'Thats awesome' or "thats horrible" is no good to me. I'm sure its going to come off wrong, in this text media, when I say I've been receiving 'attaboys' most of my life when it comes to my art. And while I can appreciate the spirit in which it was offered, I much prefer the following means of conveying both good and bad reviews over 'thats awesome' simply because the information presented thus actually helps me grow in my capabilities. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />I am quite prepared to accept valid critique of my work if presented as such. "I don't like this particular piece of work because, to me, it doesn't reflect (insert given desired emotive response here). Or "The proportions don't seem right here." or "The shading, colours used, composition, or what not doesn't seem right.The examples given actually present me with real information for me to consider so I can actually improve. I don't consider myself the best on the market, far from it in fact.Is that a fair answer?  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
