So does that mean it's just okay?

I applied to one of those elite icon communities. Didn't get in, which is kind of what I was expecting but this amused me -

[paraphrased]

Person A: Your cropping is nice, I especially like it on This Particular Icon.

Person B: Your cropping is quite crap, especially on these icons including This Particular Icon.

Elite comms crack me up most of the time and you just paraphrased why.

BLASPHEMY!

HAHA. That's awesome. :D

(PS your icons are way more awesome than most of the stupidly overdone icons out there.)

I wouldn't want to be part of anything that would call anything of mine crap, paraphrased or not. Fuck that shit, Megatron.

Contradiction, FTW!

Elite icon communities crack me up.

I love when they do that, it makes me laugh. I personally like your cropping :)

It all depends on personal taste. Generally when the contradict themselves they are trying to let you down easy, I found.

Assfaces. This icon is for them.

I'm thought about applying at times, but I always back off, lol. I like my icons, I get (some) comments on my icons, telling me they love them, so... I'm good. :D

I swear. Those comms are such bullshit.

The same particular icon?

Elite comms suck. Through rotten eggs at them until they fall off their pedestals and land face first in the dirt with the rest of us mere mortals.

Oh god, those comms suck ass. Especially when the mods and their chosen "elite" commit identical crimes to the ones that get people rejected. I just don't get that. How can you say, "your colourisation needs work" when one of your members is using those colours too?

I once suggested that an elite comm should be one where all members were required to maintain a certain level of quality or they could be booted out. But apparently you only need quality to get in. Producing shit afterwards is 100% acceptable (and it happens a lot)!

ahahha but it just proves that an icon is like a freakin'..erm.. poem (or you know.. some form of art? in a way.. it is.). 10 out of 10 ppl will have different opinions about it, some of them will like it some won't, and others won't be phased about it at all. btw your cropping was always one of the best things I liked about your icons, so I def side with person A.

[merihn.livejournal.com]

I'm not saying this just because we're friends... but that's just fucked. I really like your icons. The cropping is always great, and your colouring is perfect.

But, HAHAHA about them disagreeing like that. You know, it would help if they actually AGREED.

I don't think anyone sees the same, or we would not get diversity (and it would be boring). their loss, I say.
