I think we're all curious just how rare those actual critiques are. _________________ [url=http://starrust.com][img]http://starrust.com/images/linksout/starrust2.gif[/img][/url] |

Combination of two. "Cool! You should draw *some anime character I'd never heard of*!!!!!"

Yeah. What's up with that? Just because someone is really good at their specialty (you, for example, with realism) doesn't mean they specialize in everything, such as anime. I remember you once saying that you can't draw anime at all; neither can I. They should go find someone whose gallery is flooded with Inuyasha pics or whatnot.
My last 5 comments were all "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" until the page's margins were expanded and you couldn't even see the art without scrolling horizontally. I instantly delete those. My most commonly received comment, however, is always a quote from a cartoon. As if I hadn't heard that quote a million times before. <_< _________________ [url=http://starrust.com][img]http://starrust.com/images/linksout/starrust2.gif[/img][/url] |

I just assume those people put the same thing on everyone's gallery, hoping someone will take their request. Same with the people who write "NEAT! PLZ LOOK AT MAH ART!!!!!! ^___^"
I'm trying to afford summer tour season tickets and start a series of playing cards. No time for stupid anime characters. Unless they'll pay. I'll do anything for money. ^_^
(I probably could learn anime pretty quickly if I tried...just never had reason to try. Meh) _________________ "I care about people as much as I care about lawn furniture" - Dexter/Michael C. Hall |

Yeah, you'd think that your pic was an advertisement with all the 'plz look at my art!' comments. Surprisingly, my last comment was constructive critism. |

Yesterday I received about 10 comments from one person touring (the older half of) my FAC gallery. Every comment they left was to the tune of "Awesome *favs* " except one, which was "can you do a request? (email address)".
Guess which comment I deleted? I gave them a profile comment telling them (among other things) to check out our forums. _________________ Strata here: [url=http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/user/242293]Nanowrimo[/url] - [url=www.fanart-central.net/user-Stratadrake.php]FAC[/url] - [url=http://stratadrake.deviantart.com]dA[/url] - [url=www.furaffinity.net/user/Stratadrake/]FA[/url]

[quote]and start a series of playing cards[/quote] I hope to see more of the card series, they look good so far
comments!?! what are comments? in FACt, what are views. the last picture I posted here, I thought was a pretty sexy little number of ToniBo for Valentines day. I think it recieved about 50 views since then and 2 comments, the last was just something like "very nice." hey but I guess its better than nothing <_< _________________ 'It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession.

Gonna do some of the bigger names next, I think. Would probably generate more interest than the relatively obscure Mike M. _________________ "I care about people as much as I care about lawn furniture" - Dexter/Michael C. Hall |

The last comment I recieved was one on my picture of Audrey Hepburn. I was actually surprised at the number of comments that picture recieved. _________________ [url=http://dollyrockersinc.piczo.com][img]http://pic.piczo.com/img/i122379787_59088_3.gif[/img][/url] |

[quote="fallenangel (fallen)"] Combination of two. "Cool! You should draw *some anime character I'd never heard of*!!!!!" [/quote]
I get that too. So I immediately comment back saying, "who in hell's living f**k is that?"
I never get critiques. Ever. I so want them. But they never come. I'd settle for a half-intelligent reply. _________________ [img]http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y47/VR_Jay/Anti_Commecial_Banners_by_Nevar530.jpg[/img] [img]http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y47/VR_Jay/th_myvsweetkiss1xc.gif[/img]

O.o;;; what the hell am I supposed to think from that?? |

It should officially be renamed to 'critiques', instead of 'comments'. Or, another link called 'add critique' should be placed next to 'add comment', and that link should pop up a window where only constructive criticisms can be written.
*edited* my last comment was a request. I might do it. _________________ "edit : i luv james" - Layzcarter |

I clicked on the wrong button :/ I just got a quote from Harry Potter: "CONSTANT VIGILANCE." It got my attention ;)
I usually check on the art of people who commented as a courtesy, but sometimes... well, ya know. Some things I just don't know how to reply to. I think I saw a stick figure make out session once. They said it was Zelda. |

"Ego boosters" . . . such a lovely term for something so putrid... _________________ Strata here: [url=http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/user/242293]Nanowrimo[/url] - [url=www.fanart-central.net/user-Stratadrake.php]FAC[/url] - [url=http://stratadrake.deviantart.com]dA[/url] - [url=www.furaffinity.net/user/Stratadrake/]FA[/url]

[quote="VR_Jay (Will)"] I never get critiques. Ever. I so want them. But they never come. [/quote]
There's always critique panel..you can also ask for it in the description, anyways.. i dont remember my last comment because they were maybe 3 from the same person.
Comments dont annoy me at all, just like dabear said its better than nothing. :o
EDIT: there's something missing though, some people ask in the comments what did you use to color this pic/what program did you use to color this pic and yada yada. |

My last comment was actually the most useful one I've yet to receive. I got a very well broken down critique on how to improve on drawing dragons. It wasn't just constructive critisism. It also had a sense of supportiveness in it.
I think it's great when people go beyond the extremes of "THAT'S SO KEWL" and "That totally sux!" Ego boosters are fine now and then, but I much prefer comments that aid an artist in perfecting their own style, technique and ability.
