Something that burns me up
19 years ago
There's few things that I have a problem with, and most things just bug me a little bit, but there's one thing that really burns my hide, ungrateful people.
I don't mean all people that are ungrateful are bad, I mean like those that ask for something and then really don't like it, even though it's a gift to them.
I've seen a few times on this and other sites, people would ask for a request from a person and then when it was finished, they would complain that it was really bad or that they don't like it.
I personally can't see doing that, I mean, if someone does something for me, I think it's good no matter what it looks like. It just befuttles me how people can be like that, anyone got any idea way?
Thanks for listening to me rant :).

Sorry...I know what ya mean but I've done some request for people that I really thought I did awful on. Sometimes I'd draw like seven pics just to fill one request and only post the one that I felt sucked the least. Its cause you never know what people are going to expect or really want...and also most people are really vague about what they want. Like just saying :
"hey, can you do a pic with Raven from teen titans and Rapheal from TMNT? That would be SWEET!"
"Oh okay...um...what should they be doing?"
"Oh I don't care just make it R-rated ^_~"
Well you don't get much more vague then that. The names of two characters and just asking for something naughty...sometimes as an artist you want a little more detail...drawing blind for a request sucks.
"Naughty" could mean fricken anything! Blowjobs, bondage, ass pokeing, missionary style...theres a million options and not enough time in the day to pick one as a busy artist!
Request should be thorough and if they aren't thorough how the hell am I going to know I did it right????
*deep breath* Sorry...thanks for listening to my rant.
But I'll make you a promise I'll try not to be hard on my work when its for a request even a vague one. Just for you baby! ^____^
Signed the sad and damaged spyder...
Tuffyt.
But Linda and I are very grateful for that wonderful story you did about us. We eagerly await the next one, whenever you get around to it. We think you are a great writer. The letter is in the mail, BTW. :)
(that thread is apparently being passed around so much one admin got paranoid and locked down the forum thinking it was being spammed lol)
"I've seen a few times on this and other sites, people would ask for a request from a person and then when it was finished, they would complain that it was really bad or that they don't like it."
he complains about the free art he gets, and is rude about asking for more.
My wolf Honey draws for me and though Big Daddy doesn't think he is even remotely near Max Blackrabbit or Eric Shwarts in skill and style... He draws for me.. I rarely even ask him...
an that just makes me feel like he is a Freakin Picaso, he is my Mozart with a pencil because he cares and trys.
Thats why I pimp Big Daddy!
So yeah, when someone does something just because they wanted to... Cut them some damn slack and say "Thank you!" just because they tried.
Too many ungreatful bastiches out there IMHO.
