Here's what i think...I think that artists reserve the right to ask for advice or critique from other artists at their leisure. The beauty of the internet these days is that we have the freedom to communicate with artists who use our very same medium, and to share ideas, techniques, and most of all, our artwork. I also think that viewers reserve the right to make comments about the art. I don't think that these comments should be vulgar, or insensitive, but i think that if you don't like a piece you have the RIGHT to say something about it. The Museum doesn't have bouncers standing around making sure you don't have a negative opinion about a work, so why should we? Grow up.

Do you think that the master artists made every painting without some form of input from other people? Some of them did, yes, and the master Bryce users (aka Rochr) also make amazing artwork without a lot of input from outside sources.

I, for one, not being very good with Bryce technically and not being the most artistically brilliant person, like to gather the opinions and critiques that others have about the piece i'm currently working, thus helping me to improve what i'm doing to create a much better overall composition.

If none of these methods of improvement existed, we'd have a whole lotta galleries including not much more than spheres over water.
