How to Critisize(The Right Way):
Ok so someone posts some work (sig, art, pic file, etc.) and you see that improvements can be made. You also see some decent flaws.
Now, don't flame the person for these mistakes, simply state them and say how you could make them better.
Example:
You decide that the text stands out to much. You also see that the colors don't work well. Here's what you should say: "I like what you did but the text jumps out to much, maybe fade it in to the backround a little. Also, the colors don't mix right, maybe change them up and it'll be fine."
This won't make the art look bad, but the person knows what they should fix for next time. You can even rate the art (#/10) so they know just how good it is! This helps them even more then a simple comment does.
How Not To Critisize:
Say you see the same thing as before. Colors are weird and the text jumps out too much. You say, "DUDE THAT SUCKS GO KILL YOURSELF. THOSE COLORS, ARE YOU GAY OR SOMETHING! FIX THE DAMN TEXT YOU STUPID NOOB!!!!!!!!"
Remember its all about having fun and showing what you can do. Please keep this in mind next to you rate a sig.
I was SOOOO bored and did this :p
