I read this thread again because I was curious why it had become so long. It's been five years since I interacted with the thread, and I hardly ever visit the User Showcase (I'm too busy writing music, and what I do is highly specific).

One topic that was only mentioned early in the thread is the suggestion of sending a PM. I have always briefly answered a PM but in it, I strongly encourage the poster to make a public post where I will comment more thoroughly, and others can comment as well. I think everyone should have the opportunity to see any question or comment and whatever discussion follows so we all can learn. Now, I'm not sure how well that applies specifically to the User Showcase area, but I would think that practice could be helpful.
