Do you think this is weird?

[nikkiARNGwife]

You know how you have messages in your gallery that say like "so and so added your photo "blah blah" to their favorites?" Well not here but at another gallery I had someone add like 25 of my pages to their favorites but they never commented on any of them. I just thought that was a little strange.

[amystoffel]

I would just take it as a compliment :) it is a bit wierd, but I get that sometimes too...not 25...... :)

[nikkiARNGwife]

Yeah I was flattered but just thought it a little different I guess.

[amystoffel]

Your just THAT awesome!!!! ;)

[nikkiARNGwife]

lol well so are you :) I've got lots of your pages in my favorites :)

[lovely1m]

Sometimes when I see a LO I love, I quickly add it to my favorites and forget all about commenting on it. Then later I am like, jeez, how did I not comment on that. She could also be waiting for a time when she has the time to sit down and comment fully.

[Nikki Epperson]

That is alot of pages for no comments, but like Amy said, it would be a compliment. lol, I'd expect at least 1 comment. :D

[Mandy]

A lot of times I add pages to my favorites just for inspiration. I like to go back when I have no mojo and look thru my faves and get some ideas. Maybe that's what she's doing.

[nikkiARNGwife]

Yeah..she only has one page posted so I figured she was a newbie looking for ideas.

[Priscilla]

at least so "into my favs"

lol

[rochelle789]

I don't think it's necessarily weird. Maybe she just really loves your pages and wants easy access to them for future inspiration, but isn't one to comment much.

[Kim]

Flattering, but yeah, weird. :blink:

[Paula]

Think of it like this - they loved your work so much it made them speechless! LOL

heehee i like that one!

[iJenny]

I think what probably happened was that she saw your LOTW on the blog, went to your gallery and just started trolling your amazing gallery for inspiration. I've done that a few times with LO artists I love. I'll just go through their gallery page by page and add favorite after favorite. I *try* to comment on LOs I add to my faves, but I can't always do that.

:)

[~Julie~]

LOL Good way to look at it Paula!! I would be flattered too.

[Nettio]

I think there are way too many rules and expectations when it comes to praise. :D I've added layouts to my favorites before without leaving praise. Sometimes I just like to browse the galleries without the expectation of having to leave comments. I wouldn't add 25 layouts without leaving a comment but it sounds like she is probably a new scrapper and I know when I was just starting out, I wasn't comfortable leaving praise since I didn't know how the whole system worked. Really, I think having layouts added to someone's favorites says a whole lot more than a few words they could have left for you. :thumbup:

[Jennifer]

Wow, that's awesome! Kinda odd that she didn't leave a single comment, but if she's a newbie, she may just not know. :)

[ditzyscrap]

When you think about it...she could be the type of person that doesn't post much and ALSO not realize that it tells you when a layout is added to their faves. If a layout of hers has never been added to someone's favorites, she would have no way of knowing that.

So is it weird? Not really...I've done it before in other galleries.

[judet]

I think I did that when I was just starting out - didn't realise it sent a message and felt like such a newbie that I didn't feel I was qualified to comment on a great page. Took me a while to get enough confidence to say I liked something.

Definitely a huge compliment though!

[mlewis]

If I add a page to my favorites, I always try to comment!

[Jennilyn]

I get a lot of my layouts added to people favorites at MSA. Of course, some of the other sites I post to don't have that type of thing. And yeah, there's a few people at MSA who add my layouts to their favorites but never comment.

[rachaelsscraps]

I've added some layouts to my favorites, but was too shy to comment! LOL! But I don't think I'd add 25 of them without leaving some sort of comment (read as a reason as to why I added them in the first place!) :)

I admire so many layouts that I see, and some of them have like 10 comments already, so I personally like to comment on those that only have a couple- some that have none.... kwim? Spreading the love, I guess! :p

I agree. I think getting a "your page has been added to so-n-so's faves" is praise in itself... although I guess I don't really know, since no one's ever added me to their faves :p

[melmos75]

I always try to comment if I am saving to my favorites, especially if they can see that I added to favs.

[Emmy]

not weird.....a newbie that hadn't seen your gallery before and wanted to fave a lot of your layouts, that's probably all there is to it. There are a lot more people in the online community than are actually visible via posting - and like above, she probably doesn't know you get a notice.

[twentytinytoes]

haha that happened to me at msa the other day I went to my gallery and was like what the heck 35 messages, it was all one girl adding my pages to her faves. No comments either Probably the same girl!

[Andrea Gourley]

Take it as a compliment. There is one girl in another forum who must have hundreds of my cards in her favourites folder but I've never recieved a comment from her. It's nice to think someone likes my stuff that much :)
