My take on this subject. I agree with some that said, sure it's nice to see "Great Work"..but it's nicer when there's more to the line, such as good job on the lights, or the textures, etc. The same goes with the "constructive critism".."I think maybe if you tried this or that..". I like your work is much different from I don't like your work. And it's not a thing about "if it's good for the goose"...I don't like your work, doesn't do anything. Each and everyone of us has our own tastes in what we like in art. If we posted "I don't like your work" on the pieces that we didn't like, guess what folks (more for shonner). Each of our pieces would have at LEAST several of those comments. We all know there are folks out there that don't like our work, but it's nice to know that somewhere in out there amoung the 100.000's of peoples, someone likes what you are doing. I think maybe Shonner needs to learn the difference between constructive and destructive. Did it ever occur to you to just say "Hun, I think you got this style down pat..maybe it's time to open your wings and try something new, I bet you would be good at it..etc etc etc" Get it yet? MUCH better than calling it Walmart Crap. Some people are just afraid to try something new, hanging on to "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" attitude. Constructive encouragement usually helps break them out of that mold. Just my 2 cents
