I usually view your comments as "slightly over critical advice", and try to listen to what you say without getting bothered that you usually reply with something negative, so no harm done.
Criticism is never a bad thing if it's done in the right way. You're usually pretty good at keeping it constructive.
Give me a few months to get used to the camera, and then you can be as wildly critical as you want, because there should be no reason for flaws in the pictures. Until then just try keep in mind that the shoots I've posted thus far (with the SLR) were all pretty spontaneous in nature, done having no location pre-planned, and taken with a camera that I've had for a little over a week now.
