I am not even going to go into that fan video thread issue - I don't understand really what happened there except for the sake of restoring peace let's just chalk it off to misunderstanding.
But that actually leads me to another issue.
If you choose to post here any kind of your personally made art...or if you decide to bring your personal issues into this forum...
People here have been known for extreme gentleness when it comes to things like that...
BUT...
Once your choice is made...be ready for a critique. If you can't handle the heat...don't jump into the fire.
Even famous artists, singers, actors, etc. get criticized...why shouldn't you?
And it's not like you're a Meat Loaf and it's not like it's your fanclub site...so...once again...if you don't want everybody's honest opinion...don't post your stuff here then. It might be a treasure to you and to your family but a puzzling gibberish to others. Plenty of people don't like Mona Lisa...so your art isn't exempt. And it doesn't mean that it's bad...but you do open yourself to the wide range of audience here...
If you're a sensitive artist...and might get hurt...don't blame anybody if your art is misunderstood and you actually do get hurt...rather share your treasures with close to you people who will appreciate it or at least run it first by close circle of friends...
