I prefer constructive criticism from the crowd rather than two word replies like:
"it's good!" "nice work!"
I mean, it's great to have praise to know what you are doing works well, but its probably more important to realize the need to improve a certain area in order to increase the praise.
I found that when I went to a certain other msgboard, that everyone would praise the designers effort, and make almost zero suggestions. I would likely be one of the few people (plz excuse if I sounded boastful) making a "harsh" criticism, which would invariably fall on deaf ears.
It's a bit frustrating really, and made me wonder what was the point of the board if people who submitted their work knew what they were going to change in the first place, regardless of user input.
That's why I am happy to come here, as I know NTers will be very honest and harsh (yet hopefully constructive), and I suppose thats the way it should be, for as the saying goes:
"When all men think alike, no one thinks very much."
