Okay then, it's like someone saying they don't dress well and they hate their hair. Ether way you get what I mean.
So you just go around and only say the bad about stuff? Okay. So that means it's okay for me to go up to everyone that has those big furry boots that I think look really tacky and go up to them and say "Change your boots, they're stupid!", I'm thinking not. Be a good finder; find what you like first before looking at what you don't like. It will be good for you and other people.
Or if you honestly can't find anything good about it, just do what I do: continue to do what you were doing and move on.

Whether or not you like the boots is a matter of subjectivity. Whether or not the boots are of poor quality is a matter of objectivity. If you purchase a pair of boots that fall apart as a result of being put together poorly then it would make sense to call up the manufacturer and tell them what's wrong with the boots.
"Or if you honestly can't find anything good about it, just do what I do: continue to do what you were doing and move on."
Or I'll just do what I do and point out what makes a piece extremely amateurish.
This is what's so hilariously ironic about all of you knobs boasting about how kewl it is 2 b difurnt. Your idea of "different" translates to "everyone else should conform to my ideals".

You are not getting my point, you are taking my analogys too literally. The point I'm trying to make is that it's not right to go to someone and just say what you don't like. Especially in that wording it sounds like an insult even if you were not trying to make it sound that way.
Everyone can take that phrase and apply it to what they think it means. If that's what it means to you, okay. But to me it means that you shouldn't do what other people do for the reason becuase it's "cool" or becuase everyone else is doing it. You should do something becuase you enjoy it.

"You are not getting my point, you are taking my analogys too literally."
You're not getting my point. Your poor analogies make this apparent.
"The point I'm trying to make is that it's not right to go to someone and just say what you don't like."
Prove that it's not right. You can't, because once again you're failing to comprehend the difference between objectivity and subjectivity.
Furthermore if you believe that it's immoral to tell somebody what you don't like, then why are you telling me what you dislike about my post? Seems rather hypocritical to me. Seems like shallow white-knighting, to be honest.
"Especially in that wording it sounds like an insult even if you were not trying to make it sound that way."
Everything I said was matter-of-fact. The artist used pillow shading which looks terrible, the emotes are oversaturated and lack contrast as a result, the background is a horrid mixture of grain and cloud filters, the edges of the stamp aren't transparent, the shadows are the wrong shade of grey, and the message is extremely clichΓ©. If that's offensive, somebody needs to grow a thicker skin.
"Everyone can take that phrase and apply it to what they think it means."
Nope, it's a very literal phrase, not something left up to interpretation. There's nothing metaphorical about it.
"If that's what it means to you, okay."
Where have I said what the phrase means to me? I stated what you erroneously perceive "difference" as.
"But to me it means that you shouldn't do what other people do for the reason becuase it's "cool" or becuase everyone else is doing it."
And yet I'm the only person on this page who isn't doing this.
You're all babbling on about how amazing this piece is, how skillful the shading is, how groundbreaking the message is, etc., and it's all bullshit. You're harming the artist for the sake of looking "cool" and "friendly".
"You should do something becuase you enjoy it."
And I enjoy giving my honest opinion about peoples' art rather than sugar-coating it and stunting their improvement.

I now understand that you think insulting and only saying the bads will get you somewhere. Maybe it will, but to a short extent in my opintion. In my experiance, mixing good with bad together makes the artist respond best and more likely to change it.
And in my comment I was mainly agreeing with the message in my point of view, I never raved about the stuff you listed.
This is getting no place at all, and this conversation is filled with negitivity. You can't effect what I think, and I don't think I can effect what you think. It now seems pointless to go on with this anymore.

Thank you for this stamp.
Sometimes I have a hard time because my family is very old-fashioned, and I am hypersensitive to stimuli, which mean that I am left out of many conversations and experience pain in "normal" situations.
This isn't a new message, but sometimes the reminder is a relief. I know, I'm not here to talk about myself... I'd just like to say that sometimes little things like your stamp can make a difference. I'm glad this got a DD. Sometimes weird kids need a reminder that even if our strangeness hurts us sometimes, it doesn't mean that we're completely unusual people destined to be left out for the rest of our lives.
Thank you for the reminder. I'm going to put this thumbnail somewhere on my page to remind myself that I don't have to watch TV or enjoy loud school assemblies to be cool... I can just be myself.
So you have made a little difference in my life... and I'd just like to let you know that. Thank you.

Notice that everyone here believes themselves to be the odd one out, including myself. In theory doesn't that make us all the same? Congrats on the DD
