Attack? Are you kidding me?
Apparently you are unfamiliar with the term I used. It is explained here, should you choose to read about it. To summarize:
An ad hominem (Latin for \"to the man\" or \"to the person\"), short for argumentum ad hominem, is a form of criticism directed at something about the person one is criticizing, rather than something (potentially, at least) independent of that person. When used inappropriately, it is a fallacy in which a claim or argument is dismissed on the basis of some irrelevant fact or supposition about the author or the person being criticized.
In this case, you responded to my points about passing collages off as photographs with sniping about what subjects I shoot, when that has zero relevance. (And is, furthermore, inaccurate. I took my first digital people photos in 2000, how about you?)

You\'re in here crying about my Photoshop use - which is a null and void point because it\'s MY work and I\'ll process/create it however I see fit.
If you actually read my previous post you would have noticed that I said specifically that you have every right to make whatever you want in Photoshop. But you do tend to do more reacting than reading.

Since when do YOU get to dictate how someone else creates their art or whether or not it is valid?
Since I learned how to see, read, and speak. Like everyone else.
And there\'s a strawman here, since I never said your art was \"invalid\". I said passing off collages as if they were captures is deceptive. Collages are art, and I\'ve said that from the very beginning.

Quite frankly, I do not care even a tiny bit what you think. Quit harassing me.
Yes, I can see how much you don\'t care by the frequency and vehemence of your replies.
I have not called you names and have been perfectly polite. You just don\'t like my viewpoint, but that doesn\'t constitute \"harrassment\". If you don\'t want to see my posts, you know what to do. Hiding from those who have different views is certainly a lot easier than responding to them.
