   That's why you have to be a regular poster: you'll build a base of people that tend to check out your shots, or even search them out, regardless of the thumbnail. Just be glad that Nexus has chosen to have a darkish background. Flickr is total white, which is awful for most screenshots.
   
   I do think the giants look sympathetic. Their faces have character, you can't deny that.

   @Midhras - agreed re: dark shots. The only problem with dark shots is that the way the Nexus generates thumbnails, pretty much no one ends up clicking on them, much less viewing them full-size.
   
   @Njorunn, they actually look a bit like my dad as well. Doesn't bode well for my future :-)

   I myself absolutely love darker shots. I don't mind having to take a couple moments more to SEE what is going on. I love how the giant is defined by the light of the fire, both in silhouette and by bringing out it's features, ever so subtly. Great shot anaphiel. I envy your skills for finding images that are entirely original and perfectly executed.

   Oh my god... Your screenshot just made me realize that giants look a lot like a friends dad, profile-wise. Ha ha! Endorsed!
