RULES FOR COMMENTING

Giving Criticism:

Be kind but honest when critiquing someone’s work. Even though we are are here for help, we still have egos.
Be specific and give examples. Why don’t you think something works? What could make it better?
A downvote is not a critique.

Taking Criticism:

Indicate in your post whether or not you want people to draw on your work. Artists are visual learners, so feedback will be easier and clearer if you let others draw on your comic.
A critique is more valuable if you respond to it and start a dialogue. Think someone’s critique missed the mark? Take the time to respectfully explain why.
A downvote is not a response to a critique.

Don't know what to say but like what you see? Encouragement is welcome here.
