Debated.

Sat Apr 18, 2009, 11:29 PM
As I putz around DA I've noticed that people are very polarized about the whole "should I comment if I fave" thing. I don't care where anybody else stands. As far as me goes, you can fave my whole gallery and never say a damn thing. The fave is more than enough.

I look at a lot of art, but I rarely have anything whorthwhile to say about it. In my head it's like "this picture makes me happy ergo I will fave it."

Nothing deeper.

No sililoquies about the nature of mankind, or the theory of color. Perhaps you are like me in that respect. I understand. If you have something to say, that's cool too. Even if all you want to note is that a character is anatomically pleasing to you. I sympathize. I wouldn't have drawn it if some part of me didn't feel that way too.

The internet can be a scary place. Sometimes having to say something is just too much. I'm not going to jump all up in your shit if you don't have well thought out opinions of my work. Liking it at all is just fine.

While I can sympathize with the sentiment, I can't quite bring myself to agree with it. Too many faves without any comment makes the praise feel slightly hollow. Nor has a mere fave ever caused me to burst out laughing or inspired a second pic. It takes comments for that. :shrug:
:iconcrave-the-bullet:
Fair enough. I enjoy a good comment too, but I don't live or die by them.

:iconcrave-the-bullet:
