Seven Wolves, we share the same kind of experience ;o) I never forgot my first render (Dork standing around silly in ugly clothes lit by ugly lights). I tried some things from the library, and ended up with another kind of ugly image. Then I found this community. And with all my practise in painting on paper and canvas I felt that I knew nothing after looking at the images around here. It took me a while to see that other people used other tools for their work. And I found the tutorials and some help by friendly users. That's what I call community! It means not that you have to give applause to every image - but comments should be polite and helpful. "get outside, you spend too much time on the computer" - this may be a kind of joke ("It's spring! Enjoy the sun and spend your time on the computer when it's raining!") because the image shows computerparts. But if it is a joke, one should be careful and make that clear. My friends sometimes send me mails:"You uploaded an image at 2.00 am??? You should go and get some sleep!" But: I know these people, I know they're making jokes - and at least: Those mails end with a smily or a line like "But the image is worth a sleepless night." Maybe the commenting person wanted to be ironic or funny (hope so), but I have a son who was a teenager a few years ago - and he was very thin-skinned. This community is open for "any audience", so it may be better to take a look before you leave childish comments about children's art.

I'm not always right, but my mistakes are more interesting!

And I am not strange, I am Limited Edition!
