I really wish manipping did incite such enthusiasm around here. No offense to anyone, because everyone's great in their own way but very few people put the level of effort into their manips that you and a few others do. I think I might be one of the few people out there that sees it as an art form.

Some people just want to make something quick to get off to so you can't blame them there. Plus skill level is HUGE, I know a lot about digital art programs and PS so I can get around it really easily and so less effort is needed compared to someone who knows little about art programs.
I think most people are just to scared to experiment in their manips which leads to little innovation or creativity and we end up with a flood of uninspired empty eyes and spirals, which I too sometimes end up doing since it's easy and people tend to like them. The reason I like to make manips is because they let me play around in photoshop in ways I usually would never do and thus I learn a bunch of techniques, plus they are really quick and easy compared to actually drawing.
