Rey² (as usual) speaks de truth. When I got here I was incapable of typing more than three or four words together, wore geeky clothing, was very VERY shy, and was an accountant. I think I've come a LONG way BABY!

be careful, you're eyes may fall out

*crickets

It's really hard to speak with someone when English isn't your foreign language So cut your jokes to a little bit more understandable

I know I have definitely improved since joining this site.

And as I have said before, it is because of the comments and advice from my fellow choppers. I want constructive feedback, good or bad. It helps me to improve and want to learn more.

So go on a tell me that my shadows suck, my blending is bad, or my perspective is off. I will take anything that is said about my work and use it to my advantage.

And about leaving twatty comments like "perfect" and "winner, I believe leaving comments like this on entires that, of course could use more work (because nothing is perfect in this world) gives people a little encourgement, especially newbies. A few kind words once in awhile can go a long way.

Just my 2 cents

You tell a (new) member that their blending is BAD and then start a thread about a PRIVATE MESSAGE that they sent to you in confidence. Sorry if I seem a little short with you.

yap everybody wants to know what I'm talking about

read my first question carefully one more time

Stevster I don't wanna argue or discuss with you anymore. You win!

I win?? I'm not mad at you. I'm Just trying to stick up for this person who probably doesn't even know about this thread.

don't moralise this so much... I didn't tell anyone the whole message and you lost the point of this topic

We could probably start a WHOLE new thread on this topic.
It is a challenge as we are a UNITED (well, semi-united) NATIIONS of Pixel Pushers.

We do NOT all speak English as our Mother Tongue (and NO jokes about my mother's tongue, damn you BLUE LURKER!). This can cause some challenges. My fiance is Persian and so English is her 2nd language. Even we make nasty mistakes in understanding each other time to time (like, I had NO idea that "take out the trash" in Farsi DIDN'T mean "go have another beer and relax" in English. )

Seriously, when you notice that a poster is posting from Croatia or Sudan or Ethiopia or Newfoundland, you gotta take a moment and realize that they may NOT get our "english" as clearly as we would like.

Again, folks, a little compassion DOES go a long way. Doesn't mean you have to talk baby talk around here (though there is MUCH of that ) but be patient and take deep breath before you shite down someone's neckhole because you believe them to be dissing, or putting you down.

Nevermind .....Welcome to PSC.

Lancoma, there's no one stopping you from going back to that image and saying ya didn't mean to be so harsh.
Rolling eyes at such a minor infraction is more rude than
what yer rolling yer eyes at.
We have older, better known people that make far less polite comments than just "BAD" everyday. Nobody rolls their eyes at them cause they're guaranteed votes.
And it's ok to mention ya got a private message, I dunno why that is supposed to be a secret

thanks
