Ok, so here it is. This is just for my own sake, not anyone else, so if you get pissed off about this, then its your problem, deal with it, cause no one said you had to read this, but here it goes.
So I've been on FA for a while now, and in this time, I've noticed a few things.
1; Most of the artists((not, MOST, not all))who charge six prices, meaning a shit ton of cash for their work, aren't even good enough to be able to charge more than a few bucks, let alone anything more than say, $15.oo to $20.oo.
2; If you're going to sell your shit for money, then for fuck sake, stop being a bitch about what you will and will not do. You're doing this for money, so suck it up and take what you get, regardless of what you're being asked to do. Not like you have to look at it for long anyways.
3; If your profile says you're a "photographer, then actually post something that you took a picture of, rather than being a jackass, and littering your profile with commissions, and things that you haven't either done yourself, or something you didn't photograph yourself.
Ok, I know I have more to say, but I'm gonna stop here, cause I know I don't have much room to talk, and I see that, but these are the things that bug the piss out of me to no ends.
I know its been a while since I've posted anything on my story, but I haven't been able to work on anything, due to my job, as well as other personal things, but again, theses are the ones that bug me.
1; Take a look at your art, if it isn't that good, then drop your damn prices, no one can afford crap.
2; Stop telling the customer, "I won't do this or that" and just do it.
3; Take a damn picture for once.
Now, once again, this is NOT directed to ALL, just the ones that are guilty of these things. I am well aware of the ones that actually are innocent of these things, and I'm only directing this at the ones that are guilty. So please, for the love of whatever you worship, don't get all butt hurt, and have me banned, or whatever.

The only small tidbit I can say to this is the fact that sometimes what the customer wants you to draw you aren't comfortable with. Whether paid for it or not, there is some things I just really don't want to draw/like to draw, because I don't like how it makes me feel and I don't want people seeing that stuff from me and asking me to do more of it. I'd start hating my art....

OP
Fair enough on that mark, but I'm talking about the light weight stuff. R rated things, I don;t get why someone would say no. As for the hardcore things, that much, I can see. It's just a strange thing to me, that people, would say no, to the simple things, like a pinup.

Now a pin up I can understand a small bit. But some things bother people that others would find weird
