:D I agree Randy, That reminds me of something Nick Lenz said: ""We all judge as we enjoy or do not enjoy."

As the introduction in the first link says, Penjing is about more than just the tree[s] though and even the criteria for judging the tree differ from bonsai.

One version of the 'Rules of Penjing' is:

Penjing rule #1: Smile! Penjing is an art and a hobby to be enjoyed. When you smile, your mind opens up, you create, and you enjoy!

Penjing rule #2: Don't let anyone make up anymore rules!

Obviously I am kidding about these two but as you have mentioned before enjoying yourself is important, :)

I am glad you enjoyed [some of ;)] them. :D
