in order for someone to tell you what to do or how to do it, they have to bring to the table a business plan or option that is better than what you are already doing.
my points about both of these guys were valid......
if they are happy with what they do, I would applaud them
all I told nevasoba was that it looked kinda suspicious because the way the arm was cut off on his "PAINTING"... I never seen anyone paint something cut off before....
c-4 I offered a tip on how to correctly do text.... and the thing about that tip was, I am correct.. any college art teacher will tell you that, most of you have never had formal art training and do everything by eye, I offered to him "HELP" more than anything....... then he got pissed off and tried to tell me how to run my business & all this other shit..... and I corrected him on that..
I am willing to interact, I am willing to take all criticizm, but don't think everybody is always going to be right and i'm always going to listen to what they say, because i'm not, and I wouldn't expect them to listen to me at all times either......
the reason I keep saying I make more money than most people on here is because that right there lets you know what type of business I do, instead of doing it how they do as a hobby and trying to take every project to maximum potential, I work almost like a printshop would work with huge amounts of orders & fast turn-around.......
of course they can spend alot of time on a project and make it hot, so can I, don't look at some shit I slapped together and judge it against some shit they spent weeks on and consider it the same because it's not.
I feel like i'm the better artist because I can do high quality work in hours.... most designers cant. you have to understand what my skill is, it don't just consist of hot graphics, it consists of FAST TURN-AROUND times, Good Results, and Good Business. Every Project isn't going to be str8 fire.. it's not designed to be and the artist didn't care if it was...... that's the point most people are missing
so you can tell me, awww that's not hot, and in my mind i'm thinking Yeah no shit, I already knew that...... or the pic quality is bad, and i'm thinking? oh really? I already knew that...... or how about the "Its Not Your Best Work".... i'm like? I wouldn't even rate it my best work myself, so the shit people say is obvious, I agree with them... at times my replies are a smart ass comment because i'm on this bitch on the regular, any moron should know my work level and if I post a camera phone cover then they should already know I didn't consider it my best
