Put it this way - are you more likely to go to a friends site, and explore all
the little things they've put there.. or go to someones site who you don't know
and do the same thing?
Then afterwards are you more likely to say nice things about the things you see
at a friends site because they are your friend? If you really want that sort of
feedback, then I guess the best way to go about it is to start contributing to
relevant newsgroups and *making* people know you through positive
communication. Okay - your last post wasn't a good start :) But I don't think
it will be held against you at all.
If something is *really* impressive it will blow people away no matter what - I
went to your site before and thought it was pretty cool.. but it didn't blow me
away because it wasn't finished, IIRC I commented to that extent and made some
suggestions?

You don't sound like the biggest jerk to me - just discouraged.. and that is
totally understandable. Also - your last post was totally off-topic for
lugnet.lego.direct, so don't be discouraged if it gets rated really quite low -
I'm setting followups to lugnet.people, as I think that's a better forum for
this?
Cheers,
