Quote - Ego trips, aren't they wonderful? ;)
I must be missing something though, I thought the point was to comment on the images in the gallery but not by a private email or PM? I dont need someone to tell me how to fix my images, this is why I didn't bother. I do art that please me, not someone else. Im not a Poser tech or geek, I don't need someone to write me a five page comment on how to fix my images if you do, then good luck.
I doubt this will last long people's ego's get bruised too easily by the sound of these complaint threads it's already starting to happen.
Yes, you're missing the whole picture.
1) The initiator of this thread is complaining about somebody having sent her message saying her work is 'a waste of space', and that by most people's values, is way too harsh and non-constructive. This complaint is righteous and is supported by the Forum moderator, and definitely not of ego trips.
2) Some people would like to have their works critiqued (in constructive ways, of course), that's why they join the critique group. Nobody is asking somebody else to 'write them a five page comment on how to fix their images' like you mentioned. So you're missing the points and then comment here base on your biased perception of others' messages.
As to how long the critique group will last, I don't know. Even though I'm not in the group, I wish them all the best, and hopefully the group will evolve and improve and last long.
