Such as my skills are, I'd answer in the affirmative.
I've seen a lot of great, inspiring work from people here and stuff from out there brought back and shared. Conversely I've seen lots of bad work and the many crits threads have helped frame my own processes and reviewing.
I guess the most inspiring thing is seeing the improvement and development in others - I won't name names, but I've witnessed some people start off with very little capability and come up with great pieces of work over the years, blossoming into full portfolios.
In the old, caged-off days of H73 etc, I found links to really great works almost deflating . Not having access to the person behind the work elevated it beyond its worth.
QBN showed me that with a little conviction, a little self belief and a lot of hard work and polishing - anything's possible.

I love you, QBN.
