I get 'very nice', others get 'stunning!'.
Its not that I think my stuff is better, per-say, but its a lot harder to do brushed/gradient vectors than it is to do solid colored ones, and I think the outcome comes out much nicer.
....its really the only thing I think Im good at. But apparently no one else thinks so. My vector thread over at AF gets very, very little attention. And I dont understand why. Its not like I vector something because I want to, like some others do. Theres no text over their image, its already a good size and quality, and it doesnt need to have construction done to it. And if construction -is- needed, it simply isnt done. Plus, they add in a gradient bg, which -still- requires anyone who wants to use it to extract the image. Mine are all pngs with transparent bgs. All you have to do is erase my credit info when using it. I do reconstructions. I enlarge and vector. I vector to get rid of text. Stuff so that the scan can be used.
Im not posting anything here or at AF anymore. Im just not. No one notices it anyway, so the hell with it. Everything will be posted at BCL, because anything I post there is looked at and responded to. And its not just 1-2 posts/responds if Im lucky. Its usually about 5+ posts after mine. Ive never had to double post in order to add new work there.
Im done with feeling ignored by my "friends" and peers.

There are undoubtedly lots of deviants whose work look sub par, uninitiated and uninspired, and yet still their stats are up. True. It is disheartening. I feel that way as well... sometimes... some days. But only if we compare figures with others.
But I think creating art that we love and sharing our works with others are good motivations and reward unto themselves as opposed to merely creating works just to reel in the numbers. The show of appreciation by others via faves and comments are just little bonuses.
Still, I'm glad you haven't lost interest in making your art and will still be sharing them... just in another site. Hope you'll share a link to BCL so we know where to look for your unique and awesome gfx and designs.
Hope you're day will be brighter soon.
