i NEVER actually menioned that i am a good skin designer. Actually i started with this 2 weeks ago (and never said anything different) but have learned some things quite fast.With my first skin i posted (after around 1 or 2 days) some people already said i should stop doing skins. That is really unfair for someone who had just started with all this.thecontrolcentre wrote:Maybe? I've been reading this thread, and what I see is people trying to explain to you that your skins look amatuerish. It's clear you are not a talented skin designer ... what did you expect?Ingonator wrote:Actually my own comments here became more aggressive recently due to aggressive comments i had received for m own contributions. This was leading to some comments by myself that were maybe not OK.
Instead of having some humility and recognizing that your skins are not that good, you insist on publishing them one after the other, on an almost hourly basis, and complaining when nobody likes them. The idea of this thread was to get some talented designers to make a usable and good looking GUI for Poly-Ana ... not for you to bombard it with your first attempts at skinning anything ever.
You get 5 stars for effort, but really, if you are going to publish your work on the internet you should learn to take critisism a little better.
Besides some good ones (e.g. from fmr) several of the "tips" i got like "better stop doing skins" or "better start from scratch" or "put everything into as small space as possible" were not really helpful for what i wnted to do. comments lie "Your skins look horrible" were not helpful too.
Most tings i learned during the last 2 weeks i learned myself or from tutorials i found in the internet. (for knobman and GIMP).
actually i even "teached" a few things i had found to others as they did not know about it, for example wit hediting the XML file.
Anyway i am doing my best to improve and like others mentioned i actually DID improve during the last 2 weeks.
Anyway the fact that i am new does not mean that i do not have my own ideas/concept which i want to keep.
If this thread is only allowed for professional designers then i am indeed out of this.
