I just hate meodrama... ah well, the joys of being an addolent male... not many of them.
No, of course I don't have a problem with that. [img]smile.gif[/img] As I said in the anime thread, artists should expect to be criticised, if they can't deal with that they should have a good think. Criticism (provided it is given in a helpful, constructive way) can lift you up to higher levels if you choose to listen to it, instead of shutting your ears to it because you prefer false flattery. In which case I suspect you're in the business not because you want to create beautiful art but simply for the attention [img]tongue.gif[/img]
So I don't mind at all if people don't like the same things I like, why would I? [img]smile.gif[/img] I do think people often base their opinions on wrong assumptions however. For example, there's nothing melodramatic about good poetry. Teen angst poetry is fairly melodramatic, yes, but then again if that's the definition of poetry then I don't like poetry myself.
