Colin, I don't have any problem with a "nice shot" or "well done" when it's meant like this. I've got quite a few "very nice" comments from you, and I'm proud of every single one. I would have a problem if these comments were made just because it's forum policy, not because the commenter actually likes the picture.
I do not expect in-depth comments from everyone who looks at a picture. I know this takes a lot of time (well it does for me, anyway). Even with the relatively small amount of posts here, it would be impossible for me to do that, so I don't expect it from others.
About the "no-time" issue: For me it is one. Maybe I'm not very organized... My problem is mainly that I can't see "unread articles" like, for example, in a news browser. If I visit here and comment on one post, and come back later, I just see "posts since last visit" but not the posts that had been there earlier already. With an "unread posts" feature it would be much easier to catch up...
One last thing: I think it's a good thing to have a discussion like this. I feel quite comfortable with this thread.
