*nod* Thank you. It really is about work put in. Lazy people won't become good artists no matter how many redlines they get. :) And I'd be much better, crit or not, if I had more drive than I do.

I really don't have anything about people who really love critique, I just wish they'd quit treating me like crap because I don't! (Man, this is starting to sound like a discussion of religion.)
