[Leica] Critiques

Tina et al,
I've been wondering about this too: same experience as Tina and others here I suspect. 

So I'd like to make a proposal:
If you have an image that you really want critiqued here or is something you believe is an excellent image that you think especially good, put "IMG:" as the start of your subject line.

So I have to admit that I struggle with the number of posts in our forum. When I went away for 8 days a bit ago I came back to over 500 emails in the LUG. No way I could possibly open each one and then click on many links to images. Then open related responses to see if someone provided some critique that I may also be able to learn from. Facebook lets you see the image and click "like". One click, not hundreds. 

So we use OT, FF, and FS in our subject lines. Can we consider using IMG for those special images we are particularly proud of or need help with? If there are other associated images say so and include a link or post them in a non-IMG post.  But I would be MUCH more likely to look at an IMG email knowing it meant something special to the poster. 

Just an idea... Curious as to others' thoughts about this.  
Thanks,
Bob
