I prefer public critiques. This is supposedly an art site. If art critique doesn't belong here, I don't know what does. hey, that was well said! Anton, thank you :) yeah, I don't think a lot of people do realize what that box says. Being the "crusading" sort, though, maybe I can remind 'em? Over the last few years, the forums have gone from being fun, silly places to being serious, on into racous and ugly, and now have begun to "mature" into something better than they were when the place first started (and this is most especially true of this one). Even this last septemeber wasn't all that bad (though november sucked a bit), and the last big blowup was actually really calm, all things considered. Time to take some of that growth into the rest of the site. While this once was an artists community, it is now an Art Community, which means the focus is no longer on the people, but on the work. And there are all these other sites out there, many of whom condemn renderosity as some sort of pisswater that doesn't give a damn about talent and embraces the skin of the moment. Well, I disagree. Strongly. And, since I'm not able to do much else, lol, I figure I'll do my part this way. It won't mean diddly in the long run, but it will certainly make me feel like I'm contributing to the community more, and hell, it might help some others. Might hurt a few too. But as that crazy man who has such great taste in clothing said in a movie many moons ago: you can make an omelet without breaking a few eggs. Bwahahahahahahahahaha

thou and I, my friend, can, in the most flunkey world, make, each of us, one non-flunkey, one hero, if we like: that will be two heroes to begin with. (Carlyle)
