Even I can (usually) manage to put out constructive criticism without sounding like a belligerent drunk at a strip club.

.... I almost spat my drink on my monitor when reading that comparison LMAO

Ohki, I am pleased to be able to amuse.

When our fan-made Star Trek series, Hidden Frontier, was in active production, we used to receive attacks from a "professional" standin that he claimed were intended as constructive criticism.  While many of his observations were not unjustified (we were, after all, a bunch of amateurs having fun), his method of delivering them were entirely unjustified.  And some of his suggestions, like hiring professionals to replace all of us, were not only impractical, but also missing the point that WE wanted to be the ones having fun.

Not that you need my permission, but keep on doing what you have done so well for so many years.  As for La Femme, I lack the discerning eye to pick out the flaws that better artists have commented on, so she has never disappointed me.  I can't complain about what I don't notice.  :-)
