hehehe, i haven't been a member here for very long and i totally agree!! much easier too.... check my critique if you have a moment

I concur.

I just thought it was an artistic decision for the sub. Some do it in a pretty cool way. It doesn't really bug me.

My personal favorite are designers who don't even show a placement for their submission -- are we trying to sell a print or a t-shirt design, hmmm?

i agree with FRICKINAWESOME some artists actually do it in a not so annoyig way

I do it to annoy you

my biggest pet peeve is not getting printed, i can tolerate all else

I don't mind it

Yeah, on a scale of "slight itch" to "a jackhammer to the brain" in terms of annoying, this one ranks pretty low. mjoo, I woulda thought your hugest pet peeve is people not using the critiques section.

I will never use the critiques section!!!!

(That's why I get low scores all the time)

^^^ ANARCHIST! I thought we took care of your kind when the Bolshevik Empire collapsed!!!

The reason the scribble makes me crazy is because so often, the design wouldn't even look good in the scribble area. Plus, it takes the same amount of time to scribble as it does to place an actual image there. It makes me crazy because the logic behind it is so alien to me :)



As far as the critique section goes, my first couple of submissions to voting defy explanation. They make sense to me, and to no one else in the universe. When I see someone doing stuff that reminds me of that, I point them towards what helped me.



It doesn't bother me when people don't critique (I only critique about half my stuff) unless they keep submitting the same work over and over. I kind of feel like they're only hurting themselves, so I'll recommend that they critique, but it's no skin off my back if they decide otherwise.
