Janice. I am new to this site, but not new to photography or to constructive criticism, which I love to give. I really believe that a good critique of the technical and/or aesthetic merits and faults of an image can be a great learning experience. I also have hated being criticized in the past until I realized they were right.

To avoid repeating much of what has been said above, I agree that any artist needs to develop a thick skin and an open mind. Try to ignore the style in which the constructive criticism (CC) is given and look for the essence that can help you improve your work. I have learned a tremendous amount from CC in the past few years, and I though I knew everything before that. I was so wrong.

Thank you for your input. I was not talking about constructive criticism though. I was talking about rudeness, name calling and picking at each other until one or both are angry.

Rudeness, name calling and picking at each other until one or both are angry seems to be an unavoidable characteristic of the Internet, where one is anonymous. Very few would be such a**holes if they had to address you face to face. These people are cowards at best.

I contacted bobmielke and we agreed to call a truce. And I apologized for not responding better than I did.

Jim, I think it has been around a little longer than that. 2011 is volume 87. That should put the starting date somewhere around 1924.

Padre, you're absolutely correct. I just remembered looking at this month's issue, which has short AH retrospective, and the earliest covers they showed are from the 1940s. But their website says 1925. And I didn't realize it was published by the Arizona Department of Transportation. One of the few government-sponsored efforts that I approve of. All Good.
