			<description><![CDATA[[quote=Max Butcher]I dont think I should have assumed. I just dont like asking loads of questions[/quote]

You can just critique it based on what you see on screen - if the frame rate is low or the animation looks jerky, say "the frame rate is low" or "the animation looks jerky" instead of "I suggest you stop using WMM". If the filmmaker then asks how to make it less jerky, you can ask questions about what he's currently using.

As a general rule, when I'm posting criticism I write what I think, take a break, read back what I just wrote and think about how I'd feel if someone said it to me. Then I take out anything that sounds like a personal attack and try to rephrase things that sound overly harsh.]]></description>

Yes. I shouldnt really have rated it '1/10', and I dont think I should have assumed. I just dont like asking loads of questions (I hate it when people keep asking me the same questions over and over). I once again apologise for assuming - and accept that I was a little harsh, but I wasnt attacking you for 'fun' Fib.

He is right but it's the way he delivered the criticism. The "1/10" and the WMM and Natural Light assumptions were harsh, he should have asked what he animated it in then said he should change if it was WMM.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Fib, if you can't take advice you will never ever become a better animator. Everything that Max said is true, listen to him. I wasn't that great when I started, and it's because of the criticism I received from the older, more experienced members that got me to try new techniques. Fib, you can't just turn your back and say that your film rocks and that whoever disagrees is insulting you for pleasure. C'mon, Fib, they are just trying to help you! But I guess if you don't want to become a better animator, that's up to you...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Look Fib, I didnt mean to sound agressive or insult you. I'm just trying to help you improve. 

[quote]- I don't use frikkin WMM, I use SMA. Don't assume that because the film isn't top notch[/quote]

I suggest you then try to improve your animation technique. Its good that your using SMA, but the framerate does I'm afraid look like it was done in WMM. I'm not exactly the best animator in the world (in-fact, I'm probally one of the worst) but I'm sure you can do alot better animation wise. 

[quote]- I'm not using natural sunlight
- I'm using a frikkin 9000[/quote]

Again, it looks like you have. If your using a 9K, then I suggest you try looking at ways to improve the quality - since the Quickcam can get a really sweet picture if you work on it. I think lighting may have something to do with it, so maybe you might want to invest in a stronger light. Again, you dont have to take my advice. 

[quote]Maybe, you can say something nice for once instead of finding an amatur to insult for pleasure.[/quote] 

.....what?  
You think that [b]I[/b] insult you for [i][b]FUN?[/b][/i] I'm insulted. How dare you! How DARE you think I would sink that low! Do you think I go out and bash old ladies with a cane for fun? Do you think that I kick my cat when I'm bored, or strangle my sister just to see how long it takes her to turn blue? How dare you!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Fib, we're not attacking you, we're trying to help you.

Now don't worry, there's always been a time where we can't exactly take criticism. I remember when I hated being criticized and scowled at people for criticizing. But if you're not ready for criticism, you shouldn't be posting your films here. We're giving you our honest opinion. If we make up that it's great when it's not exactly great, you're not going to get anywhere. 

Take a chill pill, dude. We all love you! ;)]]></description>
