Hey guys, this goes to everyone. I'm not sure why I feel like saying this, I guess I've just finally seen enough people complaining about people criticizing their work when all that person is doing is making a suggestion.

This goes for everything, art, writing,even music.

There are three type of people who comment about someones work, the people that say they love it, that say it looks great and compliment it above and beyond. The person who critizes the work simply to be ugly and to be a troll. And those who say, I love the art but I think you can do X Y & Z to make it better. These people aren't trying to be ugly, their not trolling you, their HELPING you. They want to give you the wisdom they have learned so you can make the best art you can, they do it so you can get even better and feel even more proud of your work. Sometimes they don't say it in the best of ways, and sometimes they say it in the worst of times. But they still care, they are still trying to help.

Yes it's a fine line sometimes. Yes sometime it's hard to tell someone is trying to be genuine. But thats why it's important to keep your mind and heart open sometimes. To not get quick to anger and try to figure out what the person really means. I know thats not for everyone, and I know sometime people don't want any suggestions. But still, you don't fight fire with fire unless you want everything to burn and get damaged.

I know my art isn't the greatest, I know it's not the worst out there, I know it has a lot of potential but I also know it sucks. It's horrible compared to where I want to be. I would love for someone to say "Hey I love your art, but it's a little lifeless. I suggest you do this and this and this." I would love to be able to have some criticize my work and help to make me better. But I don't have any of that.

Don't get me wrong, I love my friends I love being surrounded by so many artist. But I have all these friends, and not many of them will admit my work is, say lifeless or still, or even messy. They focus on helping me see how good it already is.(And I love them all for it. <333) Now thats not to say I don't have any friends who will criticize my work when they think it's needed, take @Blossoms_Gemz and @SquishyWritesStories for example. They aren't afraid to say, yeah you have a long way to go. And I love them for it. I love that they know when I need advice and when I need support. @Blossoms_Gemz especially since she has known me longer than anyone else on here. She isn't afraid to call me out when I'm wrong about something, or when I'm being a little too weird. She knows when to just let me be a little airheaded and common senseless and when to tell me to calm down.

I guess I'm just tired of people complaining about other people who are simply trying to help. And look, I know trolls exist. I know 9 out of 10 times it's simply someone being a troll. But I have also seen a lot of the time they complain about people that are simply trying to help.
