When I review an image I just post some comments about it in the form of how it makes me feel and banter on about anything it makes me think about.

I also leave a nice little caption of what I feel is a suitable description of the picture (In my own special way, of course).

Below is an example of a review I did of one of the enemies (aka Kevins) images yesterday.

Note that you probably need to see the image to know just what the hell I'm waffling on about, so here ya go:

*There is the sound of sizzling flesh.*

ARRRGGGHHHH! MY EYES!.....Ow....Okay, that was unpleasant. This image is so bright that it completely dazzled me (In the physical ‘ow my head’ sense, not the intimate ‘oh my gawd your beautiful’ context. That would just be gay). So much cheerful sunshine! Makes you happy to be alive. Thank you global warming!

Whilst we’re on the subject of happiness, I think it’s fairly obvious that you’re not too pleased in this picture....Ah, no wait I see what it is. You’re acting all tough in front of your men. I bet beneath that stony exterior beats a heart of gold…or at least silver. Diamond even. Hang on, I’ll just go and get a crowbar so I can find out. Maybe make a profit out of it.....

Appropriate Caption:

Cheer up! The birds are (most probably) singing and the sun is (definitely) shining. What’s that? You forgot your sunscreen? Oh dear.

Hope that helped anyone unsure of giving reviews on images.

The written word is the most powerful art form on the entire planet. Within it, one can communicate their deepest feelings, thoughts and beliefs on a far more emotionally sophisticated level than any painter, sculptor or musician could ever hope to achieve.
