hi dogmeat.
my answers are : 1- I think everyone gave their point of view clearly and their advice even clearer, in all i think he has lots he can use, not everything, but still lots. 2- IMO it gave him different ways to view his pixel from the view of artists of different styles and different skills. 3- I would suggest to SM that instead of doing what we think is best, he should see why we think it is best and try a different approach than ours in a way to define his own style while retaining the solutions we gave him for the pixel's imperfections. Anyway he has gotten a really long way from where he started, he shouldnt find the rest as much of a problem as before. btw. im working on an Anubis dog pound banner, coming sometime soon. |

Hey dogmeat, I'd like to join. I'm really looking forward to improving my skills, and I'd love to help others out by giving C&C, and at the same time improving my C&C skills as well.

I believe its a good moment to clarify something about my participation on this activity. although I do support doogu's primary goal for this "group" by considering myself as a member, I won't be much of a real participant of it, mostly because two big reasons. first, because I am limited by my -still- poor english to give a proper comment and a solid critique in the for of text. However, I always try to drop something more elaborated than a simple "looks great". second and most important reason is, as I stated on my first post, I do not need a Flag to do what I do. this means that, even when I am consider myself as a member of this movement(by the reason I posted at the begining), I am not worried to follow its guidelines.
but, in any case, feel free to rate and critique my comments. Best regards from Metaru |

Actually it is about prizes, self esteem is the best kind of prize.
 Metaru your English is better than most people who speak it as they're native language. And like I said, I'll watch for a little bit before I go joining any cults. |

1. What are your general thoughts on this persons C&C.
-Helped reinforce some of the previous ideas, mainly just agreed with rest of the group.
2. How was it helpful to Skull Master -He helped restate some important points
3. What would you suggest to this user that would improve the C&C they gave. -To actually put their own input in, not restate.

Out of all the people who commented and some also restated , why you chose to do the questionnaire about me. And yes by restating i was actually sharing my opinion, its not my fault someone beat me to it. |

Count me in, too!
What you expect to get from being part of the dog pound: First and foremost improve my pixeling, and secondly become a more active member of the 'joint community. Started a rough for a fox terrier banner. Thoughts?

I want to be either Lou or Zion :P
And I think a great activity would be "find the fleas!"
You could put a piece of artwork with a bunch of fundamental errors and you could fix and refine it.
 Also, are we going to use my badges? The collars? Edited by Doomcreator0 - 07 December 2007 at 2:14pm |

the thing about commenting on C&C... im not sure its a good idea.
The problem is that when you give crits with in mind the fact that youre SUPPOSED to give crits of a certain quality, you're not in the same mindset than if you just try to criticize a piece. Theres a risk that dog pound participants will see mistakes that arn't really there, or unconsciously tend to exaggerate in their comments. A solution could be to only select a topic AFTER comments and crits were made. This way, participants wont actually know which topic will be reviewed as they comment on them, and will just have to watch the overall quality of their crits and comments rather than just aim at one single topic and comment the snot out of it, possibly misleading the author by mistake in the wake of their competition-driven enthusiasm. Just a thought. :P |

so pretty much all the active members of this forum are now in the "dog pound"? This whole thing seems silly to me.
you've created a partisan forum amongst the users. The only partisan thing of a forum should be it's moderators in my opinion. On another note, what qualifies a person in the 'dog pound' over a regular forum member to give honest critique and such. (or anything your group does, for that matter?) maybe I'm just confused on the purpose of such a thing, but it doesn't seem like much to me. Correct me if I'm wrong. |

We're not necesarily more "trusted" in critique. We're basically just a group of people that are just trying to help others get better as well as ourselves. Ask Dog, he'd be better at explaining this. |

 or I could start a new team-TURTLEPOND!! mwuhahahaha, Skooba-dude(TURTLEPOND!! leader)
