just to concur with what some other people have written above, designers are forced to deal with a lot of negtivity... i'm sure we've all slaved away on projects we thought were great and had someone tell us they were shite... this being the most difficult when you have no respect for that person's taste, but theyre in a position to force us to compromise our work. some of that negativeity is bound to come out here.
pretty easy to lose your self confidence in this profession too... people a little down on self confidence do tend to be a bit more negative.
but, sometimes negativity spurs thought, so its not always a bad thing. the discussion would be pretty lame if we always agreed on everything.
i think our community could be more supportive of each other sometimes... in an attempt to generate good karma i once vowed to send an email to the creator of any site i was impressed by... it only lasted about half a day though. maybe i'll try again.
