Since it was a DA contest I posted them here first. I will most likely post winners on Manaworld. As well as all the entries in a contest folder so everyone can see.

That is a good post, many important points were made. Still, there are differences in your case. You didn't have to enter this contest, you knew you only had a chance at winning, no cash reward was guaranteed. I think before reading what was in that link I had an idea of what "recognition" turns out to be in reality for artists like yourself, I was only trying to be nice and show my support as a fan when I commented here.
Here's a link for you in return: www.patreon.com/

I noticed a distinct lack of your own art on you DA account.
Tell me more about how you know what an artist should be doing.

Honestly, I don't need to tell you anything stranger, especially when I don't see the point in dragging out this conversation. I'll play along, though. For one you don't need to be an artist yourself to know their tendencies, what they're like or likely to do. Artists who share their experiences with their fans and other artists on the internet leave plenty of information in their journals, blogs or whatever media there might be out there for people like me to look over to gain "inside" knowledge. Just from reading that post in the link I can learn a lot about the problems they face, it's not very hard.
Just because I may not be an artist myself (not yet anyways) doesn't suddenly mean my opinion is invalid. If you have nothing good to say from this point on don't bother replying, I don't care much for rude remarks.

It means you've never had the 20+ years of experience of dealing with people constantly trying to undermine and cheat what's taken you a life time to learn.
If you knew like you said you do, you would have know that most artist groan at the word 'recognition'.
I'm not upset that I lost and you seem to think that has something to do with the competition. I'm upset at you using a word that propagates the abuse of other artist.
Your comment was insensitive to artist trying to survive and make money. You ENCOURAGE 'recognition' and that is Faux pas.
So please.
In the future DON'T use the word 'recognition'.
It means almost nothing. And to prove it. I'll post the image I posted on my DA and the Image on Scartche's page.

I'm not speaking ill of Scratch, but none of that traffic even made a third of its way to my page. So while it got views in the contest I got no 'recognition'
Nor has it increased or improved my commission rates. So my only hope of making anything back was to place which I didn't. I took a risk for my time and it didn't pay off and I can live with that.
I won't have you spreading lies about recognition.

You've made your point, I already learned my lesson as soon as you gave me that link and it got me thinking more seriously. I know you feel strongly about this and I'm sorry, I made a mistake. You don't have to give everyone who says that a hard time. :\

Yeah. He was a consistent that every judge voted for.
To me he really did capture the personality of each of the characters.
The sultry Red, The annoyed Syx and the playful Kandi
