you will always get someone passing a negative comment just for the sake of it.
Bit rough mate.. hardly for the sake of it.
Accolades only forum now?
It's pinball and pinball people are far too precious, any hint of a opinion or idea that is not to the masses liking and the pitchforks come out.
These people need to get over themselves big time.
not accolades only forum but just don't see the reason for people to bag out something it is a project done by one guy, different story when you have a company that spends millions on a pin design. hats off to Dave on his solo effort plus I think it looks professional.
when it comes to personal stuff that people work on I am a firm believer of constructive criticism if I feel it is needed or asked for and if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it. It's not about being a yes man and you don't have to be a no man either just about being polite.
+1 I think it looks very cool. I've been a big fan of pretty much everything Joss Whedons done also, particularly Buffy and Firefly. Great work there.
