Over in IFDD's journal Myssah brings up an interesting topic: that people don't read the artist's descriptions on deviations. I'm sorry if you're a hair-trigger faver that never reads descriptions, but that just really pisses me off. I mean, if the artist has something to say about their image, is it not as worth reading as the art is observing? The artist's take on his/her own image is worth so much to me--and if they bothered to say anything about it, it's worth a lot to them, too.

Which brings me to another point--I absolutely HATE it when people just have "..." in their description. At the VERY LEAST put what materials/programs were used in it, please! If you have nothing to say about it, then say "I really don't have much to say about this." It's not that hard. Really. I really want to know what people were thinking about when they made their images!

Also if you fave something of mine, but don't bother to comment on the deviation you faved, I'm NOT going to go to your homepage and say "thx 4 the !!" anymore. If you aren't going to take the time to at least say "cool!" or explain why you liked it, then I'm not going to take the time to thank you. Obviously it doesn't mean THAT much to you if you don't.

Sorry if it sounded rude but I agree with it all.

so do i.
