i hope i don't offend anyone when i speak frankly for i do so without a desire to hurt. i'm one of those who are known or notorious for 10+10 comment- to me it's not an empty comment. i usually spend a lot of time looking at all challenge entries, often, more than once, to determine those i'd give 10+10 to. of course, matters like this are often subjective but i vote with a clear conscience and when i say 10+10 it means i'm proud to let it be known that i think you did an outstanding job.

my 2nd entry in the keep sbf clean challenge i'm hosting - only challenge members who post a page can vote; this page will be removed if it wins...
- images from microsoft office clipart collection. i don't know why i never thought of using them before for scrapping. i use them often for word and powerpoint presentation have you tried them?

I comment on pages first and often don't vote in a challenge till much later so I rarely comment with 10+10 as I just don't have the time and I always vote/give points on the pages merit not who it is done by.. to be honest I would really like comments to perhaps offer advise of any improvements to my work but I guess most people would take that as a critism?!!

Thank you for your honesty Kate. Being still fairly new under a year, I have learned a lot from reading the pages in this challenge. I try and vote everyday because there is so much talent here. And since I have become more active, I have really enjoyed the joy and friendship that SBF has brought to me. I agree that the comments mean more than just votes. Thank you all!

very well stated. I do find some people just say 10+10 blindly. why say it if you don't do it. I do know your 10+10 is real.

Sometimes I write 10cp and sometimes I don't, just depends on how much time I have, but most likely if I comment, I vote unless it is a challenge like this one that only challenge members can vote.
Most of the pages in this challenge are very thought provoking and I appreciate the work everyone has put into their wonderful pages.

Great page Kate...when I write 10+10cp it is because to me the page is outstanding too. To me, most pages are......time, effort and work go into the scraps.......

great words of wisdom. i am learning a lot from these pages. i usually go through the list of the most recent scrap uploads as well as scraps in groups and view, vote, and comment and don't do challenge points until later, that is why i dont do 10+10. i like to look at all of the great work that's out there, not just who's on my friends list. i also believe that comments are better than points
