I know I have no say in a debate, that's probably finished by now, but I just wanted to say that on this website, most of the images I personally dislike are the photo montage ones. On most of them the photoshop quality is, quite frankly, shit. But that doesn't mean that there are not peope out there who like them.
When it comes to artwork, if I have any negative thoughts on it, I usually keep them to myself. I'll only say something negative about someone's work if I feel it absolutley neccicary. For example, one time, someone took a screenshot from a popular game, edited it in MS paint, probably only took them about 20 seconds, drew a pair of tits on it, and uploaded it to a website (not this one, in case you were wondering).
If it is clear that the artist spent some time and effort into making it, even if I hate it, I won't say anything negative.
Pretty much, in short what I'm saying is I think it was wrong of those people who complained about the images, and I'm not saying you should do it, but I think they should feel what it's like to have something that they've put time and effort into that they've posted on the web, taken down, only because there were some wankers out there who didn't like it.
There, I've had my say, and now, I'm going to stop before I get myself any more riled up.
btw, I almost forgot. I like this picture story. It's well written.
