Wrong. Hell will indeed be hot for me if despite my own collection I can't read this without yielding to envy. I cast my vote precisely because these bulk pictures at the one hand add very little in terms of hone information or aesthetics, yet on the other easily incite all sort of unpleasantness such as, yes, greed and envy. Let's face it: were we to qualify the posting of such pictures with one word, 'boasting' would not be a bad choice.

Isn't it similar to exchanging aerial pictures of the Alte Pinakothek, the Louvre, the Prado and the like, instead of devoting our time to admiring Tintoretto's Venus, Leonardo's Mona Lisa, Goya's Maja desnuda? Or indeed let others surprise us with lesser known masterpieces from modest collections?

But I repeat myself. Again.
