This is a repost:

 Okay I decided to start this game to see how many ways we can tell someone we like their image or content. So, many people are not wanting to see generic comments. While others (Like me) minds are going blank trying to think of different ways to say they like someone's image or content without sounding generic. Please post one comment to each post.

I'll start :

I love how you captured that picture.

I wink at them and pinch their butt.
Tiffany G. Jun 8, 2008, 9:26pm EDT
your pictures leave me speechless
Tiffany G. Jun 8, 2008, 9:26pm EDT
lol Rob..
Karen F. Jun 8, 2008, 9:49pm EDT

I am left speachless. The vision had moved into the moon's eye.
Rob has me laughing!
What a lovely flower~
I too am running out of creative ways to say I like it!

If someone has a problem with "I like it," then I won't bother commenting on their items again.
Vikki M. Jun 8, 2008, 10:04pm EDT
I'm feeling a little unloved because I never got a pinch! :( haha
CyberGwen ! Jun 8, 2008, 10:25pm EDT
Pinch me and die, Rob! (and it isn't like I can't catch you!) LOL!

I just try to comment on what I like as best as I can:)
Dawne Joy Jun 8, 2008, 10:26pm EDT
haha Rob!

Just actually read it, and you'll think of something!
Danielle P. Jun 8, 2008, 10:26pm EDT
These answers are too funny. Rob is hysterical.

I comment the best I can too. Sometimes my mind goes blank but I do my best.
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jun 8, 2008, 10:36pm EDT
You've worded this very well, Sandy. Excellent word choices.

thanks for posting to It's 3X the points, 3X the rewards!

Your article is a breath of fresh air and a bright beacon in a sea of mediocrity. It has warmed the shackles of my heart and made me a better person for having read it.
Amy H. Jun 8, 2008, 11:34pm EDT
Here is the best one yet:
Thank you for submitting your content to:
The group: We Comment Back
Sandy (back in Ohio...blah!) Jun 8, 2008, 11:45pm EDT
Oh my!! I do love the comments!!!

Rob,
You better watch it. Somebody just might pinch back. Not me thou....Lol.
Sandy (back in Ohio...blah!) Jun 8, 2008, 11:48pm EDT
Marsha,

I am asking about the pictures and content you really like. People ask for other ways instead of the same old. I like your picture. I figure if I started this thread it might give some other people ideas on what to say. Or another way to say they like the content. I am not trying to put words in anyone mouth. As I am encouraging people to say what they want. But trying to give other ways to say things. Where did you get the idea that someone is trying to get you to say something you don't want? I never said that. Not once.
Phyllis R. Jun 9, 2008, 12:07am EDT
Great Article Sandy, - some "Food for Thought"!!! LOL

I love your above comment, - I was wondering where that came from too!!

Will check back later for additional comments....may need to 'borrow' some one day!! (HeeHee)
Ang, inspired by good, G. Jun 9, 2008, 12:23am EDT
Rob sure knows how to get the crowd going doesn't here.

Amazing or astounding is a good one.
Marilyn M. Jun 9, 2008, 12:29am EDT
Hmmm. So they don't like: great picture, great capture. They hate, "thanks for sharing." (Even though you've just looked at 17 pictures of the same thing!) You can't please everyone.

How about: Interesting composition. Are those flowers in your yard? I'm sooooooo jealous! Hey, want to be my gardner?
Monica H. Jun 9, 2008, 1:56am EDT
I just comment whatever comes to my mind. People can't really control what kind of comment you leave.

How about, "This is the greatest article known to mankind."
Andrea "slackermom" R. Jun 9, 2008, 1:57am EDT
If someone likes my content they can always send me money. Or chocolate. Gifts speak louder than words.
Janna R. Jun 9, 2008, 2:02am EDT
I don't say anything unless I have something to say. Usually I look and don't leave any comment. I am probably not the greatest connection.

Personally, I'd rather have no comment than a generic cut-and-paste one.
Dave Sandborg Jun 9, 2008, 9:13am EDT
I'm with Janna, I'd rather have something well thought-out that indicates somebody actually looked at and thought about what I published rather than breezed through and copy/pasted something generic. A generic comment is like being told "have a nice day" by a fast food cashier. It's nice and all, but it really doesn't communicate anything and you don't get the sense they really mean it very much.
samantha b. Jun 9, 2008, 11:07am EDT
i am usually leaving generic comments, sorry! i don't mind the generic comments because at least ya'll commented on my content.

I like this.
strongthrufight E. Jun 9, 2008, 1:49pm EDT
this gathering frenzy has caused me to resort to generic comments...usually I try not too...lol Rob...I'm running out of words to say here's a comment anyway
Nana to Seven Cutiepies Jun 9, 2008, 2:30pm EDT
I am terrible with words as most people know, I just do the best I can. Thanks goodness for my group, it affords me to leave a little message and the usual

Thanks so much for posting this to
my group
Shannon W Jun 9, 2008, 2:45pm EDT
You took a lot of time to capture the moment in your picture. The time was well spent. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful image with me.
Kimber L. Jun 9, 2008, 2:59pm EDT
This is a great macro
Kimber L. Jun 9, 2008, 2:59pm EDT
I love the framing in this photo!
Kimber L. Jun 9, 2008, 2:59pm EDT
The colors are so vivid!
Kimber L. Jun 9, 2008, 2:59pm EDT
This piece was well written!
Kimber L. Jun 9, 2008, 2:59pm EDT
You are so talented
Leah A. Jun 9, 2008, 3:44pm EDT
That was very informative (only if it IS informative - lol!).
Leah A. Jun 9, 2008, 3:46pm EDT
I usually include something about a picture, so the person knows it isn't cut-and-paste like - those purple roses are beautiful.
Jennifer N. Jun 9, 2008, 3:47pm EDT
ROFLMBO @ Rob!
Terry M. Jun 9, 2008, 5:35pm EDT
A lot of times, I just say great write. As long as they know you are looking is all that is important
Doug H. Jun 9, 2008, 7:48pm EDT
If I've had enough caffeine recently, I may be able to leave something more than a generic comment. If I can't think of anything, though, I don't mind leaving something short and clichéd just to say "hi".
necee t. Jun 9, 2008, 8:13pm EDT
oh Sandy, this is a great article... super job... Blessings...
necee t. Jun 9, 2008, 8:13pm EDT
lol Rob
Sandy (back in Ohio...blah!) Jun 9, 2008, 8:45pm EDT
I love how you captured that pose
Sandy (back in Ohio...blah!) Jun 9, 2008, 8:46pm EDT
Your creativity is flowing
Sandy (back in Ohio...blah!) Jun 9, 2008, 8:46pm EDT
I love how the colors blend in together
Sandy (back in Ohio...blah!) Jun 9, 2008, 8:46pm EDT
Very scenic.....and beautiful
Sandy (back in Ohio...blah!) Jun 9, 2008, 8:47pm EDT
How di you get (the child or animal) to do that pose or sit still that long? It is really amazing.
Sandy (back in Ohio...blah!) Jun 9, 2008, 8:47pm EDT
Your capture of that (thing, person or place) is fabulous.
Sandy (back in Ohio...blah!) Jun 9, 2008, 8:48pm EDT
I enjoy reading your emails and look forward to them each day.
Curt L. Jun 9, 2008, 11:51pm EDT
You done good, kid!
Donna S. Jun 10, 2008, 6:44pm EDT
Hey Rob! ( bending over) pinch this! cool,wow, imagine that!
Jenna is around here somewhere s. Jun 11, 2008, 2:49am EDT
lol, rob...

I coment on so many photo's sometimes I have alot to say and sometimes I don't.

I think it's always nice to see that someone took the time to comment...even if it is a smile :)) or anything :)) everyone loves to been talked too :))


:))))))) :) :) I am famous for leaving a smile just to show I was there...
Jenna is around here somewhere s. Jun 11, 2008, 2:50am EDT
sorry for all the typos, that always happens to me when the page is still loading...
Sandy (back in Ohio...blah!) Jun 13, 2008, 2:42pm EDT
No worries about typo's. I do that alot and have to go back and fix them before i hit post. I am trying to type without looking at the keyboard. I don't think it is working to well.
Janie E. Jul 23, 2008, 5:55am EDT
Would you rather have generic comments or none at all??? Nuff said!!!
R B Jan 4, 2009, 6:55pm EST
A view is worth more than a comment. Now its the boring PIF PIF PIF. They can't even copy and paste all the words.
