My reply wasn't negative in any way. It was criticism.
If you ignore every reply that says that your drawing is stuff, you won't achieve anything.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make that look like that was directed at you. It wasn't.
My concern is that most members of this forum (Not necessarily you, Fragger!) will constantly berate and flame without ever mentioning what's
good about the work of others or providing any good feedback. Nothing discourages an artist like reading an entire page of "THIS IS stuff". When writing feedback, it's good to structure it like this;
-Positive comment (everything you like about it goes here)
-How to improve (criticism goes here)
-Positive comment (usually to the effect of "keep it up")
It's a good way to provide feedback without being too condescending. That's why we're here, isn't it? We're trying to help artists improve.
