Thanks for your help, AgentSmith. But the post in question was pointing out her illustration exactly "as the third and fourth one down" which was undeniably the target. People should be more careful when they criticize without a good reason. Their reasons for this, in my opinion, were not even factual. Stormi didn't need to "jump to conclusions" when that particular post showed up. I am a real world artist too, and we have to go through some hellacious criticisms to get anywhere. So to say Stormi "blew up" for no reason doesn't even stand up. It was the lying and false accusations against her - and who wouldn't be angry about that? There is a sense of right and wrong that will get anybody's dander up, and lies are the strongest motivations for that. Stormi is a very nice, sweet, and caring person. All of this was just so unfair, and I believe she was the pure victim here. They keep saying here there was no way to tell who they were talking about on this thread. WRONG - more than just Stormi, or I could see it. There are others too. We are all saddened that Stormi is no longer in our little artist's circle. You need a new forum here on Renderosity. The Real World Artist's forum. Technical knowledge not necessarily required. I'm sure you are a very nice person, AgentSmith, you certainly seem like you are. The others are just plain heartless. They can pat themselves on their backs all they want to. Who cares... Oh, and it is true about the "artist's sensitivity" which makes our talent possible. Without it, we couldn't make our art. We should all take that into consideration before posting a comment on someone's illustration they have worked on very hard, with all of their soul and mind.
