if all you're gonna say to describe a screenshot is "nice atmosphere," dig a little deeper into your well of feedback and criticism

useless comments are useless to a developer. it's pointless to say "nice atmosphere" just because somebody tinted the screen grey. to other responders: a lack of comments on rmn is a problem too, but it's not the same problem
"Looks good" doubles as positive reinforcement and a free gamepage bump. I have no problem with that.
Maybe my standards are too low.

They're useless as criticism; they're not useless to indie devs making little games who might appreciate a morale boost & a little reassurance that someone enjoyed their game! Not everyone on this site is a dev :P It seems fine if someone wants to voice a quick thought without going Ebert on it, y'know?

Y-yeah, but it's a progressive thing. It's the kind of thing where you can't effectively solve the one problem until you've dealt with the first. Because it's one thing to leave pointless comments, but nobody's going to leave meaningful comments if nobody's commenting.

This site lives on pointless comments. If there were no pointless comments the site would be bare.
Not everything needs to be deep feedback. A nice comment can make a developers day. They don't always need some long written review about every pixel. Someone doesn't always have time to write that stuff either. Just take a compliment, sheesh.
That said, it is nice for devs to get some feedback on their images or even gamepage. So let's resolve to give a bit of column A and B - point out the positives but also give some feedback to help each other grow! X3
If I got something out of it, I would post feedback.

The joy of helping a fellow game developer! Also you get points for reviews..!
