Hmm.

Now, I'm all for freedom in art. I'm very open minded where art is concerned.. But.. And I don't mean to offend anyone:

What is the deal with.. Writing silly things on one's hand, then talking a (poorly focused, underexposed) photo? By all means, do it if said writing consists of something original - a piece of poetry for example.

What is the deal with.. Adding images to one's gallery that have been leeched directly from another source? (Do I smell Google Images). Chief culprits tend to be 'Lolcats' from icanhascheezburger.com I've noticed.

What is the deal with.. The ridiculous amount of 'Why So Serious' images. 'Nuff said.

What is the deal with.. The adolescent, juvenile males who lurk on here adding favourites to their profile which consist purely of naked females. At least contribute to the art world. I do. If you're just looking for that stuff, Google works wonders.

Finally, how on earth do some images on here get to be DDs. Especially when there's SO MANY genuinely amazing pieces of art out there that have a very small number of views. They are the ones that deserve it, not some of the, quite frankly, empty, lifeless photos that do get to be.

..I am open minded, honest.

You're very welcome. It's a beautiful, Dryad-esque piece, and very deserving of a favourite and more :)

So, what did you produce that wonderful piece in, if you don't mind me asking? I always use Painter X, which is great, but it seems I can never get that nice smooth-blended, porcelain feel that seem to come with art produced in Photoshop.. Plus, anything I do try to produce in Photoshop doesn't seem to turn out too well :(

I used PS cs2. All you need is practice, it makes perfect, but takes work and time! =]
