You all seem to misunderstand what I was trying to say. Sure, skills improve, but talent - the raw understanding of brick work, originality and creativity is something that is mostly pre-determined. I'm not saying there are no increases at all, just that generally these things people have or don't have.
A good idea is a good idea
A copy is a copy
A masterpiece is a masterpiece
I dont know how else to describe it in a way that makes more sense. People may have other opinions, but I expect the more mature members would understand better. I hope! :D
