(Stolen from RFS, who's idea was loosely based off of Biggalo's: http://forums.miniclip.com/showthread.php?t=71699)

The Art Gallery is a place where Miniclip users can receive criticism on their works. Be warned though, that if what you made is really bad, or needs improvement, people will tell it directly to your face, and they may not be very nice about it. Here are some added guidelines or tips to keep in mind when you post your artwork:

If you are posting artwork here:
- Make sure you are ready to accept both good AND negative feedback. You WILL get both.
- Do not post something that you know is really not that great. This includes "oh i was bored so i made this in 5 mins" artwork.
- All artwork is welcome, but make sure it follows the rules, please. No porn or anything. Save that for somewhere else.
- You should maybe ask someone through MSN, AIM, etc. before posting it here, to see if it's alright. Could save yourself some negative comments.

If you are critiquing artwork here:
- If you're going to point out the bad, at least try and find SOMETHING good about the artwork.
- Do not be overly rude. You can give harsh criticism, but this is not an excuse to flame and be rude.
- Do not prejudge artwork of a specific genre and automatically say you hate it. This is the same thing as a zero-content post and really is a bannable offense.
- You should consider how hard it was to make when judging a piece of art.
-ACTUALLY CRITIQUE IT! Do not just give a rating. State what is wrong with it, what can be improved, etc. Give constructive criticism!

Overrating
I have seen people over-rate people's work before. Sure, I love getting my work rated good, but if you are rating someone's work using the out of ten method, or something similar, remember that 5 is average, 10 is amazing, and 1 is pretty much a blank image. I see people rating work about 7/10 and saying that it's average.

You are right, I just saw a "It's OK 7/10."

Edit: Dominati0n why do you still have the Newbie Penguin Rank?

He hasn't posted since Saturday. It won't take effect on him 'til he posts again, which probably won't be anytime soon.

To post an image, you host it at a site like http://www.imageshack.us, and copy and paste the URL to the image, and put this code:

I read it. Yeah it's good. Is it just me or do you ever notice some people judging it by who made it? Like not the person's style, their personality.

It's always like that now. No one knows how to critique any more.

Excuse me? Do you by any chance live under a cyber rock? Don't be so irragant, and actually look next time, it is stickied and has been for a VERY long time. I suppose when this Sub-Forum even came out.
