Bloo is obviously a great graphics designer; any sane person can see that. But deek is also amazing. Anyway, I'm not here to say one is better then the other, or whatever, I'm just gonna say it looked pretty reasonable what he said.

I know for a fact, as I am living proof, that pointing out flaws rather then saying how great something is will only improve people. When I used to get complimented a ton from Murasamune screenshots, it got my ego so high I was blinded by it. When people started to dislike my work, or start to compliment Faheria or something, I slowly began to lesson my ego, and eventually I have a small amount of pride in what I do, rather then an ego. From that day on every time I make a graphic I improve and learn more.

What I'm trying to say is rather then see that he posted all negatives, see that he gave you areas to improve upon, then improve on it. That way, next time, there will be nothing to complain about and they will compliment. That is how progression is made, not by complaining and saying how they insulted you...

Precisely. And, from what I see, he hasn't even taken my compliments seriously. What good is it to 'constructively' critisize someone if they aren't even going to improve their work from it? Sorry if I'm not so peachy poofy crystal unicorn princess nice when I critisize people's work, but it's better that I say "This is of poor quality. You need to work on this and this and this" rather than "OMG BLOO NICE WERK OGM WERK ON MY SERVER I GIV U LVL 4 RC111!111 "
