The other thread was closed because some people felt that other people were being discourteous. And of course soon thereafter the thread was closed along with a threat of being banned.
I think that there is a big difference between being discourteous to an idea and being discourteous to a person. It is far different to call an idea "B.S." than it is to say to another person that "YOU" are full of "B.S.". (You hear it all of the time in congress. They will step up to the mike and say "My very dear friend, the congressman from wherever, has just advanced the most idiotic and stupid bill I have ever heard of.)
Regardless, I still think that the print size discussion has merit, and I return to my original point: the idea of selling larger prints for unproportionately higher prices than the added effort and cost to produce them seems counterproductive if people who wish to purchase prints would prefer larger prints.
That does not mean that I personally think people shouldn't sell their prints for whatever they want to sell them for. Rather, although I cannot prove it, I think people would sell more prints if they offered their prints at the same price for all sizes and let the customer determine what size they need for their particular application.
