I guess I have been the exception to the rule. Almost everything I have posted in the gallery was met with some sort of critique. Mostly from the same people, but always honest critiques of the art I presented. I don't have an ego. I am not hurt if someone gives me an honest answer to my questions. But I think there too, I am the exception. Most people want to receive praise if they do something. Hardly anyone wants to be told the truth.
On other forums that I used to frequent (one of my other hobbies was home recording), the standard was "if you want praise for your work, show it to your mom. If you want the truth, post it here."
I don't see that here in most cases, but that's alright. CG is a different breed.
If I had a nickle for ever time a woman told me to get lost, I could buy Manhattan.
