My policy, too.  If I do criticize a photo it's only if I feel that I 
can offer a constructive alternative.  My own knowledge of photography 
is very limited compared to most list members, and I feel that it's best 
to let someone more qualified nit-pick.  On the other hand, I really 
don't mind at all if someone calls one of my photographs "poop" and 
leaves it at that.
