How do people feel about a thread for critiques?
Or critiquing in general?
It seems to me, often critiquing is either at one end of the spectrum or the other> Just harsh tearing down, or mealy mouthed pandering praise.
I know I don't often like to hear bad things , just like most people.
I also have found that some who give suggestions don't have much "authority", yet present opinions as if they are prime directives.
Any thoughts on this?
At times I would like to say something about other people's works, but if they are not asking for it, I should just look and enjoy their participation.
For the most part, I enjoy hearing what people do like About my work, and if they like it they will come back. There are times when It would be nice to have intelligent and informed discussions about pieces...and techniques, mediums and methods. That could be diff threads.?
