I think a thanks is in order...

[Cristina Eenkhoorn]

I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who has commented, or even just viewed, my pictures. I don't individually thank everyone, since I don't know if everyone would even notice that I have thanked them or responded to them, but I did want to make a point of thanking you all. Your critiques (of which I wish there were more of, lol) and comments are so appreciated and encouraging. So thank you!! You all are so supportive and inspirational!!

No thanks necessary :)

Anytime you want to respond to a comment, click on the blue reply then make your comment and click post reply. That person will get a notification.

@timandelke I've never received a notification (like in my email) when someone has responded to me. I've only received notifications if someone has commented on one of my photos or one a discussion I may have started. The only time I know someone has responded to me regarding one of their photos is when I check the "Notifications" bubble at the top of the page.

@ceenkhoorn The notifications of replies are found by clicking the square "balloons" next to the blog on the bar at the top of the page. if you have a new notification, the balloons are black.

@weshook I didn't realize the balloons turn black! I wish I got an email notification for replies too, like I do for comments.

[weslyn hoekstra]

@ceenkhoorn maybe someday, but I spend enough time here that I see the balloons more than my email. ;o)

@weshook Haha! I know what you mean. I've been so addicted to this site lately, even if I haven't uploaded my own photo for that day yet. There are so many talented people here, and it's such an honor to be part of such a great group, and to have my photos viewed by everyone.
