Well let me start by saying thank you for making a sensible post without constant name calling and baseless remarks. It is refreshing, even if it long.
All of my posts that I have created in this thread do not have any name calling, I don't understand why you have to say that now.
Though I must disagree immediately with your point, only because it has quite missed the point. Did I do any name calling in my post? Did I set forth any sort of challenge? Did I do anything other than give proper CnC? I did not "start something," with my original post, I simply critiqued a sig in a polite manner. If one cannot do that without being responsible for starting a fight, then the art of CnC is dead. Since when does saying "your lighting is off" make you a squabbler? I find it hard to believe that you actually believe that.
CnC is suppose to be polite, not in a fashion that shows how much you "know" about sig making and designs, the way you made your sigs shows how much of a "douche" you are, I'm not name calling I'm just explaining to you how your posts start fights in forums.
Again, my CnC was simply advice. Sure, if you have five lights you can choose to ignore them all, but that is not proper design, that is not even proper physics. You are correct that he has every right to ignore lighting in his sig, but I have every right to point out where he has ignored it without being attacked for trying to help.
It wasn't advice, it was more of a complaint, "your character isn't following it's color suit." isn't advice it's a complaint. The designer makes the design, if he/she wants 2 of the 5 lights to work then 2 of the 5 lights will work, you do not need all lights to be working to make a good sig. You do have a right but there is a line, you should have never taken his work and circle errors or mistakes. It would have been easier and less ignorant to point them out in text than to take someones work and "correct"
Nonsense. I never changed the conversation, and you know as much. I changed with the conversation in order to defend myself from his baseless attacks and nothing more. My first CnC was nothing but proper, and therefore, according to your own words, he should have been able to take it. But he did not take it, he attacked me for it. Do not try to pin that on me.
Actually you have, you changed the wording to make it seem Mihawk is the bad guy and you are the innocent helper. You said his lighting was off, he said there was 2, then you said there's more, circled his "light sources" and it ended up going on from there. Plus his character lighting wasn't following suit? Since when is it a rule that a renders lighting must follow a suit for it to be considered a good sig?
Well, up until this point it was a pleasant post. Before you lecture me on working with the lighting already on the render, you may want to read up and see that I have already said that is something you can do. But if you do not, you must change it accordingly. When flares are used, they do become sources of light, because flares are a radiant object. Again, he can choose to ignore that, but it looks wrong when he does so because the lighting makes no logical sense. He has a giant flare basically sitting on the characters chest and yet his chest is complete shadow? Again. Just trying to help.
It looks wrong? It looks good in my opinion but you don't care about that because you want him to fix his sig to your liking. Perhaps the flair is behind or close to the edge of the chest, making it seem improper but fits perfectly with the render.
Oh stop it, now you have completely fallen off the tracks. I stated very clearly that I did not mean it as an insult in anyway, I was simply asking because he seemed to be having trouble understanding me and wanted to know if there may have been a language barrier. You are trying to fan the flames and make something out of nothing, you can have the "pathetic" all to yourself.
"
Are you from a non-english speaking country? Honestly. I ask not to be rude,
only because I think it is impossible for someone to be this thick, and so perhaps something is getting lost in translation. I'm trying to give you the benefit of the doubt."
Not pathetic at all huh? Still going into that type of deal is pathetic no matter what. Kinda makes it seem like an insult that they aren't understanding anything, kinda like how you aren't understanding the GFXers who are extremely good and are way better than you. You should take their advice instead of giving your own and acting way too good with it.
