In a shared, online learning environment, it's best to post early, respond to peers periodically, & take time to respond to those who responded to you (subscribe to your post) to answer any questions and to address issues that arise in the initial conversation. Art should inspire great conversations, even the difficult ones, and they need time to develop.
