John - The quote function on Statue Marvels is a necessary evil. In a perfect world, I'd love if folks would delete the pics from the quotes. There is nothing more annoying than when someone posts a GIANT image (or sometimes several) & then multiple posters quote the image(s) over & over! We "get" it already! Other than that, I don't mind quotes. It makes it much easier to follow long running conversations. What I try to do when quoting is to delete the "fat" and only use that which I am responding. Unfortunately, most people don't think about the economy of quoting & just quote it all.************* personally I LOVE the quote function. For me, it makes it so much easier to follow the conversation and to know who is responding to whom. nor do I mind the reposting of pictures either (unless it takes up your bandwidth or something). to each his own I guess edit,..this is actually a good example of what I mean,.. someone would have to do some serious digging to find this particular line of conversation within this thread because, though I included your quote, I didn't add your name. •• Yet I was able to follow the "conversation" without effort, as I expect anybody else with a few working brain cells could, too. As opposed to post after post of the same image, the same comments, with clever responses like "Yeah!" or "Right on!" that don't even tell us WHICH part of the quote is being referenced.
