Artist's Comments

This is something I've been thinking for a while... (or in fact, from when I first joined dA – I almost fell off my chair when someone thanked me for a fave the first time. :XD: Then I realised a lot of people did that i.e. it was part of the ‘culture’. )

If anyone needs to know what ‘implicit’ means, it’s basically ‘not expressed’. (I give ~stamps-club, *4StampsOnly and *stamp-album permission to host this) Used ~Cei-Ellem's Photoshop lace brushes for the background. [link]

If you agree with this sentiment, you may like to join *NNTR :iconnntr: - No Need To Reply. ;) Sharing the spirit of community growth and care, removing the necessity of the pleasantries if one does not have the time. :heart:

In fact, I feel a bit guilty whenever someone thanks me for the fave and I haven’t commented – I mean, I’m the one enjoying someone’s creation that they spent time and effort making, and it takes more time to write “thank you for the fave” than it does to fave it.

Of course I know that an artist appreciates faves. Who wouldn’t?

I’ve always kept it real – I’ve only faved art I really like, even on the “newly submitted” section when you open deviantART (and it’s more likely they will thank you, since it’s so soon after they’d submitted it).

So if you want to thank me for a fave (or anything), that’s fine. I’ll accept the thanks (and the pageview :p ). But I don’t want people to feel COMPELLED to do it, especially if they are short of time, and if they’d rather use that ‘thanking’ time to create more art.

:D Yay for pageviews! =p (actually, I was thinking, if it weren't for people thanking me, my pageviews wouldn't go up XD)

XDDDD Features? But I thought viewing a journal wasn't the same as viewing a page...

Oh well, a lost cause for a good cause. ;p

Hey, I love fractals! :+devwatch:

I always feel so obligated to thank (but usually only on the first time, since I don't want to feel like I'm spamming them) because I really do appreciate it and I don't want to seem like I don't care. :(

But I'm glad to see a lot of people don't mind whether they are thanked outright or not. :)
:icondazza1008:
That's a nice balance. :)

Unfortunately, half the time I don't know what piece they're referring to (as in people who have posted to clubs whom I don't know).
