General
I know this is a very sensitive topic.
Some people may not even read this but for those who do...THANK YOU <3
Again as I mentioned this is a SENSITIVE Topic: ART TRADES
I LOVE doing art trades. Every chance I get one I absolutely love it and am greatful for it. Because not everyone does that and I completely understand why.
If one artist makes art for a living as their job I completely understand. You have to make money like the rest of us, I just wish I was more fortunate enough to live off of making my own art that people would love.
I know Art Trades are free, which to some people they don't agree with again: I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND!
But here's the part where I disagree and I talked to SEVERAL people about this part.
DON'T BE A FLUBBERNUGGET ABOUT IT.
I'm not going to mention names because I'm not that type of person but, when you insult someone just for them asking one question nicely you have no right to do so.
Example: I will, say, message an anonymous person. We'll use Bobbyfish as an example (Disclaimer: If there is someone by the name of Bobbyfish I am sorry I'm not talking about you personally I just put the name together off the top of my head)
So I'll message Bobbyfish saying:
"Hi I was wondering if you do art trades? if not I completely understand why and thank you for your time"
I think that's a nice message to be honest.
I'll get a reply that kinda goes like this:
"I don't have time for art trades I'm trying to sell my art not give it away for free!"
Or I'll get:
"Why would I take my precious time in creating a work of art to give to you and you give me a piece of trash!? You're art level isn't even close to mine! I don't want your unwanted trash!"
FIRST OF ALL: HOW DARE YOU!?
You can really put someone down and make them not want to do art anymore!
It happened to me but then I realized I can't stop making art, I grew up doing it!
To ANYONE who have ever had this happen to you, DON'T GIVE UP!
Ignore the Haters and keep on making art! :D
In another note: I AM ALWAYS OPEN FOR ART TRADES! :)
Sorry this is long but it's been bothering me :/
