This is actually an attempt to see how many people I can get to sustain in my attempt to get as many of you as possible to comment on others works as much as they can. THIS IS NOT ABOUT ME!!! Since I've joined I found a lot of great pics with thew or no comments and since I belive that nothing is worst then indifference I'm trying to start a comment frenzy^^
I'm sure you all like to recive comments and appreciate them so why don't you do the same for others even if they are good or bad comments. So lets see how many of you join me in this........

Good luck in that. I personally feel majority of members are too lazy to leave any comments. All they want is easy download of scans and wallpapers. My level is solely through comments in gallery and forums. I do not do scans or wallpapers so leaving comments are the only way to say thank you and raise my level.

In fact, one of the mods already raised this issue and he was a catalyst for me to be more active in leaving comment. Also, many times I came across nice scans or wallpapers and no comments. But I did see favorites given. Why give favorite with no comment?

Conversely I'm pretty stingy giving out favorites. Too many members complaining about the new restriction of 10 favorites per week. Favorite should be wallpaper so good that you want to use it as your desktop which means it better be really good for you.

I can understand what you are saying cocidering that you're the only one that replied to this. Altough I still hope that others have seen it and are concidering what I said.

I hardly ever give out favorites because I can find at least one major flaw in almost every wallpaper. Seeing as how I'm practically a graphic designer and I could point out what was used in the wallpaper by members, I can tell what is bad and what is good. As for making comments, they are important towards improvement. No comments equals the same mistakes and the same mistakes entails the same comments over and over again. It's a cycle. You improve, you may not have to see the same comments over and over again.

Favorites on scans is a no-no. In fact, those who submit scans should only be given percentage for making the submission, not for getting favs though they would accumulate in favorites so they act as quick references for other members, and scans should not be part of the work valuation because there is no work done in scans.

I totally agree with you on the scans part. It feels like getting credit for somebody elses work. I have absolutely no skills whatsoever with the compuer so wallies in my favourites are there only because they appealed to me in some way. What interests me the most are doushinji and originals both those drawen by hand and those that have been computer editted as long as it's entirely the work of the one that submits it. For those I give good coments and favourites more easily as a meen of encouragement.

I didn't ralize how important it is to recive comments about your work till I got the firts comment of the doujinshi I submited a few days ago so I started to comment as much as possible and I made more friends here that way, so it really worth it.

I agree. I can't even begin to count how many wonderfull artists I discovered just by brouseing and leaving comments. Search and show interest in what others do. Just open one page (gallery) and if you only look at that members favourites and friends you have countless options from which to choose.

i almost got none comment neither good or bad on my stuff...

Maybe you're new so you'll just have to wait a little. That was the ideea to brouse & comment sp we won't always be doing that in our circle of friends. Now rest asure that at least someone will comment ^_^

i usually leave comments on those wallpapers that i download. i see it as a form of encouragement for those who make them and also at the same time thank them for their hard work.

i think a simple appreciation goes a long way! :) i have people thanking me for commenting on their wallies and that makes me feel good toO!

and now i also see things from another perspective since i starting submitting wallpapers. without comments i have no idea what other people might want. because from my point of it, it looks rather good. so without comments mean no improvement for me!

Im a newb here and have started to try and figure out how to be as good an artist as a lot of these people. I think your points are very valid on feedback and will try and leave some comments about the wallpapers that I like. Thanks for the advice.
