actually that kinda true... artist should change style and try sumthin new... its just that not every1 is one... i admit im not one, i prob wopnt b one either with all the comments is get and im not the only one... most ppl these days get comments that are absolutely not helpfull... and if they try a new style others will say it sux and they will jus drop that style and not try to improve... now mainly i see y u made this post since u included my banner in this... and honestly i dunt think wut i make is a decent style... i just like the colors and the way it looks and i make it for myself alone in whatever way i like it... i might change sumthin mayb a lil bit i mean id have 2 say looking back 3-4 months ago i have improved alot... but ive reached a stage now that the improvemnts would require alot more change and that will never happen if the work will b shunned. i have not said ur work sux vf, i jus didnt like that work as much... i like the colorfull ones but ones more smooth kinda like the ones most other ppl make theyr jus colorfull smooth some with nice text... and its prob gonna take me alot more hard work in order for me to be actually taken seriously in gfx... but thats one thing i might not b able to achieve... so ill stik with wut looks good for me and if others like it that nice, if they dunt then thats nice also... if youlike wut i make then thats y ppl request banners from me. i personaly think rating is just crap... id rather see a comment that would help me improve then wut i usually hear: 'sux' '3/10' or w/e other ppl get on theyr work 2. anyways pz that was my 2 cents.

huh?

I didn

well most ofus we only get to learn banners... y dunt u make like a tut, i dunt even know how to get started on a vector... i dunt know anything about vectors... most ppl jus want banners and avatars... i usually get wallpapers from other premade sites... and i dunt like working on large documents... so many ppl jus making banners every1 else thinks thats wut we mostly do... u should show more wallpaper work so that ppl can get interested in that.

*ahem* i wasnt born knowing how to make vectors... if vf wants to see us make walls and vector work hes gonna have to show us how, cuz i hav no idea how u even get started. wut i ment about large documents is that i wont like working with walls cuz the canvas will b so huge i like to see the entire canvas at once without having to scroll here and there.

I understand everyone and their replies...but why would ANYONE make this topic a sticky topic (permanent topic)? It's JUST someone's opinion and a little complaint about what they want to see and what they don't want to see.
