Wow really?! I never knew that! But now that I think of it, there are a LOT of great drawings that don't get the credit they should get! I've seen some great drawings, and there is like only 3 votes on it, and it was posted a few weeks ago! And it also seems like a lot of people spend their time looking at Naruto drawings more then anything else, even my avatar is one of my drawings and it has like only 17 votes. (It's from the host club. I also worked hard on it, and their has been over 100 people who have looked it. But only 9 commented on it, really nice comments, but 9......)But you are SOO RIGHT!! I think it is because people are getting lazy, how hard is it to vote, or even leave a comment?! (Awesome drawing btw!^-^)
Ah, yes I truly agree, like the rest of you.
Even if people don't vote I think they should at least comment, and tell us what they think of our art. Even if you hate it you should always comment. Even the ugliest and most amatuerist pictures have something good about them so point that out. Remember, all of us artists have to start somewhere and if we don't get good comments with constructive criticism we're going to have a hard time improving. And getting no feedback from you could make some give up.
So good for you caosgoth!
Nice work, by the way. I like the character design! ^^
i kno what u mean. my nice pics don't really hav any comments. one of my pics has only 4 comments, that's the highest of all my pics. caosgoth, it's that neko sasuke one for the contest, u commented on it. and thanx for that, cuz your not too lazy to do it.
Yeah! I have pics fom paint that have only like 5 votes. one has 12 and it takes me over 2 hrs to do some. Darkshadowangel14 is right. ppl need to vote more.
I know what you mean about the voting/commenting issue. I'm still kinda new to this site, so I don't expect to get too many comments, I guess. (I think the highest amount I got for a drawing was six comments.^^;;) Anyway, awesome work, effort, and dedication!
I completely agree with you! My art gets around ( well usually ) a hundred views... And MAYBE 5 or 7 votes... Oh well it's upi to people whether they like it or not, but they could at least comment on why they dislike it
I agree with you on every level
ANd your picture is so cute!
Very true! ^0^ The voting went down so much since when the site first started. Let's all start commenting and voting more! :D Way to motivate everyone!^^
*votes*
BTW, kawaii expression.^^

I agree! There are people out there putting all their time and effort to do art trades and art requests and other arts ands still dont get the votes they deserve, i worked on a pic that took me like more than 1 hour and i shaded it (which i rarely do) and it only has 4 votes, so i felt really upset. a pic that i drew when i was 11 had 12 votes!! mi goodness, i kinda wish i didnt submit that art but o well. ill vote for this!!*vote*
Your right people dont comment on art enough these days Im no exeption but I do comment most of the time and the only times I dont comment is when Im looking at art in class because I allways making sure the teacher doesnt see what Im doing other then that I allways comment if I can
I think I undestand what u say and I have seen ur 100% right .People used to vote commnet more dont know why.Maybe its because now the page is more competitive and there are more pics around .Or maybe the quality just go up dont know .For me the votes are not so important like comments .Maybe we should make a crusaide because I c u do comment a lot and vote a lot .Thats what I like the most of you u care for people .U even have more comments than me and thats to be proud of .Sorry If i havent been around lately Carmen I still have missed u a lot .
How is ur request thinking going :P .I think on ur request I will join the crusaid.

Ya, people are pretty lazy.You have good talent.I haven't seen skill like this for a while.Work on it a bit and you could even start your own show.(: You really have portencial and you know you must be good if you are getting a postive comment from me.I'm usually known as a downer.I'd like to make friends with you.If you can... try talking to me.I'd love to see you draw Temari.Or Shikamaru,Jakotsu,Bankotsu, Berry,Ichigo,Tasku, or Ryou.As you can see I'm a mager anime fan.
I always get less than 10 votes, but oh well. (Um maybe twice.)
Ah, well... I agree with you Caosgoth. About your art, I like it very much. You have cute and beautiful drawings and I like the way you colour.
One thing to say, many people viewed an artwork, but too lazy to comment OR vote! I'm with'cha all tha wayy~ -^_^-
For starters, beautiful picture! Your style pwns! Mmmhmm ^^ *Nods*
Okay, people ARE lazy. I love Naruto, but people spend too much time there. It is my favorite show, but as an art enthusiast as well, I understand how it is. So I go through the recent fanart section instead and look at EVERY category. Original Anime may have some random Mary-Sue's (-_-), but there is some really good art in there too. Like have you seen Lare??? She has tons of beautiful artwork in the Original Anime section, and is SO FLIPPIN' NICE, but sometimes, people spend time in Naruto sections instead of looking at art like hers because that is all they think about. You are absolutely right Caosgoth, way to tell them! ^_^ *Votes and Favorites*
Note: There is nothing wrong with Naruto, and it is okay to draw it, I mean, I do, and so does Caosgoth! She is an EXCELLENT Naruto artist! I am not insulting Naruto or anyone who bases art off of it, I am only saying that people should not only spend more time voting on hard-working artists, but should also expand their options. Who knows what amazing artist can be found in that one section you decided to skim over???

wee you TELL EM' Ihcati! i've only been here since August so i dobn't know what cha mean bout the old days but i know when i go into an artwork unless it REALLY is majorly terrible i try to vote for it. it builds confidence in a person =]
~the Akatsuki are Watching~
*Ustez*
The otaku was different back then..I say it was a little more funner back then to XD
I don't really care if I don't get votes or comments :3 if I get alot of views I get happeh!
I couldn't agree with you more! i work very hard on every single one of my pics and even though people view them ALOT i barley get ANY votes!! T_T oh well, mabye people just don't like me? lol keep up the good work^_^
i totally agree!!! it makes me so mad sometimes, cause stuff that i work hard on, gets like, three votes (and then i cry...). so i agree!!! we should try more!
haseo
I agree, I see wonderful artwork all the time, but no comments. You get tons of views, but you get very little comments.
I hope this inspires everyone for once. -sighs- I mean, the older pictures have more votes, even if there are newer and better ones.
Yeah yeah I totally agree with u caosgoth :D
Most of people just see and leave without comment or vote :(
Why they r so lazy like that? :|
By the way ur pic is so nice :D
Vote and favorite :D
yea u r right caosgoth. ive been really wanting to read comments on stuff so i know what to improve on and such but when i check my commetns there's like...3?its stupid! well here! have my comment and vote!!!
thank u for saying this!!!
i support ya!

Master of Kittehs (Otaku Eternal) | Posted 05/12/07 | Reply
i get like 100 views on something and no one comments/votes.. and i dont think my stuff is bad.. like i just submitted a naruto pic cuz i wanted ppl to see it only 9 votes and 1 comment it's quite depressing actually XD
u'r totally right Caos, i feel ashamed at myself for underapprecieating the awesome artists of Otaku and i pay no attention to the 'VOTE' box.
i hope you get over 100 votes for this^^
Well I wasn't here through those years but still! A lot of art work is underestimated!
I'm tired of it vote peoples! Vote for the artist DX It isn't that hard to click the word "vote."
*favs*
You're right! Because encouragement makes artists like us do better and improve quicker!
I mean, people who put time and effert into their work may feel bad that they don't get appreciation for what they wanted to accomplish. =) I think I'm gonna go vote and comment some stuff now!
I agree i see lots good art work that barely gets votes. i barely get votes the highest i got is 8. It's not really fair to people that put effort into things just to be overlooked. btw great pic
Little Sayu (Otaku Eternal) | Posted 05/12/07 | Reply
I definitely agree with you!!^^
Yeah, a lot of the new art doesn't get much these days.... I barely get comments on mine, but maybe that's just because I' m not that popular. and I'm okay with that! ^^ Just as long as I have friends!^^
Well said!! *votes* Great job!
Yes, yes I completely agree. A drawing I have that I barely call art that I drew back in 2004 got way--- more votes than any of my art now and I've greatly improved. I applaud you!
Now for what these comment boxes are for: excellent shading, pose, and proportions. It deserves 70+ votes!
YOU GO GIRL!!! TELL THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!, when I see a pic and it may kind of *cough* suck. I still vote and fav and tell them great job and keep trying! I hope everyone hears your message!
I agree with everyone who has commented this picture informing people to vote so far! I don't think they understand that we like votes and comments...but when it comes to the people that don't c/v get mad because people don't c/v this works...
.............
OMG!
My mom just read this and agreed with this comment! Akward....!
ANYWHO!
Awsome picture, line, and coloring!

(Chibitarded *83)
P.S. I've Been Working On Commenting and Voting More!
OMG, i totally agree. i've noticed that lately too, i might get like, 12 votes and 1 comment on a pic. i don't understand it, PPL! are you all really that lazy or did all the nice ppl die!?!??
It's true that a lot of artists are under-rated probably due to drawing more original or not-as-popular fanart but I think art from a few years ago have more votes is because theOtaku didn't have that stupid 3 month time limit to vote on pictures
But anyways, about your actual piccie . . your Naruto OC has a such a cute outfit ! ^_^ I also like the weapons floating around in the back hehe
-_- i agree with you. i think its just very lazy an un-otaku of ppl. anyway, this is kool. great shading an im definitely voting, cuz your awesome BTW !!!!
~Ai-chan
i think your right, too. i, myself, BARELY get FIVE VOTES for a pictures!! and some friends on the otaku also dont get many votes, when we ALL WORK HARD on our pictures before we post them, and at least deserve credit for trying!!! it's really unfair.
i read all the comments for this, most are by senior otaku's who have been here long enough to realize the same thing that you said is completely true.
i could go on but that would be stupid. ^^" you get it, i totally agree.
omg! thats exactly what i thought! i kept comparing votes back then and votes now and i thought i was crazy! but very exelent artists on here are not getting the credit that they should! vote and comment people! it wont kill u to make someone happy! >.< but i'll definitly vote and fav this! ^-^
-dOOdlelOver
A agree with you one hindred percent Caos!
There are a lot of good artist out there that aren't getting the crdit that they rightfully deserve.
*votes*
I can totally agree. I admit to getting lazy with commenting, but lately, I've been pumping out comments. Some people jsut don't have the time though. There are a lot of artists here... with a lot of submissions.
