    I almost always read the comments- It annoys me too, that people will ask the same questions over and over- and sometimes the answer to the question is in the original post! So they didn't even read that!

    If it is a thread I am interested in, I will read through it for tips. If it is picture of a project, I will post the first thought that comes to mind. (sometimes I just want to type smile, if a quilt makes me smile) Everyone always has such nice things to show.

    If it is a post asking for an opinion, I can answer without reading everyone else's opinion. If it is a question, like others, I read to see if it was answered. But oftentimes, it is a question I don't feel qualified to answer. I did read all 3 pages of this thread, however, as I was curious about others answers. In the picture forum I just look at the pictures, unless I'm hoping there is more info on the quilt.

    Unless it is a picture where I just add my oohs and aahs I try to read all the comments.

    I try to read everything first. I seldom offer advice, often will give my opinion, sometimes give a suggestion if I am really comfortable with the topic. But I do learn a lot by reading, and sometimes a topic takes a very interesting turn!
