Mood

Sensitive

I hate having dreams that are resident evil look-a-likes. Trapped in a building full of stupid morons with more stupid morons outside wanting in with an army of zombies on the way...

I was preparing traps and reinforcing weaker defenses when I got wind from others that we'll need help on the frontside where some giant ego-estic moron was demanding to blow a hole into the 2nd story window to get inside. Supposively he was the smartest man alive, but I'm thinking, "If he's so smart, he would've thought of a better way into the building without attracting all the undead attention..." Bozo..
I trekked down a long almost abandon section where people were keeping animals under watch, (not very good watch either) even I was noticing when the dogs were undergoing the infection. I locked them up and ran for it. Yeah... I hate the zombie dogs. They don't drag their feet when they're chasing you down.
When I got to the front, the smart-ass was already preparing to do what he wanted with explosives and armed squadron on his side, so people inside can't argue unless they wanted to get shot. When he blew the hole, it broke all the glass, and zombies were pouring in faster than I could prepare myself. I was stuck with a dinky dagger strapped to my hip. So I woke up with the feeling of teeth and claws digging into my throat. Ended up that it was a blanket strangling me. The feeling was icky.

ANWAYS the real point of this journal was to adress a problem that was going on through SA I've been seeing happening. No one is getting the attention they want, or comments/critism they need. SO. I came up with a sorta silly idea, but it's something I've been usually doing, just not for everyone cause I'm lazy.

COMMENT POSITIVELY AND CONSTRUCTIVELY ON EVERYTHING A PERSON SUBMITS.

I do not keep a large watch list because of this. I pick artists that are friends and/or artists I can look up to, and build from their styles or artworks that are particular to my eye. As far as favorites, it usually consists to my genre of music, single artworks that link me to artists I can refer to, or the way the piece was done that I absolutely enjoy.

For now, I'm going to go back through my own gallery, reply to any unanswered comments that are a step better than, "That's pretty." "thats cool" ect. I don't like these comments strictly because they are stating the fricking obvious. It's like stepping out in a snowstorm and saying 'its cold'. IT WOULD BE OKAY TO SAY if they commented on something specific that defines the not so obvious detail. i.e "That's pretty. I like how you had the extra twists in the hair ends that contrast to the foot."(Completely random and not pertaining to any artwork)

Well, that was my comment rant, and I feel better to get that off my mind to let you guys eat it up if you even read it! YES, Take the little extra time to others, and they'll do the same to you. Returning and starting comments of your own is a small step to a better SA.

Edit: It just happens at the time I submit this and go to comment on artworks my stalked victims submitts are half naked, or naked (BEWBZ) pictures. Something I don't feel comfortable to look at or even comment. /cough.



BTW. For me, anything I submit into Shareables or WIPs are feel free to throw any spam at. Anything that I send as a completed submission I would like a little care taking comments.
