    sometimes in searching for images, i tend to want to know how popular something is before ffffinding it.

    if i click on the image and see a long list of names underneath occasionally i become jaded to it and think maybe it's not as interesting as i previously thought. i wouldn't want to add something that everyone is adding just because it's the hip image of the day.

    i also tend to scan the names to see if anyone of interest may be there. i find myself scanniing for fluxism and jaline or other random qbn names that look familiar. if i see these names i may reconsider and add it anyway.

    i'm not always this snooty, mind you, just on occasion. often i add things i like regardless. often i like things that are purely aesthetic and not very unique or creative conceptually.

    • I am the same way. The problem is...I am also this way (sometimes) with certain things that are popular. Which is snooty.Jaline

    • that was the exact point of the post. sometimes when i see that 100 people have added the image i feel less interested in it7point34
