This sounds great to me. Likes and dislikes are a completely personal
matter. However, to imply that because you (or I) do not like something, it
is "bad", is another matter entirely. I enjoy reading comments on
photographs that are posted. Having people express their likes and dislikes,
and, most importantly, why, is a great way to learn more about visual
communication.
