums (fora?) is understandable. What I don't understand is how or why these things sometimes turn so personal. The referenced thread is not a particularly good example of that; this is nothing more than sniveling by one or more people who are pretty clueless about what it takes to get good action photos.

Here’s a message for those guys:

When ‘our guy’ gets his Mk II, he’s going to be just that much better than you unfortunates are already.

I love it when the home team wins. :P :P

Thos.

You know, those senior moments are happening to me more often now, so I can't tell you what I had for dinner last week, but I do remember a little bit of my 9th-grade Latin. And if we are going there, the plural of forum would be fori, since forum would be a masculine, and the endings would be um, i, o, um, o; i, orum, is, os, is.

I think - but I could be wrong about that, too. Please don't tell Father Carboy (God rest his soul), or I will have to write it out 300 times before I can go home for the day.

sum, es, est, sumus, estis, sunt

That's the extent of what I retained. Wish I'd taken Spanish. At least I'd be able to order in Mexican restaurants now.

Well, my choice would have been German, but in those days the Jesuits didn't give you a choice - it was Latin, plus possibly Greek, and then another language choice in the 11th grade. But I bailed and went to public school, where my one year of Jesuit Latin let me coast through Latin 2 and 3. In public school, though, we did do a production of "West Side Story" in Latin that made the local papers.
