So... um... "the way I se bi every libe if a nile of god gthin dnbda. dba gs thin god things dnt selsy tensof the gt vil saver. dgoo ns thi rmke mthe the bad sthing tdon srlyneks lsne mnortnti"... First, vowels are small circles, not dots. Second, with words and sentences, you start with the bottom then work around counterclockwise going to the middle. Third, too many lines that don't connect to anything else make stuff really confusing and cover up other words (connect lines to other lines or just end them somewhere where they wont count for anything.

I really don't want to seem mean, but this needed a bit of help. I am sure you will get the hang of it soon

1.) Thank you for the feedback, honestly.
2.) When I made this - over a year ago, I might add! - each circle was done individually and shrunken down to actually fit the document and not create a monster file. That being said, a majority of the vowels ended up looking like tiny dots by accident
3.) Every version of the Circular Gallifreyan I've done DOES go counterclockwise towards the middle... unless I've completely mistaken my direction...? lol. Granted, with each new giant circle, or break in the quote, I tilted the circle slightly so as to continue with the counterclockwise theme - whereupon each circle would be read in a counterclockwise way towards the middle.
4.) And yes, admittedly I went line crazy on these. At the time, I was under the impression that each line had to reach the outer circle

But uhm yeah. Please take each bit of Gallifreyan on here with a grain of salt. Again, done over a year ago right after I had discovered the language and were being cranked out on a bi-daily basis for my senior art final. Probably not the best conditions for anyone to work under XD

Basically, again, thank you for the feedback and if I ever do get around to re-making these or even just adding other Gallifreyan pieces on here, I'll try to make a better effort with them.

Okay I am glad you appreciate the feedback.
And, also, on the second point, I want more emphasis on the "start at the bottom". Many of your words, a prime example of this is the word "good". at the top of the second phrase,you have written "good" perfectly (now that I understand the vowel thing), but at the bottom of the last phrase, you have written "dgoo" even though it is the exact same shape.

Since these weren't made under the best conditions I will wait to critique what you are truly capable of (assuming you want me too) I will watch you for more
